Female protesters getting maced by police at Occupy Wall Street protest: [link] It's hard with these little clips to get any context, but it's hard to see what could have legitimately provoked the use of mace in this instance.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My head feels like gimlet.
Sick. I'm sick. My asthma has flared. I can't breathe sitting up. I can't breathe horizontally. Ok, I can, kinda. But I have absolutely zero energy.

ouch.

Allyson, did you ever ask your doctor about getting actual IBS meds? I meant to ask you that a week ago, but apparently I only did so inside my head.

SNORT. I have been there, sister.
Water, ibu, food and a nap.
For Jilli - wish the teleporter worked: A local museum here has Bram Stoker's original research notes and outlines for Dracula and has a heap of events each October for Dracfest [link]
Ooooooh.

How I feel after eating all the wrong food and drinking alcohol? I wish I had emailed him last week.
The first gimlet was delicious, though. The second was vodka with a piece of lime. When I bitched, the waitress just brought me a glass of lime syrup to add to it. Which makes me wonder, if I bitched about my prime rib being too rare, would she have just brought me a hibachi?
Invoking the FPC - my benefit year for unemployment ended this week. Today I get to jump through all the hoops online again to see if I am eligible for a new claim. I'm pretty sure I am, because I was working for seven months of the year, but still. Extra stress I didn't need.
Hope it all works out to your benefit, Jilli. And that it doesn't take too much time and effort to figure out. I hate that kind of thing.
Making coffee and sprinkled some cinnamon in with the grounds. Yum.
I am going to do laundry and hang up or put in drawers All The Clothes today. Bonus would be tidying office.
First, I'm going to go have more coffee, though.
