So it turns out that I'm staying at the Omni only Sunday and Monday nights. Tuesday and Wednesday nights, I'll be at the Westin South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa. I have no idea what this means, geographically, but I thought I should let you all know!
Ooooh, fancy schmanzy, i'm very very familiar with that Westin. They have a lovely rooftop pool and a fantastic bar. A little on the spendy side, but the food and drink are both very very good. It means you'll have a pretty long drive to get anywhere...except the theatre where O_A and i used to work - which is right next door. Also the Performing Arts Center and new Opera House. Nice if you wanna catch a show!
eta: there's also a pedestrian bridge across the big street to one of the poshest shopping malls anywhere: South Coast Plaza. On the plus side, there is a Sees shop on the lower level. Also, pants for over $1k.
That's a hard thing not to dwell on, Kate. All kinds of nothing~ma to you.
Thanks, Amy. Gotta say, looking at photos of gorgeous Aeryn Sylvia on FB is helping!
I know! I'm all TINY. NEW. BABY!
Kate, wishing you all the best. I'll be thinking about you, and sending good vibes.
I miss you!
Thanks, erin, for the info! That sounds kind of cool, actually. If I'm going to be hanging out at a hotel, that sounds like a not-bad hotel to be slounging at.
Eek, Kate, much -ma both of the "it's nothing" and the "chill, cool, calm, collected"
I felt very peculiar when I was the only one among my sister's friends who'd seen Kanye's dick.
...for a minute I thought you meant you'd seen it in person. And I was like "When? You've been holding out on stories!" Was there something remarkable about it, or just that it's Kanye's?
I'm used to it being very quiet around my house, but the neighbors have started work on their renovations, and I keep hearing construction noise--nothing too bad, so far, but people moving around and things clanking, and I keep being startled and thinking it's someone around MY house, or coming to the front door.
My Dec. monthly report is
ridiculous. Turns out I only worked seven days the whole month:
Dec. 1-2: worked. (Had two-hour staff holiday lunch on the 1st.)
Dec. 3: had knee surgery
Dec. 6-10, 13: laid up
Dec. 14: checked email from home for three hours or so
Dec. 15: went into office for two hours to see capstone students give final presentation
Dec. 16: slept all day
Dec. 17: spent two hours writing up feedback for capstone students' final grade
Dec. 20-22: worked. Mostly answered phones, since I was the only one in the office. Phone didn't ring all that much.
Dec. 23: Tried to work, but threw up at my desk about ten minutes after I got to work. Went home.
Dec. 24, 27: holidays
Dec. 28-29: worked, answered phones.
Dec. 30-31: holidays.
I know! I'm all TINY. NEW. BABY!
Baaaaaaaby!
Kate, wishing you all the best. I'll be thinking about you, and sending good vibes.
And the same to you! I was glad to read your update, just to know what's going on with you. I've been thinking about you, and both M and I are sending love and good wishes to you and your family.
Thanks for the ~ma, y'all. I will gladly take it!
Welcome to the world, baby Aeryn!!
Finally caught up after being away for days.
ION - I'm waiting for them to go ahead and rename Dinosaur Comics "All Things Batman": [link]
Kate, much "it's nothing"~ma for you.
