In this case, being ticked off would be a good thing.
I was under the impression that I was your big comfy blanky.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Well, now I can never say that phrase again without thinking about the big tick on the cat's butt!

My body hates me. It's my day off I have the plague and the curse. I was going to garden this afternoon, but I am going to concede to illness and flop on the couch & watch TV.

Dead ticks usually drop off, zenkitty. I'd think the most scrupulous cat might miss a tick on his butt.
High on my list of good things about having a significant other is having someone to do a tick check.

My freaking cold, which I thought was on the way out, has settled in my chest. I feel like I'm hacking up a lung whenever I cough. Doesn't help that the weather just flipped from the high 70's into a rain/snow forecast for today/tomorrow.
Sigh. Last night I had a parental melt down (posted it on lj) and today I have a post-parental melt down hangover. Which means I'm in the land of not dealing.

Uggh. And ouch. And eesh. This is how online retailers get stuff shipped so quickly. [link]
I feel genuinely sorry for any child I might have who ever asks me for anything for Christmas, only to be informed that every time a "Place Order" button rings, a poor person takes four Advil and gets told they suck at their job.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ugh Suzi, I have been battling the epic chest cold. My doctor's OTC advice ended up being good. He suggested Zyrtec D (meaning it has the need-to-sign-for-it-because-it-actually-works decongestant) with a Mucinex kicker. Dries things up without drying you out and cuts down the nasty hacking cough by about half.

Holy mother of god, figuring out how to insert a text box into an excel 2011 chart should not be have been that painful. I know part of it is my logic is not MS logic BUT JEEZUSFRICKIN'CHRIST WHO EQUATES INSERTING A FUCKING SHAPE WITH INSERTING TEXT?!!!
I'd go back to my 2004 excel except they took it away from me.
I seriously spent the better part of 45 minutes trying to figure that out. Google just made me madder, because the results bore no resemblance to reality.
What's sad is I'll probably forget how to do this and go through the whole cycle again in 6 months.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Goofy practical jokes are OK by me, but the cruel ones are not. A former roommate of mine cooked up one of pretending he and the friend he was driving cross-state with had gone missing, and having the person they were visiting call me and our other roomie to ask why they hadn't arrived when expected. We called his family and friends to see if they'd taken a detour, and were considering notifying the highway patrol when he called all bent out of shape that we'd upset his mom. No, YOU upset her, thoughtless twit.
Did I mention this all went down while the series finale of Star Trek: The Next Generation was having its first-run broadcast?

Yikes, Matt.
Ugh, I haven't slept well in days and I feel totally gross and super achy and uncomfortable. I really wish we could afford for me to take these last few pre-baby weeks off work. All I want to do today is lie on the couch and nap and eat the occasional snack, in between bouts of nausea. (Did you know that nausea can return in the third trimester? I didn't! So exciting!)
