I feel almost embarrassed at feeling too warm and uncomfortable in what counts for balmy everywhere else, but it's San Francisco. We're not used to the high 70s!
Medically, all kinds of surgery~ma to Grace and her caregivers, and yay mom of meara! And Suzi, I so hope everything has finally kicked in and you were able to crash.
We had a serious Freecycle score last night: a giant bag of girls' costume pieces. Matilda spent the whole night posing in front of the mirror dressed as Moaning Myrtle and swaying all over the apartment dressed as a a hula girl (the hallway is littered with shed bits of raffia). She was so happy she actually cackled with glee. Cackled!
And now off to work and the early Tuesday meeting, and then a long day in the non-air-conditioned, 7-foot-high-windows-facing-the-afternoon-sun office. Bleargh.
So much surgery~ma to Grace. Suzi, I hope your pain is eased.
Good luck to all job seekers.
I adore Matilda. Just sayin'.

I did get a few hours of sleep but was up before my usual alarms. I've been trying to get some work done, but my concentration bites. Mouth just refuses to calm down - ibuprophen, lorazapram, warm herbal tea, plain oatmeal, wearing my bottom brace, not wearing the brace. Nada. I have left a message to see the dentis today. If she has no ideas, I'm calling my regular doc. This is NOT ON.
Suzi, maybe you need a stronger painkiller than ibuprofen. (Sorry if that's the totally obvious conclusion you already arrived at; I'm undercaffeinated at the moment.)
I have ibuprofen, lorazapram, and Vicodin. Trying to balanc the three to stay functional.

Ooh, that sounds awesome!
Yeah, that is a tricky balance when you want to stay functional. I hope your dentist has a solution for you -- dental pain sucks hard.

As a contrast, it's 60F in Chicago and I'm wearing a sweater.
No jacket, though. That would be ridiculous.
We're down to a predicted high of 87 today. I'm excited! Except that I double-checked my phone and now it says 97. Boo.
Today's outfit complies with the buffista office appropriate dress code: cap-sleeved tunic over a mid-calf length skirt, bare legs. Most importantly, this skirt has pockets. For a moment this morning I considered wearing polka-dots with checks, but I chickened out and went with a solid.
I also didn't realize that IEEE would have their own jobs site! That would be good inasmuch as I speak fluent Engineerise.
Yes, the long dark winter of our hiring freeze is over! To avoid confusion, I should mention, IEEE has two "jobs" sites: one for eng and tech jobs in the industry, not with us, and one for jobs with IEEE. We have offices in CA, DC, NY, and NJ. It's a good company.
