Thanks, people! I am definitely going to need some cheerleading, I think. And shrift, I may take you up on that -- Chantix is one of those drugs where the possible side effects make me a little wary.

But cloudy for two days, a little windy, SUPER humid, and raining on and off with temps in the 60s is not my favorite.

Same, except here the temp is near 80 every day, and I hate it. I want fall.

We're going to have lows near freezing here in Utah for the next couple of days.

I have purchased a bottle of wine! Because why not, regrets are for Future Me! I'm still waiting on my Cuban food to arrive, though.

I totally had concerns going in due to the possible side effects, so I hear you.

Timelies all!

Recovery~ma for Lisa's uncle!

Ugh. The shoes I wore to services tonight rub my feet sore in a few places. Sad thing is that they are one of only two pairs of dressy shoes I have that fit.(The other are dressy sandals) I probably need to buy new dressy shoes, but that is difficult because of my weird sized feet.(6 1/2-7 D or EE width, depending on the style) I do not have the time to play Zappos roulette.

Wishing health to many. I'm kinda not tracking. 5 hrs of meetings with installation prep crammed in between. And they made it worse, not better. Ops is cranky.

How is it only 9? I may also be pmsing. Lordies.

That's awesome, Amy! Free~lungs~ma to you. It is a real joy to have it behind you. (although not a blast in the short run)

Tommyrot, when you are settled in and want to explore a bit check out Strawberry Hill Povitica. [link] That's the one place I can think of that is near-ish to you and isn't a chain.

Ugh, I did not sleep well at all last night -- am afraid the extra coffee I was drinking yesterday morning was not decaf?? But then why did I also wake up early? In short: gronk.

Anti-nicotine~ma, Amy!

Wow, that sounds like quite the nightmare, Matt! I had one that was just me watching a wound pulse in some anonymous person's skin. Pretty sure it wasn't me, but still. Very quiet. Very disturbing.

Health ~ma to Matt's dad and lisah's uncle!

Meara and Dana, I hope you both feel better soon.

I had a quarterly checkin with one of my managers yesterday. He was very encouraging and happy about the quality of my work. So naturally my first (and second and third and . . . ) reaction was to wonder when he'd stumble upon my true incompetence. There was a seminar on imposter syndrome available last week. Perhaps I should have attended.

Despite having gone to bed at 9 last night, I was still super-grumpy when my alarm woke me up at 6:45.

Calli, shush your imposter syndrome. You're doing great. Your manager just told you so.
