My mom has pointed to stuff "Chica" wrote online and been like "That girl quotes David Simon too...you should call her." and it's like "That's me."

I seem to recall a COMM about a Buffista who wrote under two different nom de plumes, and someone accused one name of ripping off the other. Something about the most pointless flame war ever.

Thanks, JZ. Me, too.

I'm sorry about your Grandma, MM.

Brenda, glad to hear good news.

Happy birthday, Andi!

Spohia, I've been oversleeping for the last week or so. I don't know if it's just Winter, or if it's a stress, or my body adjusting to coming off the meds, or a combo, but whatever it is, it's kicking my butt. Been staying up too late, too, just to get stuff done, that's part of the problem, but I still feel like I could sleep for days. And weird stress dreams, too. Last night I dreamed I sprouted thorns on my left shoulder. I'm usually awakened by the cat walking on me and whining, too.

My blood pressure hasn't been under 128/85 for a very long time, and often over. It's still normal, but high normal, and sometimes it spikes. The answer seems to be, lose weight. Right, isn't that the answer to ALL my problems, doctor? Too bad it seems to be impossible.

Calli, sorry about the downer day. May an employer soon wisely recognize your genius and hire you.

Today it's jacket-weather warm and birds are singing, and it feels like spring. It's a dirty trick, it's supposed to snow Monday.

And I have super tense shoulders and a massive headache. That's one thing this drug I'm weaning myself off of did for me, I had no body aches and no headaches. Unfortunately, I also lost feeling in my toes and got awful swelling and aches in my lower legs and feet, so that's not an acceptable trade-off. Dammit. Why can't someone make (or find) the perfect drug?

I'm so sorry MM. I am so down with no more dying, with or without the pet unicorn.

And happy birthday, Andi!

And I joined TT with the psued and no one ever said anything. I guess belle really could have been my name.

I've been downloading a new version of software for over an hour. Can't really do other work or it is even slower.

That's awesome.

Lunch was very good, but on the way back TAL was on (the story about a cloned bull) and my co-worker whose daughter is in the ICU with burns was waiting for HR so I chatted with her a bit and now I would much rather lie down and cry then work.

But I will work. Just had to get that out somewhere.

I remember someone recommending me a "really good" fanfic once and I happily told her it was mine. Forgetting we were in public, she shrieked "That was the best blowjob I ever read!" and all the little old ladies having lunch stared and stared. And we fell down laughing.

That's adorable.

I used this name on TT as well, because I figured that I just needed a name that SOUNDED like a real name.

Wait. We don't have to use our real names anymore?

Wow, Trivia Crack is aptly named.

So your mother is trying to fix you up with yourself?

As far as I know, I am the only Ginger Mylastname in the history of the planet. There's something about pseuds that feels awkward to me, which leads me into confusion when I try to sign up for something and every possible variation other than my full name is taken.

Happy birthday, WS!
