Javachick, have you ever read Blankets?
Nope. Should I?

It's an excellent book. It sounds very similar to your own experiences. I don't know if that's a good thing, though.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I know I shouldn't find that funny, all things considered, but HEE!
You were the person I was thinking of when I posted that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I cannot find a comfortable position. I suspect there won't be one until tomorrow. But the nerves on the left side of C3-C7 (well, at least the useless ones) should be dead.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Ugh, ita. I hope you find one sooner than that.
You were the person I was thinking of when I posted that.I figured that might be true.
Apart from the zombie death cold, today hasn't actually been that bad. I haven't gotten yelled at (yet?), and I got out of a dead end project because the partner thought I was out today too.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
That's not good ita, not good at all. You did not need to go to the doctor in order to not be comfortable, I'm sure you could have managed that on your own.
Anything I can do to help?

yuck, ita. No good on the discomfort. Poor thing.
I can't believe I've squandered another perfectly good day.
Also, The 10% failure rate. Ugh. What irks me even more than that is if someone promised me a 90% chance of winning the lottery everytime I played, I'd be thrilled. 10% = not perfect of course, but good lord, better than your odds of 50% otherwise!

Hey Sparky, I meant to tell you. The former manager of chateau animaux, the lovable Jay, is opening a kid's consignment shop a block and a half from my house. It will be open 1st-ish of March.
It's called Monkey's Uncle, and they are doing it all 'green'.
I'm sure Takoma has great shops too, but I know this one is going to be great.

me too over here. Okay, I got one syllabus written but that isn't enough work to justify having come in today. Oh well.
