Gunn ,'Not Fade Away'
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.
I have gained a little weight and am trying to eat less candy, so every day I resolve "no candy" but then every day seems to boil down to "kill my husband, or eat candy?" and I eat candy. Sigh.
Home renovations, they're not for kids, folks, and my husband seems like he's actually a kid hiding in the body of a 6'6" 48 year old.
I'm sorry, flea. Husband is very good with a lot of things, but there are some other ones that make me want to strangle him.
I'm considering going to the ER for this migraine. Woo?
For those in need of good news: One of the new Nobel Laureates in Medicine is my PhD advisor's PhD advisor.
My advisor's postdoc advisor is also a Nobel Laureate, so I have two Nobel-winning grand-advisors!
Nice, Una!!
I want to have the energy post-work to get things done but I keep...not having it.
Mmmm, candy. gives Mr. flea the stinkeye
Sending soothing thoughts toward Dana's brain.
Nice, Una! Mmmmm, brainiacs.
Oh dear, flea and Dana. Dana, I would go to the ER, even if you wouldn't normally, given your trip, right? Ugh.
Very cool, Una!

Same, same.
Eventually, the totally unprecedented anxious-making things at work have got to stop, right? It's one thing that never happens after another!
Timelies all!
Soon I will give Mr. S a bath.(which means I will probably get drenched, as he likes to splash a lot) Gary's on a business trip, so I'm flying solo.
flea, I am a willing alibi. IJS.
Dana, that migraine needs to go away. I hope the ER can help.
Very cool, Una!
Same, meara.
Migraine~ma, Dana.
Sorry to post and run, that kinda day. Earning my superior performer status ( and the percentage raise isn't all that, but I know what the pool is like, so 3.2% at my salary, I'll take it. It's like 10 pairs of full price flues, after taxes! Reality: up retirement contribution to eat it up.)
Cat fountain arrived. Both cats wouldn't stop drinking out of it, so I think it might cure the toilet drinking. It's even ceramic! [link]
Complete change of pace, but I can't stop thinking about it:
On the way home, saw aftermath of what mighta been a hit and run. Middling teen crumpled on sidewalk, feeling gingerly up torso, feet in street. Pulled over blocking traffic to call 911, but saw 2 other people pulled off safer, busting out of their cars& running towards him on their phones, so figured I was redundant and a hazard. Heard sirens shortly thereafter. It's a bad spot, pedestrians cross there & visibility for oncoming traffic is bad.. I really hope he's ok.
