Captain was looking for a pilot. I found a husband. Seemed to work out.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am starving, but there's no sign of husband. To compensate, I had Girl Scout cookies.

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

That seems reasonable.

Did I mention I am picking up another account? Kind of a big one, dollar-wise, too. I hope this is not about to become an overwhelming amount of work. It might be.

Meanwhile, those zombies are not going to chase themselves. Or will they? I don't really know what zombies get up to if there aren't any humans around.

I think I have not actually congratulated brenda "out loud" yet. Woo, brenda, that is super impressive!

YAy brenda!

We passed accreditation on Tuesday, I think. Nothing official but it looks like we should be okay.

To celebrate, I left work early and bought two bras. Which, together, cost more than a car payment. Went to Jenette Bras in Pasadena: [link] where they nice patient women were nice and patient with me. I love that they carry 26E as a bra size (though I have no need of that).

WNGWJLEO (which you don't see much anymore, I admit)

I don't even know what that means!!

I am officially ensconced in the apartment I'm staying in in Mexico, with guacamole, salsa, and beer. However, I bought coffee and milk, but assumed (since there was maple syrup and nutella in the fridge!) there'd be sugar. NOPE. Salt, and spices, and various vinegars and stuff, but no sugar. Grr. There are only little minimarts near here, I'm not sure how far to go for a real supermarket, but wanted to do it while I had energy this evening--since I got up at 5AM today I"m not sure how late I"ll be awake! Guess I'll have to go out again later....

It does seem like WNGWJLEO should have something to do with West Wing.

"I like the chicken wings."

Which... she does know that there are places you can get chicken wings without the complimentary naked ladies, right? Or is that a value added thing for her?

those zombies are not going to chase themselves. Or will they?

Well, some of them are getting sekrit messages to chase people, you know... Which I shouldn't say anymore, because I think I'm ahead of you. Spoilers, sweetie!

And season 3 starts in April! I suspect I will not catch up for some time, especially if I go back to work, since I only do ZR when I'm running by myself, not with my sister.

You are definitely ahead of me, Consuela! The 5K training all takes place before Mission #2 (of season 1, I guess? I haven't needed to get that sorted that out) so I have LOTS of catching up to do (starting in April, after I actually run a 5K!). I am getting teeny hints of story, mostly - it's already terribly interesting.
