You deserve some good old fashioned Orange American Non-Aerosol Cheezfood.

You are so sweet! Thank you thank you thank you! The Girl will be very amused that people other than her are acting as my international mac and cheese dealers.

BTW, would be interested in reading your paper. With tea to hand, of course.

You're welcome to read whatever I produce, although that will mainly be in (possibly illegible) note form, as it's a verbal presentation and group discussion. I will put 'email notes to smonster' on my to-do list for after the weekend.

We can add me back to the injuries list - vertigo is back with a vengeance.

Not good. I hope your DH can help, and that you get home safely. Are you leaving work early? Get rest!

Seska, I think it's more or less always been okay to end sentences on prepositions, in which case it's grammatically correct in any case! I think. Maybe I made that up to make myself feel better. Hmm.

Heh. I think it's technically incorrect but often done in informal usage. I have my 'former English teacher' pride, though!

Teppy, if you DO decide you'd rather go with George Clooney, give my grandmother a call. She knows some of his Cincy relatives.

OH HAI THIS IS RELEVANT TO MAH INTERESTS.

Tell your grandmother I'd share. Grandmothers like that.

Groovy Barb. And no nervous breakdowns please.

Oy. I love my boy, but when I woke up with him next to me in the middle of the night, I abandoned my bed for his so he wouldn't wake me at early o'clock in the morning. So what does he do when he wakes up? Comes down the hall to find me and crawls back into his own bed. And proceeds to wake me up. It's like I gave birth to a puppy.

{{{Bitches}}} Health~ma all around.

Zen, those numbers are really looking good. Go you!

I'm feeling like Typhoid Mary-- I roll into town and Sean feels pukey and ND has to head to the ER.

Glad it's nothing major, Pix-- many gentle hugs headed across town to you guys.

I hope ND's pain is better today.

What are people up to this weekend?

We're babysitting for G tonight, which if things go as planned should be very easy. Show up, order pizza, put him to bed, and watch TV. Of course, when does everything go as planned with a toddler? Other than that, we don't have plans.

I'm house/pet sitting for friends who also have a washer and dryer, so I will be laundering every piece of clothing I have ever owned.

I'm glad ND's doing better.

Everyone else, I hope you start doing better soon.

I seem to be allergic to something at work. (Possibly work.) Yesterday afternoon I started sneezing and itching, and a few welts appeared on my arms. I ended up going home, instead of to the gym, and dosing myself with benedryl. (On the upside, I got 10 hours of sleep last night.) Today I'm slightly itchy, but not nearly to the extent of yesterday. I wonder what it is.
