Oh good. And I know you have plenty of candles.
I am totally prepared for the apocalypse!
(I am actually down to my last 300 candles. I could barely hold off a Persian army. I need an IKEA trip.)
And I shut the water off in there. Someone will come out tomorrow.
They made me a pear ginger cocktail that's 99% booze. So good. Now I'm so tipsy. Mmmmm, Ginger and pear.
::whimpers:: That sounds so good - I wonder if pear would activate my alcohol/fruit juice issues. What's the liquor?
Man, I am wrecked from that flu shot. And I think I set a new personal best (worst?) for stupid mistakes today. Like putting the saw blade in backwards, nailing a board in the wrong place, building a header 1 1/8 " short, getting boards of two different widths to build a new header, etc. Not to mention that barely being able to lift my left arm made the day interesting. But ANYWAY. Made it through the day. Luckily, we had indoor work, because it was rainy and barely above freezing.
So the guy I had to fire the other day apparently called my counterpart at the city (we're grant partners) and left a profanity-laced message about the unfairness of his termination. Dude, I could not have been more clear about it being your last chance if I'd hired a sky writer. And even if you WERE telling the truth, I could have already fired you twice over for other stuff. Also, even given that I screwed up about the way you found out, that is SO not the way to handle the situation.

Mine (back in September) destroyed me for several days. But it was so worth it.
I'm sorry about the flu shot after effects, smonster. The booze is a combo of pear vodka and Domaine de Canton Ginger liquor.
Wow, good thing you just have to toddle downstairs.
Yeah, and it took about an hour of lying on the sofa, watching
The Middlemen
to even manage that.

Mmmm. I had a pear mojito last night that was too sweet but still way tasty. A shot of ginger would have put it right over the edge. I need more pear liquor in my life.
I've never gotten a flu shot. Also never gotten the flu. Every year I wonder if I'm pushing my luck.
Considering I have had the flu a couple of times when I haven't had the shot, I do think it does what it advertises. When I was younger and more hale, a bout of flu didn't really bug me that much, but the older I get the harder it is to shake it off, so I've gotten resigned to getting one every year no matter what kind of side effects I have from the actual shot.
The pharmacist who gave it to me said that following an informal poll, no one she's dispensed flu meds to had gotten the vaccine. So yeah, I'll put up with the weak and the owies and the stupid brain.
