I put a lat-long for Sydney into the map to test it and it hasn't shown up either.

Sorry, Kiba. Hopefully, there's a workaround.

Gah. My next door neighbor was just taken away in an ambulance. His wife (a dear friend of min)said he had some sort of massive seizure. Could I have some ~ma for them?

Kiba, I hope something can be worked out.

Lots of ~ma to your neighbor/friend's DH, Anne, and to her too. I'm glad she's got you for a neighbor.

Oh, Kiba, ugh. How frustrating.

Allyson's hair continues to be just about the prettiest in Prettyland.

I'm so tired I should be sleeping still, but so anxious about work (moving across town in a week and a half; so much yet to do, including non-moving things I let get buried under other things and just unearthed before the move, and now they're gnawing and fretting me) that I'm having a hard time not just getting dressed and going over right now.

Oh, no. Much ~ma for your neighbor, Anne.

Kiba, I hope your situation gets worked out.

Today is not shaping up to be a particularly good day. I need to do something to make it not a total wash. But first, some food I can keep down. I ate all the crackers already.

Timelies all!

Made oatmeal in the slow cooker. Had some with brown sugar and milk. Good start to the day.

Thank you for the ~ma. Nancy and Tom have been excellent friends - the kind of friends who will syringe feed your dying cat on the days you HAVE to go into work. I hope everything turns out to be okay.

It is awfully early for you West Coasters to be up! I hope you can relax some today. Will the move be better or worse for your commute?

Oh, worse. I've been spoiled rotten, living a seven-minute walk from my office; it'll still only be that seven minute walk plus a 25-minute shuttle ride, but I am still bitter. The open office plan when we get there is another whole level of hell, but I've ranted and pity-partied about it so much already that I'm sick of myself.

If anyone has any podcasts to recommend, especially half-hour or shorter ones, I'd love 'em; I can't read in a moving vehicle anymore, so the commute shall have to be filled up with podcasts.

JZ, have you ever listened to "Welcome to Night Vale?" That's a fun series, and is about the right length.

Lots of ~ma, Anne.
