Oh, geez. Y'all think your various maternal relatives can inspire guilt trips?

Harvey has gone from sitting on my desk, not quite looking at me, purring very pointedly, to loudly licking Sammie's dish in my hearing. Cat supper time is in 15 minutes, but he doesn't think I should keep to schedule.

(I do have a favorite story from that incident. Being a less sane person that Kristin, I spent all night pacing, screaming in pain and pretty much randomly taking any medicine I had, then drove myself to urgent care and was pacing back and forth in front of the door when it opened at 8 a.m. My friends yelled at me, at length, for not calling them to take me to the ER. One said, "The next time you have organs exploding inside you, call me!")

I'm not that sane. The rupture happened Monday afternoon. I know because whoo baby I felt it. I didn't get myself to Urgent Care until Tuesday afternoon when the pain had escalated steadily and all of the medications I'd been trying stopped working...and I didn't get to the ER until just before midnight once I'd hit weeping-in-a-ball-on-the-bed-in-pain mode.

Sean, I'm sorry to hear you're having such a down day. I'm glad you're getting out tonight.

I love Edible Arrangements. They're my favorite non-flowers flower-type gift.

The Sound of Music is on TV!

And it reminded me that I wanted to look up some info on Austrian history. But I so don't have the concentration tonight to keep track of all the Hapsburgs. (European borders are confusing. I don't think I can understand any of this unless I have a book with a lot of good maps.)

It was supposed to be a light day of work. Mostly just being a presence. It turned into 9 hours of pure running around. I just finished some brunchner. Sitting in evil chair with leg muscles burning from all the running. I am doomed to pass out in it, I'm sure. And I'm out of ice cream. Cross your fingers that the show goes well tonight so I don't have to go in tomorrow.

Pix, how are ya?

Sean, hope the spirits raise with the night out.

Sean, I hope the night out helps.

Y'know, I've watched Sound of Music dozens of times, and it wasn't until just now, reading the wikipedia article on Georg von Trapp, that I made the connection that Captain von Trapp was a captain in the Navy, and Austria is a landlocked country. He'd been in the Austro-Hungarian navy, but then was out of a job when the Austro-Hungarian Empire broke up after WWI and Austria no longer needed ships. Also, the place where he was born is now part of Croatia. (I so need a map.)

Thanks for the great suggestions - I may end up going with Edible Arrangements. Sorry for ditching after asking, mom took me out to a nice dinner.

Strange thing happened on the way hone - I had my right hand leaning against the window and my wrist rolled over, kinda like when you roll your ankle and end up spraining it. Yep, sprained my wrist doing nothing more than riding along in the car. Hurts like heck and I feel utterly pathetic.

I wish Edible Arrangements delivered here! They look amazing.

I'm buying this t-shirt.

I have two big things I need to get done and neither one is very appealing. One is going out to the garage and getting things organized for the big upcoming projects. The other one is firing up my CAD software and getting the single line diagrams for the systems for Halloween Horror Nights completed.

I need to check if Edible Arrangements delivers here. Being the moon, though, I'm not holding out much hope. This county doesn't even have Starbucks or Target why would I expect anything amazing to be delivered here.

ND, those don't sound like the most appealing of tasks. I would probably attack the organization first over the CAD.

Edible Arrangements will deliver here. OK that almost gets the area a point.
