askye- I think you have made the right decision. Get Well!
Around Christmas, I thought I was craving lifetime movies (I have no cable) , but was unsatified. It turned out I was really craving Hallmark Hall of Fame Movies.
None of it means a damn thing.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Andi just went out to buy a can of baking powder so I can finish my scones.
I could have sworn the unopened can of Calumet baking powder I found on my shelf last week said DEC09. Upon closer examination today it said DEC00. Oops.
I would have gone with her, but if we go together, the time spent is quadruple that either one of us alone would spend.

Oh, we're totally the opposite. If I'm not along to herd The Boy along, then he spends HOURS in our teeny tiny grocery store. With me acting in my Iron Fist dictatorial capacity, armed with a list in order of the aisles, we get in and out in half an hour.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I'm back.

Daniel and I tend to multiply our meandering capability when together, whereas being alone and on a mission for him, I'm there and back like a rabbit.

Is this the one I saw the promo for? The "pregnancy pact"? I'll bet if so, they LT showed the pact as true, whereas in reality there was no pact.

The movie showed one girl getting pregnant and then convincing about three or four of her friends that they should get pregnant, too. In the movie story, the other 15 or so pregnancies at the school that year were not involved with the "pact," which the girls didn't think of as a pact, really, but more as a "let's all do this together, since we've done everything else together since kindergarten."

I have a lovely vino verde on hand that I'm happy to pour through the intrawebs. Well, some of it.

Thanks, Calli. I have settled for a Smirnoff Ice. I earned it, we had dinner with TCG's mom tonight.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Unfortunately, sj, I'm out of Scotch.
I watched a Lifetime movie once. There was a Conflict and a Quest, and they didn't show the resolution of either one. Instead the goddam movie ended with a monologue by the main character, spoken directly to the camera, about some morals or something we were supposed to have gained through the enlightening influence of this stupid movie. I mean, really. This whole, actually rather interesting, story, and we never know what happened?
Askye, you were totally right to stay home. Just because you could go to work, doesn't mean you should, and I think someone else already said that. You really are sick, for reals; it doesn't matter how many times you called out when you weren't. I hope this antibiotic regimen takes care of that infection and you get well, for reals, finally. I can't even express how brave I think you are; just the thought of doing what you're doing, by yourself, makes me feel faint.
