Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
So this morning's new symptom? A rash. Fortunately, it's mild and not itchy. But this can stop any time now.
I called the nurse hotline and I was told that I am highly contagious for two days after the blisters appear. So I guess I am staying home for the rest of the week. I don't feel that bad, but...
Currently trying to get my TiVo to talk to my computer so I can watch The Americans from the comfort of my couch.
I don't know why I am so exhausted and semi-burned-out, but the idea of a contagious disease that doesn't make me feel terrible is really appealing right now.
Hope your Tivo co-operates, Sue, and you continue to not feel that bad.
Oh, there were a couple of days of feeling terrible, don't worry. But I do know that feeling.
Oh, there were a couple of days of feeling terrible, don't worry.
Oh, good! WAIT. Not good!
I am hopeful that my weekend of actually no social plans will help. I really don't know how people have kids.
When I woke up this morning, I couldn't find my glasses. My brand-new, expensive glasses. Left them in a bar last night. I had the same pair of glasses for over ten years, and now I've lost two pairs in the past couple months. Hopefully, they're still at the bar, but I won't find out until after work.
Yesterday, I had a rough therapy session, which makes me anxious, which makes me do stupid things, which makes me even more anxious. And we were discussing in therapy about how I need to stop beating myself up over things,and then I go and do something that seems to be an act of self-sabotage, just so that I can go on beating myself up over it. It's very frustrating.
That's rough, Tom. I hope the glasses are still there, and that you can be easy on yourself for leaving them either way.
People forget things. All the time. You're a people, hence -- you did a people thing.
Can I tell you how many times I've searched frantically for my glasses when they were ON MY FACE? Or stepped into a shower with them on?
Everybody does that sort of thing, Tom. I left my regular glasses at home last week, which wouldn't have been a problem, except I was out after dark and had to drive home wearing my prescription sunglasses. That was fun!
Which reminds me, I probably need a new prescription. We just had benefits enrollment and I signed up for the vision plan, hopefully I can get a new pair of glasses.
And I once again came to work without my phone. I'm not expecting a call today, so I'll just try to manage without, I guess.
