I am tipsy on prosecco!
I am tipsy from one dang pint of cider. I don't drink a lot anymore, but usually 1 pint doesn't make me tipsy, just kind of...slightly fuzzy edges. But then I remembered (after I finished the pint, of course), that I'm on antibiotics, so that's probably a factor. Oooops.
Two people in my improv class handed out Valentines -- one woman MADE sushi Valentines (out of craft paper, to be clear; they weren't actual edible sushi, which is a damn shame) and one guy found 80s music-themed Valentines (mine is David Byrne and it says "My heart Byrnes for you").
Y'all have NO IDEA how many typos I just corrected. After only 1 lousy pint. Sheesh.
I was slightly tipsy earlier from a small glass of red wine.
t fist bumps lisah
t only slightly anxiously
And HEY! I get to fist bump you in person this weekend. Or even hug.
So, like, you guys. My roommate and I have been getting along better, mostly because I don't ask for anything. This evening, without even a heads up, he has a friend over and proceeds to play a table top game in the dining area and then puts on a movie. I was working on an estimate* when they got there, and he just assumed I would be the judge in their game. And now they are watching Casino Royale in the living room.
I *told* him earlier today that this week is crazy craft crunch time** for me. That means I need a flat expanse to work on. I'm going to have to talk to him - didn't want to do it in front of his friend. UGGGGH why is he so damn inconsiderate? This especially grates after that whole thing where he didn't want me to have 6 people over with THREE WEEKS NOTICE because it was a week night and we "need to respect each other's down time".
UGGH.
* You guys I just sent off my first real job estimate for someone who isn't a friend. BLARGH. Current boss reviewed it for me and gave me some suggestions. I feel like I'm asking too much (boss thinks I'm asking too little). BLARGH. Can I have some "accept the quote" ~ma?
** Okay, I ended up not really having much time to craft tonight, but I could have done a little something. I'm not going to have any throws for Saturday, ISTG. I have all day off Friday, so I will just be in a frenzy trying to finish throws and my costume. Tomorrow we have practice and Thursday I have another networking thing.
Sorry roommate continues to suck.
~~quotema to you.
Why does it kind of hurt to realize your ex has moved on even when you have moved on?
Ow. I'm hurting, a lot, and I really wish that I could stay home tomorrow, but I can't, because I have work to do that requires my tablet, which I left at the office. And trying to work through pain fog is not going to be fun.
smonster, I understand that women consistently undervalue their work. Is this a quote you'd consider high if you'd received it from another contractor? You have years of experience and skills that you're bringing to work that will have a very tangible outcome. Plus, if you put things a little high and the other party counter offers that still gives you room to negotiate without feeling like you're getting ripped off. Don't undersell yourself--you'll have plenty of a**holes trying to do that for you.
What Calli said.
Virtual hugs to everyone.
Busy day.
I had my 3 month Lasik follow-up today. While my vision is SO MUCH better than it was presurgery, it still isn't without issue. So we are doing a 6 month follow-up as a "pre-enhancement" appointment. Basically, if my vision hasn't improved in that time, they will schedule a "tune up" Lasik procedure. More lasers. Wheee. At least that is free.
