If you need someone to be stern with people apparently I am your girl. Roommate is non confrontational but upset by neighbors' loud party (her room faces them, mine doesn't). I volunteered to go over and yell at people. Seriously, folks, if you have a DJ and sound system set up in your living room, and have neighbors like, 10 feet away? Don't ALSO have a the windows open. Eesh. Talked to several people who were like "no I don't live here and I don't see the guy who does but I'll tell him" and I had to keep insisting I needed to actually talk to him, as I didn't want to have to say "well, I told some guy who said he'd tell you..." Neighbor was nice and reasonable, and closing the windows and keeping te music a bit quieter seems to keep it to reasonable levels. Yay.

Now, that's a roommately thing to do. Mine is down with a cold that she evidently got from Jilli's Thanksgiving, somehow.

I am seriously contemplating going to the 24/7 big grocery store, since I've already been awake for most of an hour and why the hell not.

The day after I moved to Boston, I grocery shopped at 6am. I had gone to bed super early for lack of any entertainment in my apartment, and exhaustion from moving, so why not?

Am glad I'm not moving today in the rain.

I strenuously hope this is the beginning of better weeks for many people here!

Timelies all!

Sorry so many people have had crappy weeks.

I'm up, coffee is brewing, I'm hoping to grade. Sent Isaac back to bed as he's been going to sleep at 10 this break and he needs more sleep. I'm not hopeful however that he'll get it.

Grace fell out of bed last night which prompted hysteria. The she needed suctioning part way through the night.

ugh! Not enough sleep.

Poor Grace. Poor Kat, too, sounds like a bad night for all of you.

Isaac is officially up. Oh well. At least the coffee is brewed.

I made it out to the grocery store, and even remembered to make a list and get everything that was on it! If I don't do anything else today, at least I've got that....

I must have been more stressed about that interview than I thought because I spent a lot of yesterday sleeping. I slept in until 9, accidentally napped from 5:30-9 PM, then from 2-6:30 AM.

tommyrot, I hope your dad heals quickly.

Wow-much am for all the hurt buffisras and families.

I am at work and I don't wanna. And someone has removed the mirror in the girls dressing room, which is problematic.

My mom just got 2 little black kittens, who are sisters. She needs names, but she keeps coming up with names of famous black women. Which is a little uncomfortable, although I do like Eartha Kitty
