So the person who was supposed to come pick me up about 5:00 so that I could get back to the dealership before the loaner car person left at 5:45 seems to be MIA.
Jayne, your mouth is talking. You might wanna look to that.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
Guy: I do, I love food.
This reminds me of the scene in Julie & Julia when Julia is talking with her husband about what she likes to do, and she says with her typical brio, "Eat!! And I'm very good at it, too!"
I got part of my Christmas present from Mom in a box from Amazon, and decided to open some of them since they were wrapped in blue corduroy bags (very nice ones, too!) and I could figure out what they were. A 12" cast iron skillet is a bit hard to disguise when it's inside a cloth bag, and the lid goes with it. Boy, are they heavy when they're together!!
(I actually know what else was in the box since I mistakenly opened the shipping list that was in the envelope that said right on the cover "Do not open until after you open your presents!" But I didn't tell Mom and won't open them until Xmas Eve.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was just saying yesterday that people sometimes make fun of me for enjoying my food too much, but I say, if you can get actual enjoyment three times every day, why not??
Also, on the space tip, I brought warm water to choir practice in my JPL travel cup. Brilliant.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Woe are my abs! My entire torso is soreness. And wrestling all those groceries and the new shredder up a flight of stairs is bound to not help.
Man, I wish I'd earned this pain honestly.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I have a loaner car! I am home! I already got the FSA check I sent in the paperwork on last Tuesday, and they didn't make me fill out new paperwork. Consequently, I am less rage-filled than I was earlier! Which makes me glad I left a phone message with the dealership service manager before I finally left work at 6:00.

Speaking of food, I think Haagen-Daaz is trying to kill me. New flavor: Carmelized Pear with Toasted Pecans. Holy jesus good.

Thumbs up!
That's just odd, ita.

I can't move without grimacing. From my neck to the tops of my thighs. Ridiculous. And I have cleaning to do. At least shredding is pretty sedentary.

Ugh, ita. I hope it eases up soon.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
I have never been one of those people who forgets to eat - but it happened today. I am out of my usual breakfast stuff, so I just grabbed some tea in the am.
My conference call ran late, into when I normally go to the cafeteria for lunch and I didn't think about it until about an hour before I left the office and it seemed silly to take a break at that point.
When I got home, I jumped into chores before heading to karate. Is it any wonder I got a headache partway through warm ups and was dizzy through the rest of class? Not fun.
