Man, I hear about water having memory and all I can think is I sure hope not or we'd all have a lot more dysentery.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And she's aware that there's nothing actually in them, but she says that "the memory of the chemical is there." She has a doctorate in electrical engineering!

My goodness. People!

Uh-huh re: Colbert.

Yikes, -t. Also, Hee!

I made it through the day. Turns out it was day 1 of 3 days of training, which at least meant less time on the computers, which is good. Not so good was the ambient noise in the classroom at every break. At lunch I got a quick sandwich & ginger ale and sat out in the sun, which helped some. But when I got home, I had to collapse into bed for half an hour.

SO grateful my BIL works a block from me and is willing to give me rides this week.

On the down side, I have no energy to hang out with the coworkers who are in town for training, which is a drag because I really like them.

Oh, good on getting a ride that way -- that has to be a great help!

I was reasonably productive today -- got a bunch of housekeeping stuff knocked out, had a phone interview, finished a set of lessons on Wordpress feeling like I'd learned a lot of what I want to know.

Because books.

Where/how are you taking the courses, Theo?

That's a good thing.

Jesus, msbelle, that's unfair. And complete asshattery.

ANd then I got a you have been in a mood for 3 weeks what is the deal talk.

'You owe me $40 and a half day that's what." And next time anyone tries to stop you leaving "family obligation" is true-you are family too and you need to make sure you are taken care of. Too often, we all will give non-nego for kids' stuff, but somehow not for us. I wish my bosses on everyone-they believe self care and cannot-deal-meltdown days are legit unplanned sick leave.

And of course, today was one of those days I should have indulged (I was really uncomfortable and it made me snappy) but because there was shit I wanted done so I can forget it, I was in. Broke even, I guess.
