I could squeeze you until you popped like warm champagne, and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more.

Yikes, Jessica! I'm glad it wasn't worse, but I'd never have expected to end up in the ER from trying to open nail polish.

Jess, I hope you tell people you got your injury in a bar fight. Or wrasslin' a gator. (Also, glad to hear it was easy to take care of!)

It's a very Buffista injury, that.

Other Buffista injuries:

*Stabbed with wayward corset stay
*Multiple paper cuts from speed-reading the latest Harry Potter
*My Chemical Ennui

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Eww. I suppose they didn't clean them with acetone, right?

No, they did not. They'd just grip it with clamps and twist and yank.

Vortex: got a cut on her hand from my corset lacing while trying to lace me into my corset at the F2F in Seattle!

Okay, listing REAL ones takes away from the side-splitting HI-larity of my fake ones. t pout

(New Buffista injury: sprained lip while pouting.)

Oh come on, we're an accident prone people. And we can laugh about it now.

My most recent stupid injury: paper cut on my finger. Except it wasn't paper, it was the lid of a tub of yogurt. Who'd think that had cutting power?

OK, all the clothing is upstairs, except the drag stuff, which is still hanging on a thingie in the garage. Need to do like, one or two more trips so there's nothing in the car when I drive to the airport tomorrow.

Bad forgotten thing: I didn't go to the old place and call the power company and read the meter (and I need someone to pretend to be the landlord to read the meter. Um.)

Other bad thing: Can't find like, four shoes (the matches to pairs). Where the hell are they?? I'm hoping they did not mysteriously fall out while dragging them to my car or some shit. Cause at least two are favorites (one is my most comfy summer sandals!). Grr. Also...I have too many shoes.

Have not put any clothes AWAY, they are all spread across the bedroom and on my bed. Contemplating cool drink. Want beer, but suspect it would make me lazy(ier)

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I'm sorry, you guys -- I can recommend taking Monday off work, but I can't take another day between now and Wednesday!

Wait, are we taking Tuesday off? Why? I'm WFH Tuesday - does that count?


Jesse - May 02, 2010 4:19:05 pm PDT #26893 of 30001
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just need Wednesday to get here -- it's when I have the last interview for what I hope will be my new job.

“Not dead yet!”

Me: Mild sprain of ankle, caught between seat and legs of desk chair.
