It is so hot, that someone's iphone refused to work

Oh, hey, I've seen that message.

Ugh, msbelle.

I have managed to misplace one of the parts I ordered to fix my swamp cooler's water connection. I had it in my hand and thought to myself "I don't need to bring this to the hardware store [to get still more parts, natch]", but where did I put it then?

I suggest trolling a sibling in order to lift your spirits. It's doing wonders for me.

Timelies all!

Sorry you've had crappy days, Kat and msbelle.

I mentioned a while back that my lab was shutting down due to various factors. I updated my cv and sent it to the appropriate person in my division, who sent it out. I've had a few interviews since January, and the last one(beginning of June) worked out for me. Upshot is that as of the last week of July I have a new job.

Its going to be a challenge, as my new boss is starting up her first lab, so she'll be relying on me a lot for running things.(Not to mention being the voice of experience. Eep!)

Yay, Sheryl! I hope the challenge turns out to be the good kind.

Found the missing part in a stupid place. Have reassembled the waterline.

I don't want any of the food I have, and I don't want to go out.

I just went out. I don't recommend it.

Freaking dog. (And she's all jumping around in the 102 like "ooh! best idea ever!" And I'm all "you are a crazy person, we are going back inside.") Fortunately opposable thumbs win again.

::sigh::

"I don't think he's looking for the file we already have, since that value is not in it."
"Hey, can you give ita another copy of the file we already have?"

Fucking remarkable that we can't find that value in the file, isn't it? I could not have predicted that would happen...

Yeah, you'll follow up on Monday. I get it.

Could someone explain why I'm suddenly so light-headed? Like, nap in the car before driving home dizzy.

Woohoo, Sheryl! Yay new job.

Congrats, Sheryl!

So I'm not seeing Magic Mike right now. I was supposed to go with a whole group, and (ironic foreshadowing!) was saying at dinner how people in Boston don't buy the tickets ahead of time, blah blah blah. Needless to say, we got to the theater and it was sold out. So the other person with no ticket and I said we'd buy tickets to Brave and sneak into MM. She bought hers, but Brave was ALSO sold out by the time I got to the machine! So I bought an Avengers ticket... and learned it was playing in a downstairs theater and I couldn't even get to where MM was playing. So I got a refund and came home. Ah well.

So now I'm watching Say Yes To the Dress -- practically the same thing, right?
