aurelia - here's what I would do: [link]

but knowing that the process is that involved has kept me putting off cleaning my pillow.

Was at work until 6:50. That never happens, but hey, overtime. I had 5 hours of overtime from the weekend and 2.5 already for this week. woohoo!

I'm in progress with this: [link] Filling the tub for the 3rd time. I suspect it'll take days to dry. I may try leaning it against a radiator (with a towel between) once it's dry enough to take out of the tub. Wet cushions are heavy.

I'm a huge dorky catowner: I just send vid of Devi's current snorkiness to the vet. Thing is, she is breathing EASIER. The congestion is fluid now, but she's still full of snot. And I've been wearing some of it. She's still got a week of antibiotics left.

BLOW YOUR NOSE, DEVI, DAMNIT.

I suspect those snot-suckers used for Noah and Grace would end up with a bloodbath if I tried them on her...

The fairy tale baby pictures are ADORBS.

Tomorrow I have to videotape my class for my first period and then I have to be observed period 3. Sigh.

Also, I have an amazingly painful like razors in the skin rash in the shape of a weird crescent that broke out while I was fully dressed at work at 3:00 PM on the top of my leg. Please do not let the rash persist while I'm in DC.

Um, not a bullseye?

My Taylor is going with LeadAmerica, leaving this Friday. She called me tonight to tell me all about her shopping for "super professional clothes" for it "but I already had a lot of stuff for my jobs that works." She's excited for all the workshops but when it comes to the Inauguration itself 'Seats prbly better, but not as cool as the first one wit u&crazyppls' and then in the phone call, all what she remembered of our adventures.

Nope. The crescent funs from my butt all the way down to my knee, in a slight bend. I cannot explain how awful the shower felt. Grace asked me if it hurt. Right after she laughed at my belly button. Actually she pointed out that she had a belly button too and an extra button for eating. That girl kills me.

Sara, are you coming to the inauguration?

Nah. My vacation time is fucked, and my one good excuse (Taylor) already has a ride, so to speak.

(Also, Grace FTW extra button!)

Aww! Silly Gracie. :)

The baby pictures are definitely adorable.

I am feeling better because: I am off for the next two days for surgery, I finished the one super important thing I had to do and then put on my out of office for other people to deal with some ridiculous fires that shouldn't have started in the first place, and I found my ipad charger (which I'd lost) and got a Zappos order (that fit!) and had dinner with a friend and got half-price cupcakes (nom). So, yay. Now if my surgery just goes well tomorrow...

Drat.

Work is not sending me to Miami FL for three weeks this winter.

Nor are they sending me to Greensboro NC instead, where at least there was the prospect of possibly meeting up with some NC-istas.

I'm headed for Brownsville TX at the end of the month. The only positive spin I can put on that is, it should be warm.

eta: Ooooh, sevens!
