One more day of construction. Oy.
And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm glad for those of you with small joys. I am having one of Those Days. Because I didn't see the doctor until about an hour and a half after my scheduled appointment time, I was kind of light-headed. That, combined with (spoiler-fonted for girly) a fairly painful pelvic exam meant that as soon as the doctor left the room, I almost passed out. I thought I could make it over to the bench with my clothes. I was wrong. So now a nurse has seen me curled up on the floor, naked, trying not to pass out.
She was very nice and brought me a bottle of water and a snack, and I beat myself up for not eating a decent breakfast, but everything is just ick now. The parking at the doctor's office is always insanely stressful, and then I went to Panera to get some decent food, but even at 1:30 it was mobbed and parking was insane again, and it's 90 degrees outside, and I'm at the library (where parking was insane) trying to use the wifi to get some work done, but all of the desks are full because people actually use this library or some bullshit.
I will be fine. I have plans for more food and a shake before my 6:30 rehearsal.

Waiting for people to get back with me on things so I can finish work stuff. Twiddle thumbs.
I also don't want to go home in 2 hours. No good alternatives. I wish I had a nearby weekend cabin. This is why pets are an issue in my life, I cannot stay elsewhere.

I am having one of Those Days.
You totally are.
I'm taking the next couple of days to do a mindfulness meditation course, and I'm just accepting that my inbox will explode.
One of the course instructors looks and sounds like Alexander Skarsgard, which is entertaining me.

Our wings are not tired.
Damn, Dana! That is Not A Good Day. May it make up for its awfulness of the morning by granting you a delightful evening.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh man, Dana, that's a lot of no fun.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I got the voicemail of the annoying author who I was supposed to call (which I understand -- he's a physician, busy day, etc.). But he hasn't called me back yet, and I just took the most powerful of my migraine drugs, so if he calls, I am going to be tripping balls. Wooooooo.

Just like the woman who called and said "I just took sleeping pills, let's make this quick." It wasn't quick, and she got very incoherent.

Wheeeee, tripping balls Teppy goes to the mat for edits! Bet now bet now bet now!
Meanwhile, today an IT guy said he was giving me a new password due to making a new laptop for me. Ok, I wrote it down. At some point today it would prompt for me to enter that. Ok. ...but apparently that prompt coincided with a massive VPN issue? So now I am utterly locked out of my computer and even email on my phone. Jesus.
