We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Usually the 24th is a work day, but we're furloughed the 24th and Jan. 4th this year, so that whole stretch everything is closed (and they turn off the power and lower the heat and basically shut all the way down, the whole campus.)

Huh. We're off the 24th and 25th, open 28th-30th, forced vacation day on 31st, closed on 1st. Most people are taking the 28th - 30th, but I am not, as previously noted.

tommyrot, did you post that coilhouse link here? B/c now I have a fantasy RockLove shopping cart that has $277 worth of jewelry in it, damn you. And I'm in serious lust with Blue Anchor, as well. Speaking of, check these out for your favorite True Blood fanatic... [link]

We're off starting the 23rd, and don't come back until the 4th. And we're complaining because it's only 12 days. Like flea's U., the heat is off during that time. Spoiled!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

tommyrot, did you post that coilhouse link here?

Yep.

Buuuyyyyy eeeeeeeet!

So if I'm having trouble sleeping at night due to free-floating anxiety issues, should I drink less coffee, even if I only drink coffee in the morning?

This is why I've basically given up caffeine (I'll sometimes have an ice coffee on Friday's/the day before a day off from work), and it's definitely helped.

On the alchohol front, my doctor told me that while the initial effects are depressive to the system, the alchohol will convert to sugar eventually which can also affect sleep. Didn't really stop my level of drinking, however.

On a grammar note (per a recent conversation here or in bitches) was that a correct use of effect and affect?

My university sucks. ::pouts::

Buuuyyyyy eeeeeeeet!

Hmph. Not until I get my flex reimbursement and see what money I get for Xmas. And even then there's no way I can buy it all. I'll have to remember that site for Valentine's Day.

I think I'm a hugger, but I've become so paranoid about offending a non-hugger accidentally that I wind up seeming more standoffish and non-huggy than I'd otherwise be.

I would actually like less time off over the winter break. I get really tired of my kids, especially last year when we didn't travel. But I can see the value in shutting down the heat and stuff.

One of my goals today is get receipts for my FSA turned in. As I was looking through our company website, I discovered that there is some unadvertised company matching FSA $. Plus there is something called an HRA that has a very large amount listed as available for reimbursement. I have no clue what the HRA is or if I really have access to that money. If so - woot! Have sent a note off to HR saying WTF (in nicer language, of course).
