I'd say that's a true sign that someone needs to keep better snacks in her desk.
Ah, but then I would never NOT have m&ms, and this way, I only have them sometimes.
Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

We were looking at a Diva run, Strix, but it's on a weekend when one of us was out of town. I would like to do one of those.
Ah, but then I would never NOT have m&ms, and this way, I only have them sometimes.
That is a tough line to walk. I keep a bunch of candy at a far corner of my desk ostensibly for people who come talk to me to have, but also so I always have some available. It's out of my eye-line and I can, apparently, forget it is there so I don't just eat candy all day every day, but I am not at the mercy of the fickle vending machines.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I signed up for a 5k in October with some of my co-workers. That should be enough time for me to get ready.
My 5K is a week from tomorrow. I'm not convinced I'm ready, mostly because my sprained ankle is a jerk and I haven't been able to really train the way I needed to. I walked 2 miles in 40 minutes the other day, and I'm about to go take a walk in a few minutes, so I'm pretty sure I can make it for 3.1 miles. But I'm actually kind of nervous about it.

Just take your time. Push yourself at the end rather than the beginning.

You will be fine! Take it easy and don't hurt yourself, though, do like brenda says.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
While today does seem warmer than yesterday, it's nowhere near the 70s that was predicted.

I figured out the reason I feel extra terrible today. My temperature is elevated even after taking acetaminophen earlier. I am curled up in bed watching a Netflix DVD and definitely not going out to dinner tonight.

Bed and Netflix sounds like a suitable treatment plan.
I am off to pick up the Chinese takeout I ordered online Wednesday. Oh brave new world that has such dining options in it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm pretty excited to not work this weekend. Even though it means I remain behind in my database updates. But fuckit, I've worked good parts of the last two weekends, so I am taking this one off!
