I miss being able to sing the Messiah. I always have a cold or something this time of year.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
The in-laws are leaving a day early due to weather! This means tomorrow morning.
They aren't horrible people, despite my complaining. I just get frustrated because they're smart, well educated, and very well traveled. Yet there's still the casual, unthinking racism, classism, and homophobia. It disappoints me.
Anyway. Tomorrow I get my life back!

It's good you have somewhere to vent, Dana. Inlaws can be tricksy, so to keep the peace is important if you can.
I'm awfully sniffly this morning, so I may have caught my roommate's cold. Especially if Sudafed isn't doing much about it at the moment, and I haven't been stirring up enough dust for this to be allergies. SIGH

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
Need better quality chocolate. And more bourbon.
Words to live by.
(and I do.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG, I am exhausted. And made it to work by the skin of my teeth -- I have got to figure out my new routine better. But it feels very relaxing here, without any boxes or family members!

How far are you from the T, Jesse?
Thanksgiving has totally fucked up my appetite. I get ravenously hungry, then I get full after eating two bites, then I get hungry again an hour later.

Close -- it's like a 7 minute walk. But I thought maybe taking the bus made sense? (I think it does not.) Also, I almost walked out of the house with no makeup on.

That was me all day on Friday! I got over it, though.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I am hungry this morning but that could be normal. Anyhoo, eating breakfast before showering today.
I am resentful that I need to go into work today. That's a problem, right? Most stressful Thanksgiving holiday in a long while. I think I got about 2-3 hours max of actual relaxation in the whole five days (apart from actually being asleep).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oof. I'm really tired for some reason. I considered calling in sick and staying home, but I managed to scrape together enough energy to make it in.
We saw my dad yesterday morning and he was much more coherent. Of course he didn't remember anything from the previous night. We were surprised that they were starting him on PT (trying to get him to walk) the day after the surgery.
Work is slow today, so maybe I can get a bunch of online x-mas shopping done.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am so glad I did a bunch of the month end stuff on Tuesday when I was in. This morning has gone so much smoother than if I was trying to get that done. 1 guy is out, another guy was in late due to a funeral (18 year old cousin killed over the weekend on a motorcycle accident).
