And complaining fixed it. so convenient.

Sigh. This time last week I was lounging around Vegas deciding between a nap and a shady spot by the pool with a book.

I could be rich, I'd be responsible and distribute the wealth and be polite and not a bother. It doesn't have to be much, $20 million, I could be happy with that.

I've hit a wall of tired so I'm drinking coffee. I have maybe two meetings left, so I just have to hold it together for another hour and then we're off for food and pitchers of beer and sangria.

I have another 7:30am meeting tomorrow, but at least I can attend it from the hotel and "sleep in" until 6:30.

I was really hoping to leave work on time today. Not happening. Sigh.

I'm feeling like a toddler about to throw a tantrum. My flight was delayed so I have to fly to Atlanta and then Seattle and get home at the equivalent of 4am to my brain (after the doctor I wS working with flipped out at me for ten full minute monologue at 8am this morning) there are a total of TWO stalls in the one women's restroom...and several hundred people out here. It's fucking nonsense and I'm hungry and tired and still have hours to go and I just want to throw myself on the floor and wail.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

t face palm I just sent an email to one of the partners that was supposed to reference the bigger set [of cases], only that isn't exactly what I typed.

Also, our spell check system doesn't catch things that I really wish it would.

That sounds awful, meara!

I guess that "unsend" option isn't available, Lee?

Leaving only 45 minutes late, that's not so bad I guess. And my plans this evening are not so time sensitive, although I am seriously tempted not to go home before dinner because it's not enough time to do anything.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Quiet on the boards tonight...

Well, the nice thing is I decided to splurge and buy the wifi when I checked in, so I've got that at least. ...until my iPad runs out of battery? Fingers crossed maybe my next flight has a plug at the seat.

AAAAAUUUUUUUHHHHHHGGGGG. Got mad at the ivy out back when I took the recycling out, and yanked a ton out. Attacked by mosquitoes. Itchy itchy.
