I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, man, I shouldn't be laughing.

Are they taking you out of the will? Are they suggesting that you disagreeing with them may kill them?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Well, if she'd disagree with them, who's to say she won't just up and pull the plug too. So it's important to document your wishes.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

It's weird, because I'm pretty sure Sox and I aren't related, but damn it that doesn't sound like something my family members would do.

I decided to work from home today since I need to leave early for the airport, and I didn't want to haul my giant suitcase downtown through piles of snow this morning. I probably should put on some makeup and fix my hair while my coworkers decide if we're actually having the meeting that starts in 20 minutes.

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

Someone heard me coughing and decided I needed to work from home today. I am okay with that, as I am still tired and could use the opportunity to nap between working on things, but I am 95% sure I am not contagious. Our manager's cousin died from the flu last week, so everyone's a little extra paranoid about germs right now.

Sympathies, Sox. That sounds like a really tiresome way for someone you are related to to live, and no picnic for you.

I think my generalized ick from the past couple of days is turning out to be a cold. Damnit.

Someone cleared off my car for me this morning. I suspect the Serbian guy from across the street.

When CJ goes out to clear off my car, he will disappear for an hour cause he is cleaning off the other cars in the lot also.
