The cupcakes sound yummy. I want to go to Grace and Noah's party!
Watching the Dubai World Cup races. Missed the first one due to sloth. Second one was a disaster (
horse fell and was destroyed - the race was called off because they couldn't move the fallen horse before the other races came round the track again. Poor thing. Lucky he was on the outside of the pack though.)
Aidan O'Brian's son is still race riding even though he's 5'11'. Tall and super skinny.
The horse that won the UAE Derby is completely American bloodlines though trained and raced in Ireland and the UK. The "American" entry was actually bred in Ireland. I think he got up for 4th - not sure.
dear autocorrect, do not capitalize for me, pls.
Yes, I had to add ita to my dictionaries. I don't mind the auto-correcting of my backwards ie and ei, but trust me to spell peoples names right!
That is sad, sumi. The tall jockey reminds me of one of our friends. He was asking DH how often gets asked if he plays basketball. DH asked friend if he often gets asked if he is a jockey. Ends up friend's twin brother was a jockey! Dude is about 5'4". We didn't know he had a brother. They joke about it often.
I would like to request credit for not making a dirty joke about the most recent Good Stuff post: [link]
I'm gonna be scared today until I hear back from the doctor. I don't know if I can explain how much a difficult ER visit takes out of me. I don't have that much to give anymore. And I don't know where to get extra.
Upton Tea sure ships fast! I figured if I'm going to keep up even remotely with the tea frenzy I've got going (it's now the simplest drink to make in the kitchen, pretty much), there's no way it can only be Teavana tea. That's just unsupportable. So I bought a couple flavours of Upton. Maybe I just haven't hit the sweet spot yet, but all three of my Teavana teas are way tastier than the stuff from Upton so far (and I know they don't do the jasmine green tea I prefer), but it is nicer than most tea bags, so I'm content. The Rooibos apple is an interesting balance of flavours.
They've decided to rerun the Dubai Gold Cup after the World Cup.
Understood. You are go to a place where they are supposed to help you, and the docs need to do their jobs. Them not doing their jobs and not reading your directive, AND making you feel worse is sheer stupidasswaddery and I am sending lots of ~ma that the good team is on the floor when you go in.
My comment about the pin was WRT you not wanting to lose your job. You are awesome at your job and they recognize this. If they only knew what you were going through in order to be able to do your job, my guess is some of them might also like to join in the ER smackfest. Not suggesting you tell them, btw. More underscoring the fact that you are awesome and hoping that the ER and your regular docs start being so as well.
They're awesome.
They put my name on all the tea. Weird me out, yo.
However, seriously, have you tried Teavana? They're ridiculously priced, but god-damn.

Thanks. I just feel like I'm taking advantage. Stuff is still getting done on time, but...I could do better.

I can't justify paying those prices, and I prefer unflavored, single region teas, so Upton is perfect for me. There are some teas on Teavana that I know are the exact same as on Upton for ½ to ⅓ the price.
