Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I tried that with Na Na Na.

I got a speeding ticket.

My concert wife S (whom Kate P knows in meat space), whom I have NEVER seen speed (on many a road trip) put on that album and floored it a few weeks ago.

I almost didn't want to tell her how fast she was going because it was hysterical (and the highway was empty) but we were approaching the turnpike gates and, well, you just never know...

So apparently they're lining up an RFP for contracting firms to fill my slot, and there will be some jujitsu with my resume being sent along in close proximity. "Nudge nudge, know what I mean?" and so forth.

No word yet on start date. My coworker is trying to convince me to try to get a raise out of it, just to cover the pain & suffering of all this. Which is tempting except for the fear that I'll price myself out of the work.

Next Thursday is my last day in this position: at least I can kind of sort of tell people something now...

But I still want my bottle of Oban. And a pony.

Yay, for last chemo!

I'm sorry for all the sickos out there. Jesse, when I had The Real Influenza last winter it just absolutely kicked my ass for two weeks. Flat on my back, achey, feverish, horrible. It was my worst sickness in about ten years and a painful reminder that the real flu is not to be trifled with.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I found it! It was in my briefcase. Along with two pencils and a silver sharpie, so it's a win all around.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I had what may or may not have been Real Flu a few years ago, and same thing with the two weeks. Yikes! I'm pretty sure this is just a bad cold, but bleh.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Yay Perkins!

Ugh. My arms hurt from snow removal.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Yay done! It gets better from here.

FCM: Benadryl, Sudafed, Ibuprofen

I don't know what to do with this one, since I have a polygamous marriage with Benadryl and Ibuprofen. I can chuck Sudafed.
