Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Work is making me want to cry. Come back New G...okay it's not that bad, but still. I have eaten half a sandwich and two pieces of candy since Tuesday. And I'm scared to leave my desk.

Yes, I love me a Toronto Cocktail, one of my favorite Fernet cocktails. Also, the Hanky Panky, a gin based Fernet drink:

  • 1 ½ oz. gin
  • 1 ½ oz. sweet vermouth
  • 2 dashes Fernet Branca

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I guessed that Nora knew that cocktail before I scrolled down!!

Ugh, that sounds terrible.

Even if you can't leave your desk you should be able to order food and have it sent there, right?!

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 want to try a Toronto, that sounds up my alley. Guessing it would be not dissimilar to a Manhattan.

WRT the suicide while sleepwalking article: a few years ago I saw a documentary on people who've killed or tried to kill someone in their sleep. Freaky.

Ooh, I saw that. No wait, that was L&O.

If I had known, ita, I would have brought you food because I was at LAX today and could have fed you too.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I went into the office for 2 hours today. Did not really chat with anyone, just went through papers on my desk and dealt with a few things. Found out that I really need to go in tomorrow also. Feh. 2 more hours should do it with the actual paper stuff, everything else can be done remotely.

I posted some stuff as available on my neighborhood listserve and 1 bag has already been claimed: 3 pieces of clothing and 2 games. Rawk!

10 of the 26 ebay things are now selling and there is less than a day left on the auctions.

Just called the movers to see if I could get times for the packing on Monday and load on Tuesday, turns out I am not in the computer for Monday. My exact words to them, " Well Crap!". Apparently someone else is going to call me back momentarily and get it all sorted. Now I am feeling better about doing so much of the packing myself.
