I did that too, except I wasn't asleep, I was lying in bed feeling like I was going to barf. Happily mr. flea managed the children AND did the taxes while I was down, and while I'm still kinda wobbly I think vomit is not longer on the agenda. Also, as usual, we get a nice fat refund, thanks to our little deductions.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
sumi, me too, and it was sleep. Which is kind of nuts because I slept 13 hours last night. Now I'm foggy and a bit cranky and trying to get motivated. So I'm listening to Violent Femmes.

Yeah, I feel like I lost a good part of the day. I'm not even sure how long I was asleep.
At least the crick in my neck seems to have gone.

That sucks, flea! Anti-nausea to you. Hate that feeling.
I am trying to decide what to do this evening--I have an appointment south of town, and texted a friend down there, but he is out of town. I could go to contradancing. And may--I'm annoyed at my body for not only feeling creaky and achey, but for only losing half a pound this week. I mean, really. What's the point in all the dieting and feeling constrained on food, if I'm not losing any weight?!?
And screw Valentine's Day. And all the couple-ness. And people who are having sex. ...OK now I'm just getting grumpy and unreasonable.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I just went and had my acrylic nails soaked off because my own bitten-off nails finally grew out underneath them. Then I got a gel manicure. I don't know what it is, but it is a super-modern nail polish which is supposed to last 2-3 weeks and it's shiny. Gel FTW.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I went grocery shopping. Why does a bag of baby spinach with bacon bits and croutons cost less per pound than a bag of plain baby spinach? It was a pretty significant difference, too.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
And screw Valentine's Day. And all the couple-ness. And people who are having sex. ...OK now I'm just getting grumpy and unreasonable.
I understand this. A friend and I are going out to eat tonight as each other's V'day dates. I am very much looking forward to it.
flea, feel better! No puking.

I don't feel barfy anymore but I have a fever and I'm all achey, and tylenol is not helping either. I am so rarely sick it is strange. I've been watching old Antiques Roadshow clips with the guy I co-edited my high school literary magazine with as appraiser of 19th century books and manuscripts, which is also strange. He looks and sounds pretty much exactly the same.
