Oh Lisa, that sounds miserable! And Calla, your daughter has been in hospital a few times, right? So she knows what grandma is going through!

I'm mostly annoyed at myself that I didn't get up and work out. Again. I keep packing workout clothes...and not using them...(extra obnoxiously I'll likely have plenty of time before my flight, but nowhere to shower after exercising, since I already checked out of my hotel, and have no rental car)

meara, is there any kind of a gym day pass you could finagle?

Oh no, Lisa! My coworker apparently had some kind of stomach bug over the weekend, but is better enough to be here today? But wasn't sure how long she would last. I told her, next time stay home! Feel better.

I made a (turkey)BLTA sandwich for lunch today at work, and am now wondering why I've made so many turkey & cheese sandwiches that don't taste nearly as good over the past year.

In case anyone was in doubt, Uptown Funk IS gonna give it to ya.

Just to be clear.

BLTA sandwich

Does A = avocado? Because that makes everything better. (Also bacon, even in turkey form.)

They have a sandwich like that at a place in my office lobby but I get it with hummus instead of avocado. Nom.

That is correct. Vegetables in particular are much more bitter to young kids.

How the hell was this not in my arsenal of facts to throw at my mother while I sat at the table for hours wailing over being required to eat broccoli.

Though my mom was pretty good about stuff like that. You never got a whole separate meal, but for a long time she would pour out a bowl of frozen peas (straight from the freezer) and put them out for me to eat in lieu of having more than a bite of whatever other veg she had made.

Still. It's the kind of thing my snotty inner 7-year-old would have loved to throw out there.

My fave picky eater kid quote is my friends' daughter, maybe 3 or 4 at the time, refusing to eat a piece of grilled chicken "That piece got cooking on it!" because piece had a little toasted brown bit.

I took a look at my work email and got exhausted just trying to set up my out of office message saying I'm sick today. oof.

No work e-mail for you, lisah! Rest and get better. Ugh.

Mmm, BLAT (although I prefer the T in paste form).

Pretty annoyed that work is wanting me to work. As usual.

Yeah, seriously. Why the fuck we gotta work?

My body is not behaving. I think there might be things in places that don't belong there. I guess a call to the doctor is in order. But I can't make that call from the office, so I guess I need to go home for lunch.

That will give the opportunity to eat healthier, so bonus. Oh maybe also take care of an errand. Ok, now I am looking forward to the excursion instead of dreading having to move.

The only reason I'm accomplishing anything today is because I've got my headphones in and I'm cranking the new Fall Out Boy album.
