I think some of the smellier Christmas decorations are giving me a migraine.
The King of Cups expects a picnic. But this is not his birthday!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Wait, a colonoscopy requires an IV?!

Ann, that's a ferret.
They administered the sedative by IV. At least, I think it was IV. Needle in back of hand, nearly passed out, cold cloth to forehead -- just like my surgery a couple of years ago.
One of the nurses had been a military medic. He told me that the big, tough Marines were the ones that actually passed out from needles.

I woke up in the middle of my colonoscopy. Ask me how fun that was.

I think these smelly Christmas sticks are ScentSicles, or something like it? I think I may have to ask people to get rid of them, or possibly just stay away from my desk for a couple of days. I have a banging headache and itchy eyes and an itchy throat.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Woke up around 3 am this morning by a car alarm for a microcar in the neighborhood. It was literally the loudest car alarm I have heard in my life. Our smoke detector and the house alarm are not as loud as that fucking thing.
Why such a small car needs such a loud alarm is beyond me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You have to work from home through Epiphany!
I am killing time before my going-away party.

Man. What would I do now without being able to type "When is Epiphany?" or "What time is it in Beijing?" and have the Googles tells me.

You would call the public library. Some people still do. (And we use the Googles and answer them.)

This is true! I remember when calling a telephone number for the time was a thing people.
