IT guy is switching my laptop. This better be over soon. And they're taking my 22" monitor away. Apparently the cool kids like flatscreen LCDs. Whatever.
Bored now.
Or maybe you could just be Buffy, he'll see your amazing heart, and he'll fall in love with you.

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

I love my flatscreens.

They're not giving me 1800 x1440, so I don't wanna play. Most people here don't even dual monitor with their laptop"s screen. Real estate means nothing to them. Heathens.

This morning, my yogurt exploded all over me and my chair, and then had the audacity to have a spot of mold. Everything went downhill from there.
Or I should say it's still going, because I haven't left work yet.

Such a large temptation to link to the Misha kefir picture for what would be the second time today.
I need to mix up my game.

hip deep in pie
DaisyJane, your pain sounds similar to my back pain, which is caused by compressed disk. The swelling and compression causes the pain to radiate out into my hip and butt, sometimes into my thigh. For me, it's standing, carrying things and walking that aggravate it.
I went for physio for a while which helped, and she gave me some exercises which work...but I tend to slack when it's not hurting and things get ouchy again.
For immediate relief, ice on the back where compression swelling is help to take the swelling downa dn relieve pressure on the nerves. But I also use heat on the muscles that get tensed up if there's a day of walking around where I don't get a chence to get much relief.

1800x1440. My bad. Apparently the monitor is eight years old. No one else can possibly want it, can they?

David, I hope you guys get it, regardless of the PITA paperwork hoops.
Anyone have (seriously) 5 mins to looksee at a cover letter I wrote for a job I would really, really like? The Exec Director of a PT position I didn't get said she was forwarding my resume to this position opening up; it posted today, and OMG, perfect.
I don't need a finetooth comb, just a glance. (Profile addy good, FYI)
I made an apricot curry chicken, and it was really good! Today has been pretty productive (sorry, peeps whose days sucked.)

Lordy, it would be like a trifecta of good news.
It would be sort of like when I got hired at my last law firm job which pulled me out of dire financial straits, got my shit back in order and allowed me to move forward with my commitment to JZ (getting married, having kids).

brown rice and black-eyed peas for dinner. Goya recaito really is just the easiest way to make beans taste yum. I decided that trying to cook right now was really just too much on my plate, so I am eating the few things I have already made (rice & beans) and then am buying whatever frozen things are on sale at the Super Target each week, plus some samplings from their frozen ethnic food selections.
