I am all eager to read a Fay-inspired Barb column (I never ever comment because I suck, but I always read all the Buffista columns, the Barb and ND and MM and beth and all--and Hec really needs to be more aggressive about pimping his Hilobrow entries).
ION, Dear My Brain:
The back-in-college-senior-thesis-due-today-I-forgot-the-bibliography anxiety dream Tuesday night was not exactly fun, but the serial-killer-stalks-a-little-boy-and-remorselessly-murders-an-entire-hospital-ward-to-mindfuck-him nightmare that woke me at 2:30 this morning and kept me up until, well, now? Seriously NOT ON. I'm placing an order right now for fluffy bunnies tonight. Fluffy, non-carnivorous bunnies at play in fields of dandelions. I have to work all day, every day, at a place where Vendetta Doc was just handed three promotions that make her queen of our tiny little universe. I need to be awake and functional, not shaky and exhausted and twitching at shadows.
Fluffy bunnies. Fields of dandelions. A notable absence of bloodthirsty monsters. Please?
Not a fluffy bunny, but an adorable Chocolate Lab puppy:
Winston the Lab, work your puppy magic and help JZ have happy dreams tonight.
Are you going to start by saying, "My presentation - let me show you it"?
Are you going to start by saying, "My presentation - let me show you it"?
Probably more professional than "Ceiling cat is watching you masturbate."
Good
Grief,
JZ! That sounds truly hideous!
Here! Have some cute bunnies!
Bad JZ brain, no biscuit. I had a dream this morning involving people peeping at me under a bathroom stall door and a plum-sized circle of necrotic flesh on my calf for no apparent reason. This is why I shouldn't hit snooze for an hour, among other reasons.
They haven't turned the heat on at work yet. The thermostat says 67 but it's always colder in here than it says (v. high ceilings). I'm wearing a hat and scarf and fingerless gloves. And I'm not happy!
In better news, it's Donut Day and I have hot coffee.
I haven't done my MDT for several days now, and the anxiety is starting to build. I think I'm going to gather momentum by doing several easier tasks first.
Are you going to start by saying, "My presentation - let me show you it"?
No, but I have worked in "This is why we can't have nice things." Even though I still can't figure out how that meme arose.
{{{JZ}}} Hate those kind of nightmares. HATE.
P-C, you'll do great. Whenever I've done those sorts of talks, I've gotten so nervous about it but after about 5 minutes, you loosen up. As long as you know your material, you can't really go wrong.
Power came on at some point in the night. We went to bed around 10 and they were still working on it. I woke up at some point and saw that the nightlight was on, did an internal squee, and went back to sleep. We had to dump everything in our fridge and freezer. Being powerless sucks!
