I've had a sore throat the last couple of days and this morning, my nose and lungs have decided to join the party. I'm still in SLC and fly home late tonight. It is gonna be a looooooooooong day. Plus I'll feel like I'm taking the plague on the plane.
Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

I'm still in SLC
Maybe it's just the crappy Utah winter air. There's a haze over the valleys, and it's not the good stuff.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
sarameg, hearing about your meeting, I was reminded of a story I heard years ago - an art director for an ad agency was extremely tough ... he'd pretty much rip people's ideas apart unmercifully. One day, a designer who was going to meet with him, before actually going in tossed in a large raw steak (in the hopes that he'd rip into that instead of himself).

Things have gone delightfully pear-shaped at work (for a kind of delight experienced by the villain of the piece) and given I am leaving in 5.5 hrs for 2.5 weeks, there is nothing I can do about it.
There's something sort of restful in reaching the point where all you can say is, "Yep. It's screwed." No more running or shouting to be done. I hope your 2.5 weeks off are enjoyable.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I slept horribly and a crazy driver did his best to kill me on the freeway this morning. I hope he breaks a shoelace at a really inconvenient time.

I had someone nearly run me down this morning as I was crossing the street ... guess he thought that red octagonal sign didn't apply to him ....

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

That's kind of awesome. :)
I woke up with a headache, and am feeling very emotionally blah. Probably just due to the headache, but dang.

I keep reading through my inbox and muttering about my murderous intentions.
I think I've Adulted myself into a place where I've accomplished a giant list of tasks, and now all I have to think about is how my job situation is in limbo. God damn it.
