Oh, honey. ::cuddles you::

You're still wonderful and awesome, even if you are surrounded by suck, you know.

Erin, I can tell you I've been there. I'm sorry you're going through this. You will prevail even if the meantime looks bleak.

Thanks, I'm going to bed.

(((((Erin, Hil, and erika)))) I hope tomorrow is much better for all of you.

My stomach is having a total meltdown. My body can take a day off from being evil any time now.

Sending happy thoughts to Hil, erika and Erin - may you have better days today.

I had my yearly consultation with my EDS consultant. She is a lovely lady, but she still managed to make me cry. Am in a cafe consoling myself with tea and a danish pastry.

When I get home I will post more Wake Up With Hugh Laurie. This could become a regular event.

(((Seska))) I hope the tea helps.

I'm sorry Hil, erikaj, erin, and Seska. It sounds like the crap fairy singled you out for her attention. (The flighty little bitca.)

I'm awake after about 3 hours sleep. This is about as enjoyable as you might expect. The cat loves it, because when I can't sleep I figure I might as well pet him. So my little snuggle beast got pettings for about 6 hours last night.

Maybe he's spiking my tonic water with caffeine. Hmmmmmm.

{{Bitches}} Sorry about the abundance of suckitude.

Thanks for putting the link in Press, Erika. I don't like that there are so many rage worthy issues out there, but I like the way you get your rage on.

I suppose I should get to work now. Blah.

Oi, Bitches. May today be a better day for all of us. FTR, I was just overly annoyed by people who were apparently unable to do simple tasks for themselves and the male half of a couple we know who is divorcing and has told his wife that he no longer wants to see his children on the weekends because he likes to have those days free.

Hivemind, I need you tell me how to read the following email situation. A woman in the neighborhood has been trying to organize a playgroup for young'uns on the weekends for those of us who work full-time. Her initial email was about 6 weeks ago, when she also announced that she'd be too busy to do anything through October. The other day, she sent an email and floated the idea of meeting Sat. Nov 14. I sent my regrets, and told her my parents were in town that day. Here is her reply:

Funny, my folks are in town from the 17th through that next weekend, but that doesn't mean we can't all meet up at the park if there's good weather.

There's nothing after that except, "Hope to hear from you soon," and I can't read that sentence as anything but kind of nasty, especially from someone who put the rest of us off for 6 weeks. I think because she begins it with "Funny...".

But, you know me, I'm evil and think mean things. Perhaps a nicer person gets a different read?

Now, off to read what erika has written...

I would find that off-putting. (And confusing since her parents aren't actually in town on the weekend in question so what the fuck does that mean?)
