Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Museuming with Omnis was lots of fun. Then I came home, ate dinner, took a nap, and am now watching a documentary on Jerome Robbins.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Frak! Omnis, I totallly missed you.
Well, the night is young, and the... oh hell, 1) that sounds on the verge of pervy, 2) weather sucks, and 3) I'm sore from walking past two days, and I got two more days to go. If you want to drive to Bethesda, c'mon up! Tomorrow I'm at the Newseum. Want to do lunch?

Now I'm looking at the two bus tours in DC, thinking about Friday. We got a group of folks, vast majority from out of town. We want to hit a bunch of places not near subway stops, but they ARE near all the stops of the bus rides! Eh? Cheaper than cab fare! And we can all ride in one vehicle. Brilliant? or stupid?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Okay. I've watched 3 episodes of LOST (well, 2 1/2), done my back exercises (ow fucking hell ass OW), eaten pizza, taken magnesium/calcium (allegedly good for sleep), and taken a whole 10-mg Ambien (I usually only take half).

I'm about to toddle off to bed, and I damned well had better sleep for at least 7 hours.

As should ALL OF YOU. Sleep tight, insomniac Bitches!

Yeah, tonight I'm going to take magnesium/calcium and probably half an Ambien, because wow, sleep would be nice.

Sleep well, my fellow insomniacs!

I swear by it...or sleep by it, as the case may be.

Sweet dreams!

OK, job hunting Bitches: is it weird to not have a reference from my current (of almost a year) job? Since I work from home, and only occasionally go out and work "with" other employees, there aren't too many people who could really give me much of a reference other than my boss. And obviously he's right out. There are a few people I suppose I ask, but I feel like it would be a little weird, and they're definitely not anyone I worked with MUCH, or who had any sort of supervisory capacity (and...honestly, not anyone that I'm thinking I had the kind of relationship where I'd get a glowing reference. We worked OK together, but...) My boss would give me a good one, but only if I'd gotten laid off or something.

I do have a good reference from my two managers two jobs ago (where I worked for four years) and from my manager at my previous job (but I was only there several months before I was laid off). If needed, I can reach farther back, but it's been a while.

How important is all that? I've never job hunted while employed before, or while so isolated from coworkers, so I've always had handy RECENT references!

Now tagless for your comfort.

sleep~ma for everyone!

IOmeN, Charter cable is a big ripoff. With the digital divide starting yesterday, they've gone and cut my expanded basic back to basic saying that's all I'm paying for. Yeah, because I have internet and part of the package was getting expanded basic for the price of basic. Now, in order to get what I was getting, I have to get a digital box and pay for the expanded basic. I'll do it, but I'm going to look into seeing what else is out there, maybe Dish.

Fucking Charter. They've got us by the short & curlies because we're in a wooded area an there's no way we can get decent reception with a dish. And there's no real competition up here for them. Needless to say, we pay through the nose.

Really? I'm taking it for bones and joints. I didn't know about the sleep thing.
