I hope you get some relief, Theodosia.
Relief ~ma for msbelle too. Girl parts are deeply flawed. Mine did me a favor and opted for a quiet early retirement about 7 years ago.
The financial stuff is crazy making. It is difficult to read about in depth without getting very worried. I own no stock and only have a couple hundred in my WaMu account. I'm not concerned about my personal accounts, but the economy as a whole is very scary. Guess we are lucky we have dedicated public servants like McCain trying to duck out of the debate suspending his personal interests for the good of the country. I sure hope he can stay the hell out of the way of people who might be able to do something help solve our problems.
I guess that's a general background "were you happy with your job?" question but still, given what we know happened to that company, quite ironic. At least you weren't there when the shit hit the fan.
ita, I feel for your wakiness. I was up from 1-4 this morning. Feeling sort of groggy as a result.
I could, theoretically, pile the kids in the van to take the laptop in to be fixed and stop by for a pumpkin spice latte.
I am immensely grateful right now to be working (a) in a relatively recession-proof industry (television) and (b) for a non-American company.
Now if only I could convince them to pay me in sterling, I'd be set.
Yeah, I think people need to keep people like me employed in hard times, so I'm not overly worried about not having a job, BUT my job is so dependent on other people doing well that it could be kind of a nightmare for the next few years.
If McCain is elected and then dies - why doesn't Palin become President?

Hee. I work for an American investment company. In better shape than a lot of companies, though.
GA: Why do I watch this? Okay - yes I
miss Kevin McKidd in Journeyman but could it be that my desire for more Journeyman has blinded me to chemistry between his character and Christina? Because I didn't think that kiss was hot. Also - THAT was the amount of JDM we get?
Sheesh.
I also watched er. I think I can safely not watch it again unless
they get the actual Clooney. Also - so few of those people knew who Carter was - how long has it been?
Happy Birthday 2, Matilda!!!
