Found it! It was sitting on the woodstove, to warm up. It's nice and warm now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If I ever see a block of free time coming up, I'm going to actually use our training centre. Our CIO is disappointed that we don't but does she really think I'm going to curl up and learn .NET (yeah, I want to have a better bullshit meter for some of the stuff the developers are telling me--I refuse to believe .NET is such a hamstrung development choice) on the weekend? I'm old now, plus there's fic.

I'm at work for the first time in almost two weeks! Now I have to figure out what it is I'm supposed to be working on!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I am Theo. I was a little bewildered when the alarm went off this morning.

I think I've done quite enough for the day, I'd like to take a break and get a manicure.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I am bummed about my nails. I did a cursory version of Ruby Pumps before we went out for NYE and I was going to clean it up and finish it. But yesterday morning I sliced a little bit of skin on my finger. It cut so cleanly that I didn't notice until later when I saw the blood. I couldn't figure it out for the longest time, and then I realized...I'd cut it on the ice in the birdbath! I'd melted it and pulled out the big slab of ice, which I then showed off to the SO sitting in the sunroom, and threw it like a frisbee. A giant, very heavy, apparently very sharp frisbee. Anyway, so now I can't redo my nails, which is sadmaking.

My alarm didn't go off this morning. I woke up wondering why it was so light outside, when my alarm was supposed to go off right around sunrise. Oops.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

It's nice and quiet work-wise today. I hope that trend continues through Friday.

Man, I need to pick a 2013 calendar. I was sure it would be SPN, but then Hobbit. Still--there is more confirmed hobbit than there is Show, so I should go SPN.

And I'm also sad I forgot to put together provocateuse calendars before the new year. I haven't done that for a long time.

That sucks, meara--did you miss stuff? I changed my alarm clock (for some reason) to announce the time before setting off the alarm, and it freaked me out this morning. My android devices talk to me way too much.

Apparently insurance has "approved" the neurostimulator trial. But I have no idea how much that means I have to spend--on the trial, and then on the final thing if the trial works out. I'm not entirely sure why this doesn't seem to be normal information to gather before the procedure. Need to get back on the horn to insurance.

And I do need to start getting my FSA refunds. All of that this month. It's a promise to myself.
