So much surgery~ma to Grace. Suzi, I hope your pain is eased.
Good luck to all job seekers.
I adore Matilda. Just sayin'.
My whole life just flashed before my eyes! I gotta get me a life!

And Suzi, I so hope everything has finally kicked in and you were able to crash.
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.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
We had a serious Freecycle score last night: a giant bag of girls' costume pieces.
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.

I feel almost embarrassed at feeling too warm and uncomfortable in what counts for balmy everywhere else, but it's San Francisco.
As a contrast, it's 60F in Chicago and I'm wearing a sweater.
No jacket, though. That would be ridiculous.

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
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.

Also, it's 80 degrees here with 66% humidity and Chicago sounds real good to me, as I sit here sweating from the terrible exertion of walking inside from the car.
