Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Go boots!!!

Had my annual review. I am fantastic. I "set the standard" for others in our group. AND I meet expectations. No exceeds this year. For a year that included "voluntary" retirement and layoffs, I'm not going to fuss. But I did tell my boss that I am already aware of some project challenges coming up this year and if I can figure a good way through them, I'm going to push for exceeds cause it will be a fucking miracle. He agreed with that goal. Now I just need to figure out how to put that in corporate goal speak.

I cam home after our meeting and promptly took a nap from which I just awoke. So now I'm trying to get the nerve up to check e-mail and see if anything blew up while I slept.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You are fantastic, Suzi! Good one.

I'm down to my hiking boots.

Yeah, that's where I've been since last week. It could be worse, except for the wet calves.

Home from the doctor with nasal spray, a prescription for Z-pac, and stern orders to "Take it goddamn easy, Jillian. I know you, you've been trying to take care of everything and everyone. AGAIN."

Yeah, my doctor knows my patterns.

My coworker loves her BOGS, and we get much slush here. (I'm already seeing ads for BOGS all over my internet.)

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I actually found myself annoyed with the big handles, as that was less height that I was protected.

Ah, should have put my "born & raised in San Diego" (so very little knowledge of actual practicalities of winter boots)disclaimer. I just thought they were awesome because sometimes when I'm pulling on a pair of newer, not broken-in yet fake-Uggs, I'd happily pay money for something like those handles for wrestling them on.

There's a Downtown Waterfront Specific Plan meeting tonight. I have opinions that I suspect will be underrepresented, but I don't think I can make myself go. Dammit.

Go Suzi go! That's awesome.

So far, this has been a two hot chocolates a day kind of week. Which reminds me, Hec (if you are out there) did you pull off the Full Flanders?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I had hot chocolate with whipped cream (and Bailey's) last night, and I briefly thought about trying the Full Flanders, but I am lazy as hell and already had booze in my hot chocolate, so I was content with my lot.
