Best of luck, Shir! I know you'll kick ass.
Got a response from B. He is understanding and respectful of my needs, and will be there whenever I'm ready. ::sigh:: One of the people I'm talking to on OKC seems to have some potential, if we can ever find time to actually meet. Since I'm unlikely to get lucky like Rose and get an AU B who actually wants to date me.
Dover has some of the coolest books out there in art and history etc. I did not need to know they were having a sale.
edit: Ooo, Erte! And translucent-page Frank Lloyd Wright!
Ugh, smonster. I hope someone who really can meet your needs shows up sharpish and blots this discomfort from your mind.
sumi, the Prismacolor markers are fabulous...and fabulously priced. Thankfully, my obsession is not obliterating my knowledge of budget.
At this point, I'm questioning getting markers after all. I've got 64 crayons and 36+ colored pencils. Maybe I should just enjoy them for a while. I also like the fact that I can conceivably erase small mistakes with the pencils.
The Dover sale features Australian Wildlife and Charles Darwin books. Hmm.
Oooh! And Erte fashion. Now you can reimagine all those college dorm posters. Heh.
eta: Erte xpost for the win!
PS: Bartleby has a bad belly AGAIN. I'm pretty sure he snorfled two cupcakes this weekend, including the paper.
As much as I love my neighborhood like pancakes, I wish people would be a bit more judicious about throwing food on the ground. There are bins on nearly every corner, people! Plus, thousands of wheelie bins, if you are in a pinch.
But no...they seem to think they are feeding our ever so cute squirrels, when in fact they are feeding another animal with a long, bald tail. Sigh.
etaa: two too many letters.
You guys. Oh my god. I woke up with migraine pain (thank you, rapidly changing weather [grumble]). Took migraine meds. Slept another 2 hours. Woke up. NO PAIN. At this point, I am ready to worship the ground my acupuncturist walks on.
(Well, there's actually a little pain in my ear, but everything and its mother is blooming outside, so my sinuses are also going haywire. I took a sudafed a little bit ago, and I *think* that should get rid of the ear pain. I don't think the ear pain has anything to do with migraine-y-ness.)
I could cry, I'm so relieved.

I would prefer for them to not even start, but just being able to stop them within hours is light years beyond what they had been (normally 2-4 DAYS, and not a great response to medication).
Oh, Teppy, that is good news, that you could escape your migraine!
AWESOME, Steph. Toss some marigolds at your acupuncturist's feet for me.
That's amazing.
I had an alternative treatment a week ago and every night since then, I have slept straight through. No trips to the bathroom. It's MAGIC. No lie. I can't even remember how long it has been since I have been able to do that. Plus, no matter how many hours I actually sleep (I've been pounding the caffeine too much), I wake up feeling great.
A minister I know says that miracles are only surprising to non-believers. I believe, and still I'm gobsmacked.
Yay for treatments that work!
So glad you are getting some relief, bonny and Steph.
it took me half an hour to eat my oatmeal this morning
Oh, {{{{beth}}}} I'm sorry your throat hurts so much.
