I am also going to be in the not at work today group, because I had to take the anti-nausea with bonus sedative drug this morning, which means I feel fine, but can't drive.
River: I didn't think you'd come for me. Simon: Well, you're a dummy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The ER visit broke the really bad migraine that was Saturday, as well as the comically intense nausea. As in, head still hurts and I'm not eating (Sunday was a bowl of cereal, whoot whoot), but it's a lot better than before.
Man, I feel so foggy I'm regretting having called in working from home when there's an 8am con call. Having a hard time resolving double vision. Doctor better not be pissy about this.

Now tagless for your comfort.
ita, I hope the doc isn't a jerk and can help.
These are some serious pancakes.
Perkins, I'm glad you're feeling fine. Ride the sedative wave and take a nap.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, if pay increases when you finish probation are normal operating procedure, I might not consider it inappropriate as long as actual amounts are not being spoken aloud.
I don't believe it is SOP, but could be wrong. Anyway.

Art Crawl!!!
OMG, my doctor's office just called me. I had an appt at 9 am and I COMPLETELY forgot.
Admittedly, I made the appointment about 4 months ago.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
How awesome does a cake have to be in order to get banned from a cake show?
Verminous Dickens cake banned from Melbourne cake show
"Great Expectations, the Miss Havisham Cake," a remarkable, vermin-infested entry from the Hotham Street Ladies art collective was excluded from the Melbourne Cake Show on grounds of "bad taste." Boo!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Damn. I do not have ita- levels of headache, but I feel like someone has bopped me over the face with a broomstick, and I am nauseated. I think it is because I forgot to take my celexa this weekend, and have just now taken it, but man I feel vile.

Yes, Perkins, be less stupid than me and don't dial in to work. Dammit. But I have a theoretical go live today that I must be braced for.
And checking my emails means my boss doesn't know I'm not at the office today, being that he's not going to be in, and I called in sick to his phone

Should we not be subtle about this kind of thing?
Yes. Just be thankful you don't have my boss, who told more than one colleague that I threatened to leave if I didn't get promoted or a raise (not exactly what I said) and then told me that I wasn't being professionally savvy.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
