Gave up on trying to sleep and have gotten in an hours worth of work so far. Oh joy.

Natter 64: Yes, we still need you
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Up early to call in sick. I think the fact that I had a coughing fit and lost my voice by the end of a 30 second voice mail message should convince my boss I'm not just trying to extend my holiday. Back to bed now.
If, God forbid, something were to happen to one of your kids -- you (or they) wouldn't get the say on the punishment due the perpetrator.
I know, Cindy, and you're right and the justice system is the way it is for a reason, even if a large part of me personally feels that the victim should get a larger say in a matter that concerns her. I feel as if the justice system failed her back then, because of the way it's set up, and now it feels like too little, too late, at least for her, but that in the end, it serves the greater good. Or should, in theory.
What it boils down to is I just wish the SOB had served his time back in the day.
In a separate post, Yay, CJ!
And ugh, Sue, hope you feel better.
Sue, I hope you feel better soon.
I would very much like a sick day. I think I need one to just sleep in and spend a day at home alone.
I had weird dreams again last night. The setting, the "subway", which in my dream was not a enclosed subway car, but much more like an open roller coaster thing, and the tunnel was unlit and had a dirt floor. you were on the same level as the tracks and if you missed the "train" you were left in the pitch black. I never did determine how people got down or exited these "stations". In my dream, I was down in there for a mayorial candidate speaking tour. I think I have election burn-out.
I feel horribly for his victim having to continue to deal with the publicity of this. He, apparently, has felt just fine with letting her do so for three decades.
Exactly.
One of my neighbors let me know her trash can disappeared too! Jeez, who knew stinky trash cans were such a hot commodity?
Feel better, Sue!

There must be a ring of thieves in your neighborhood!
I have just gotten to the office, and already want to stab people. Good times.
Stupid thieving thieves! We have people at my office who steal the freebie company logo coffee mugs. ridic. they steal ones with your name on them even. Doesn't everyone have a couple of extra coffee mugs at home, like gifts that don't match your stuff? why steal the ones EVERYONE WAS GIVEN FOR FREE?!!? I brought in a very unique one from home and them went on very loudly that if it went missing I would walk the floor and shamelessly harrass whomever had it. I also try to get it out of the washing machine in the mornings and keep it in my desk. stupid thieving stupidheads.
