WS, good luck with the meeting. I hope the dietician backs you up.
Teppy, that sounds awful. Feel better!
Simon: The decision saved your life. Zoe: Won't happen again, sir. Mal: Good. And thanks. I'm grateful. Zoe: It was my pleasure, sir.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Tea: Where the heck did this week go? I'm completely not prepared for vacation. I need to start making lists.

WooHoo. Jury Duty. Hey, it's a new courthouse. Shiny new Jury Room. Clean tables. Chairs that don't wobble. It's not bad at all. But, I've been here 5 minutes. Let's see how I hold up when boardom kicks in.

Thank you for doing your civic duty, omnis.
Good luck at urgent care, Teppy.
Hope you can hone your lists so they work for you, sj.

We have free wi-fi. Which is great. Seems they block a lot of sights. Facebook being one of them. "No social media in the courthouse" or some such banner. Kinda funny. But hey, Buffistas isn't blocked! Woot. Livestream updates from the court house.
UDPATE: We just lined up for parking validation.
That's all for now from the court house. Stay tuned for more breaking news.
(I did look around as I approached this morning. Very happy to NOT see any news trucks. That means no big, high profile case that will last forever).

My mom served on a jury for a theft case where the prosecutor was just phoning it in. They found the defendant not guilty. The judge told them when it was over that they had done the right thing even though the guy probably had stolen, because the prosecutor just had not done his homework. May you get assigned to a fairly easy case like that.

Omnis, best of luck with jury duty.
Honestly, I'm not even sure what needs to be on these to do lists. I'm headed out with Thessaly and maybe that will help me focus.

In court room. Not on jury yet.
They play white noise when lawyers approach bench so we can't hear them. Do not like. Reminds me of work. Only we use pink noise.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Glad I went to Urgent Care -- apparently I have an ear infection in just the right ear. That's weird. The doctor said the pain from the ear could have triggered the migraine, which I suppose is possible, except I don't remember the pain from the ear preceding the migraine. (And I normally have ear pain with migraines, on the same side as the elephant-kicking-my-face pain.) Anyway, I got a shot of Toradol in my bottom for the migraine and antibiotic/steroid ear drops for the ear. Woo.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Teppy, I have a drug question for you: is it possible that Cipro side effects (dizziness, headache) might first show up when I'm four days into the meds? Or is this likely a new problem that I'm dealing with?
