Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Now tagless for your comfort.

They even asked if they could touch the hernia, so I let them. But still, not so much with the understanding of time. I think I'll be tender for a while

Liv was fascinated by my drainage tubes. I'd show her so she knew why she couldn't hug me for a week. But even 3 year olds can grok "be gentle with Mommy."

Is this where I tell Plei about the St Joseph Home Selling kit: [link]

Burrell, I hope the surgery goes well.

I have the day off, and I am spending it doing Xmas errands for other people. It's not a good thing. My sister asked me to go to a store and pick up a Canada Olympic hoodie for my SiL. She called the store yesterday and was told they had plenty in stock. I get there and they tell me that they've been sold out for weeks. It's a 30min bus ride each way to that store. Man, was I pissed.

Burrell, when I was high-risk pregnant with C. and couldn't have then three-year-old B. climbing on me or lift him, I just went down on my knees straight away whenever he came up to me. That way there could still be gentle hugging and cuddling. My trousers suffered a bit but that was the least of my worries.

Best of luck to you, and Gute Besserung to all the other sick people around here.

Whoot! I just got an excellent performance review, which will impact my bonus and (probably) merit increase.

Sadly, I otherwise feel like hammered shit. I think I may be coming down with something (though it may just be a case of the Mondays).

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yay, Frank! Ummm..the good review part. Not the hammered shit part.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, I've never really worked with a headhunter before, and she wants to talk to me before and after I go to the client tomorrow. Can anyone tell me what to expect from these conversations?

I was so glad when I had my wisdom teeth out that the kids were in school/daycare all day.
