Oh! Those Victorian fonts are delish.

I spent my day mostly consumed with programming the project due Thursday, making very little progress until the evening, when the problem (getting a Google geolocation service that would derive a zipcode from a lat/long value to work) finally fell into place, both conceptually and actually.

Needless to say, much of the rest of my life (getting a job, etc.,) has fallen by the wayside.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You guys! I found the fleece-lined tights on sale at Target over the weekend, and they are so awesome! Cozy and warm.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Kat, no news on the job front. I need to get more resumes out and thank you email to the interview people (I forgot to get cards from them, so now I have to call to get their names, ugh).

Today though, I have a GI dr appt at 9. I am pretty sure he is gonna say I have to have a colonoscopy which I am not at all wanting.

Everyone says the prep for the colonoscopy is way way worse than the actual procedure, FWIW.

I've had my bladder scoped. I fear not the colonoscopy scope. There was, however, no laxative nonsense.

You are generally unconscious for the actual colonscopy so it's not a big deal. The prep is, however, Not Fun. But WORTH DOING IF THERE IS ANY REASON TO SUGGEST YOU NEED ONE!!!!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I skipped over 3000 posts. I'm sorry. I'm sure someone said something important/poignant/hysterically funny and I missed it, but there's no way I can catch up on 3000 posts.

I've seen those commercials with the volcano! Whatever they are.

Trudy, are you having the same foot surgery I had, i.e., bones broken and realigned to make the feet foot-shaped?

Speaking of two things discussed in the last couple days here -- Westminster and high school classmates -- one of my classmates is showing her great dane at Westminster today, evidently.

Man, it'll be nice to have our espresso machine fixed and back. Drip coffee's okay but I need the serious caffeine crack.
