[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.
WindSparrow, I hope the hangover ends soon and you feel better.
I went to bed five hours ago. I have not been able to sleep. I got up twice to spend quality time with the foam roller. I'm already leaving work early tomorrow for a doc's appt, so o really don't want to go in late or take the whole day, especially because we are behind where we want to be.
This sucks.
I really need to get back to yoga.
I stayed home today to get a sofa delivered and the fucking thing was 2" too tall to fit through the hallway to the family room where it was supposed to be set up.
I've been waiting for this sofa since AUGUST (it's a Joybird, custom made) and now I'm sitting on it in the living room and I just want to cry. Compared to what other people are going through, this is nothing, but we haven't been able to use the family room since we moved, and it was supposed to be over today.
This sofa is really comfortable. Fuck it.
I guess I need to find a "we move furniture into your tiny East Village studio apartment" guy who's willing to come up to Westchester who can take the base off and shove it past the narrow turn.
Ugh that's super frustrating, Jessica. Really hope you can figure out a way to make it work. We've been looking at Joybird for a new couch so I'll be interested to hear how you guys like it once you get it where it needs to be (optimist!).
Doesn't matter if it isn't serious as a heart attack, it still sucks, Jessica.
Thanks, smonster. I feel better. Here's hoping Jilli feels better too.
Is it really only Wednesday morning? I already have 30 hours on my timesheet. And I'm ready for a nap before 9am.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE let my flight home be on time (12 hours from now).
Ok, I called a guy and he said it's possible, if he takes the sofa apart and takes the light fixture out in that hallway (and then puts it back in the other room). He's going to get another guy and see when they can come back and do it. THIS IS GOING TO BE OKAY.
My brother has been periodically texting me pictures of dogs over the past couple of days because he knows I'm stressed. BEST BROTHER.
The weather changed, so my migraine has pretty much gone.
I'm glad you feel better, WS.
EVERYONE GETS A GOOD DAY TODAY. Do you hear me, Universe? Make it happen.

I just got my contract for 2017, and they agreed to my rate increase! I was pretty much set for them to say no, because they are apparently known for being cheap as hell with their freelancers, but damn if they didn't cough it up.
ABOUT TIME, 2016. (Though it doesn't take effect until 2017. Still. I gotta put stuff in the Win column whenever I can for this ridonkulous year.)

I am pro this.

Awesome.
I went for a walk along the waterfront at lunch and there was a guy with a hawk. I mentioned it to a friend and she said he's there on weekdays to scare the seagulls. I think Oz could do a job like that. He needs a job.
