Timelies.
I am very tired. Also annoyed at things and happy about other things that I read, but that was this morning, and then I took a nap, and now I've forgotten what they are, except that Daniel is a very good boyfriend. (Dollar stores often have whirligigs!)
Greg and I went to Context 21 this last weekend and sent the kids to stay with Nick. The guy creating the schedule had multiple bad things happen and handed it off to another guy. There were no people on several panels, and so I said I would help and to put me wherever. I ended up on 4 panels. I also seemed to have been the only one who did much research on those panels. The first one was me telling people how to build their own websites, but the AV equipment was down, so I couldn't show them. Then there was "genre labels" (BAD! no GOOD!), for which 7 people eventually showed up. Then there was "Working with Small Press Publishers" which ended up being a platform for one of the publishers to tell everyone to make their own small press and publish their own work themselves. That was ... interesting. Then, Sunday morning, was "Christianity and Horror" which was supposed to be about horror tropes ganked from religion, but ended up being more about "demons are real; ask me how."
When we got back to Nick's at about 7:00pm Sunday night, Aidan had a fever and Kara was starving because she hadn't eaten anything since breakfast. Big brother had them on the rock star life plan.
I've been recovering ever since.
{{{Deena}}} I hope you and the kids feel better soon.
{{{All the other sickies today}}}
Oh lawd Deena. What a trooper you are. I hope you were properly thanked. Sheesh.
Deena, you are so amazingly gracious and awesome. Seriously. I hope you feel better soon!
dear fevers: cut it out, mkay?
Do I recall correctly that I can use olive oil to remove mascara or did I dream that? I don't have any cold cream.

Yes you can. Just wash your face thoroughly afterward.
Dear sickly people, I hope you feel better soon.

I have made some REALLY BAD food choices today. I blame PMS, and should probably go for a walk this afternoon. A very long walk.
sorry it wasn't much fun.
I have the cold . Have to be crafty today for tomorrows story time. Tomorrow is a pot luck at the library. Usually I am one of the stars. Not sure I will be cooking for this one. Bah
thanks Jilli. Those makeup artists did make me very pretty but it was weird looking in the mirror. I feel like myself again and it only took 7 cotton balls.

Is anyone dead? Does anyone have some sort of office implement sticking out of them (pens, letter openers, phone handset, etc.)? No? Then not a bad food choice.

Okay, fair point. I didn't even yell at any of my writers during the meeting this morning.
