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

Never! I'm actively working on having no shame.

Going overtime in the interview sounds promising. Good luck.

Sounds promising, ita! I hope you get good news about it soon.

Fred, I hope the vet gets those dosage issues resolved quickly.

I just ordered networking business cards. Networking--it's gonna be introvert hell. But at least they're pretty cards.

Good luck, ita!

Well, last night was kinda hilarious. The announcers were droning on about how many goals the US has allowed in the first five minutes of play, and how hard that is to come back from, and almost simultaneously Dempsey scores.

The general feeling around the office is that it's embarrassing in general to lose to the US team.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I just started to go to my oncology appointment and discovered that I hadn't quite latched the door and the car battery is dead. They'll probably charge me a cancellation fee, and I'll have to have a separate appointment for my Procrit shot, which adds another $50. Here's an example of the insanity of medical costs. I could give myself the Procrit shot, but as a prescription, it would cost me $150 a shot. If I get the shot during a nurse visit, it's $50 and if I get it during an appointment for something else, there's no additional charge.

Also, I feel like death eating a cracker.

I have a battery charger, but it's 90 degrees out there and thundering. I'm not sure running a wire from the house to the car is a good idea if there's lightning.
