So I'm either swinging into hypomania or just having an anxiety attack. I don't know. I feel like crap which sucks because today was a pretty good day over all. Until I started picking at things I know are trigger-ish/sore subjects. Plus I should have taken my medicine at 8:30 pm and I didn't until about half an hour ago so I'm waiting for it go into effect (affect? I can never remember).

I hate the way my brain works.

I think the only thin you can do is provide a different air freshener, Erin. Something you can tolerate, and maybe they'll use it instead of lysol?

erin,

that would get me absolutely irritated. any chance you can use another facility where people aren't so liberal in their use of lysol?

I would have hives after day 2.

Ooh, or other thought--steal the Lysol and put out some Clorox wipes instead. Then they can use those for cleaning, but can't for "air freshening"

Ugh erin, how aggravating, especially the tearing off the message.

That house is way too awesome, I would so want to live there!

Oh, which reminds me, Jilli if you are in the LA area this Halloween, there's a house in a nearby neighborhood that does the most amazing decorations, inside and out. The front of the house is done as an homage to the classic Hollywood horror films, the inside is an homage to the Haunted Mansion and the backyard is decorated to look like the bayou setting at the start of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. Seriously awesome!

I think Meara wins it with the Clorox wipes.

Clorox wipes absolutely wins! I'll suggest that to the H&S committee, my supervisor, and admin/HR if they refuse to take any action. I know other air fresheners were denied before because of our "fragrance free" policy. I'm astonished that a substance so stinky you can TASTE it is somehow exempt. I don't really have another option for bathroom use, we're only allowed off the floor twice a day max and I pee more often than that.

if you have fragrance free, how can lysol be used at all?

askye, I'm so sorry. The brain is a tricksy beast indeed.

erin, Clorox wipes sound like a winner.

sj, that is one cute bebbeh. I want to kiss her little nose.

Have been sleeping on and off. Didn't have dinner. Should probably eat something, unfortunately am out of yogurt.

Argh! We're not going to make it to LA for Halloween this year. Which makes me VERY SAD, as I miss Pix & ND (and everyone else!), and I won't get the chance to visit the Haunted Mansion while it's in the Nightmare Before Christmas makeover.

But between the looming work deadline (Nov. 16th) and Steamcon the weekend before Halloween, there was just no way we could do it. On the other hand, I have a new work environment to introduce to my blood-spattered vampire costume ...
