has anyone heard from VW?? A lil worried. I've been skimming a lil. But.

IOmeN. I played my first poker night at new job. Texas Hold'em (of course). I kinda hate that game. But I came in 3rd!! Doubled my money! $10. Bad news is, I gotta be at work tomorrow. :: sigh:: I shouldn't be. Grrrr.

So, rainy season?

Is RAINY.

Which is all well and good when you are (a) indoors or (b) in a taxi (except when the taxi starts to float), but not so good when you are (c) obliged to walk.

Seriously. At first I was squeaking with distress as my shoes filled with water when I stepped in an inch or two of puddle. A little later, as we were fording our way down the middle of the road almost knee-deep and my shoes were in danger of floating away, and I was alternating between howls of laughter and threatening assertions that the goddamn restaurant BETTER BE REALLY GOOD INDEED, I had a slightly better sense of perspective on those puddles. I was also trying really hard NOT to think about my coworker getting one of the thumb-sized cockroaches up his trousers when he did the same thing last year. It didn't occur to me to worry about snakes, though - which my friend, in her lovely high heels, was more than half expecting to stumble across.

Particularly impressive, back when we were trying to avoid walking calf-deep through the water, was the point at which all four of us (dressed up to the nines) flung umberellas over a fence and scrabbled over it, only to realise a few paces later that we were still going to have to plunge back into the water once we got to the end of this brief island of comparative dryness.

I can't remember laughing harder for Quite. Some. Time.

(By the time we left the restaurant, several hours later, the street was bone dry. Business as usual.)

Most of the channels on my television are frozen again. This is the third day in a row. I don't think my cable company understands the importance of season premieres or baseball games.

a meara...I hate that I'm barely getting on the computer any more!

So much job~ma for Matt and Tom!

Okay, I need to shower and get to the hospital again.

Driving into work this morning, I had a big spot on my windshield towards the top. Thankfully I resisted the urge to hit the wipers to smear it away, as it was a HUGE lady bug. Which got me to thinking, have we heard from VW? How ya doing VW??? {{{VW}}}}

Awww! You're so sweet! I'm doing ok. I made it to campus and work yesterday, so I'm pretty proud of myself about that. I'm gonna see how things go this weekend, but if they stay this crappy, I'll e-mail my shrink on Monday and tell him I'm bumping the meds back up. I don't want to do that, but I also have to be functional right now.

{{{Suzi and CJ}}}

Oh, Hec. That sucks. I'm sorry. I hope something comes along really soon!

has anyone heard from VW?? A lil worried. I've been skimming a lil. But.

Oh, you. You're so sweet. I'm so sorry I made you worried. I'm just really busy. I'm doing ok. Hanging in there, and CBD is here for the weekend.

Omnis, I heard from vw yesterday. She was neck deep in school work and a bit stressed, but otherwise okay.

eta: Heh. x-post. Figures. You couldn't wait 5 minutes, miss?

Heh. Sorry, Deena! MWAH!

Oh, Deena! They fixed my cell phone! So, we can return to our dinner-time phone calls!

Good morning, xposty girls. Stay dry, Fay!

Ike is pushing south a bit. The Keys are still going to be evacuated, but it looks a bit less likely for a direct hit. This is a huge relief.

Hanna's hitting us today. Stay dry and safe everyone!
