I took a 7:30am meeting from my hotel room this morning, and now I'm on my way down to Mountain View for more meetings. I'm already looking forward to a night in with Indian take out and TV.
Here is your cup of coffee. Brewed from the finest Colombian lighter fluid.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Actually, I think I mostly feel bad today because I took medicine. We'll see if this is true tomorrow.
Ooh, I hate when you're kind of sick, and the medicine side effects are just about as bad as the sickness, so you have to choose one...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, it's the cotton-filled head that I think is from the drugs. Better or worse than the mucus-filled head from the cold? TBD. Yesterday doesn't count, because I wasn't trying to think about anything yesterday.

You guys, Richard Simmons' Instagram feed is PURE GOLD. It has replaced searching #capybaras as my I-need-to-feel-better Instagram search. He is spectacularly fabulous.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, 6+ hours after I took the medicine, it has totally worn off and I guess it is better? Man, it's a good thing I hardly ever get sick, because literally all I want to do is lie around and whine about it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I think lying around and whining promotes healing, personally.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I think lying around and whining promotes healing, personally.
There was a study a while back that proved scientifically that swearing helps with pain - I see no reason not to extend that principle to whining as well.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I think lying around and whining promotes healing, personally.
That explains why I'm feeling so much better today, because I whined plenty yesterday.

So it looks like my days as a pork eater have come to an end. Hubby can't eat pork, so I indulge at lunch and breakfast at work. And have had various internal issues. The possible correlation dawned horribly on me several weeks ago, so I've been running experiments of pork exclusion (sob). Today, due to the chaos of moving to a new office building, I've had to resort to an old pork-based breakfast--and paid the price.
Thank you, Lord and Lady, for poultry based bacon, sausage, and ham, otherwise life would lose a great deal of joy.

I should get a grant to study this, obviously.
