It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, wow, Sue!

Craaaaaaaaamps. Joy. Simultaneously pukey and hungry.

The snow is basically sublimating into the air it's so warm, which means low-hanging fog everywhere. And then tonight it's supposed to drop to something ridiculous like -8?

That's what happened here yesterday/last night. Crazy fog, and now it's 0. Working from home FTW today, man.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, it's creepy outside.

Good luck, Sue!!

It's like 47 here, foggy and quite rainy. But it's supposed to be in the teens by midnight, so that all this will be unto a sheet of ice. SIGH.

It is cold for us. teens. Too cold to ship out product at my work, but one stupid contractor is wanting product, so we are sending it. stupid.

I have work, but I DO NOT WANNA.

The wind is COOOOOOOOOOLD. It's coldish without the wind, but then it starts to blow and you feel like you're gonna die. (Signed, thank god the bus was on time this morning.)

I am coping by mainlining Hershey kisses.

Man, the AMA offices are in Chicago, and we just got an email that they're closed b/c of the temperatures today. So no new work for me today. Looks like I have no excuse not to clean the bathroom. Bah.

Steph, I heard there are some cats that need stacking, it may delay your bathroom cleaning, ijs.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

It's in the 20s here and the news people are freaking out.

Last night the mutant bone in my mouth progressed to the point where I needed Vicodin, so it was off to the 24-hour pharmacy with us. Thank god we now live somewhere with a 24-hour pharmacy less than a mile away.
