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.
Rephrasing is often my solution.
I am out of sorts right now, which I know is because I'm more or less trying to do three jobs, but of course I'm not doing any of them well, and it's starting to catch up with me. AND in the meantime, I'm getting negative feedback on stuff my three-weeks-in staff member is doing WHICH IS FINE. The stuff she is doing is FINE. Jesus christ.
Sorry to hear that, Jesse. Chill out, other people.
10 minutes before I can leave - not enough time to start anything new I don't think
I'd go with "There are."
Nora, I would go with "There are," as well.
I am home with falafel (currently in ma belleh) and wine (in progress), so that's better.
BIL called a little while ago. It's definitely active multiple myeloma. Baby brother spent the day having his port inserted, and tomorrow the chemo starts. Bone marrow transplant in the near future.
His doctors (he's at Mt. Sinai in NYC, which has the best long-term survival rates on the East Coast and possibly in the entire US) are hopeful and telling them both not to rule out an actual cure (BIL said, "A cure for an incurable cancer. Can they do that?"), but they are still both gutted. I have to call my mom to check in on how she's doing.
{{{{{JZ}}}}} I'm so sorry.
{{{JZ}}} I hope his doctors are right in their hope.
Have interviewed. Tired now. Supposed to have a 5-year goal by tomorrow morning at 10am. I can't begin to imagine what I could say about that and I don't feel like thinking about it.
Falafel and wine sounds excellent. I don't think I have falafel, but I could have something else and wine...
Oh, JZ, I'm so sorry. But Mt. Sinai is absolutely the best place he could be.
Oh, shoot, I also have a potluck tomorrow and have not thought of anything to bring. Very unprepared for the coming of Thursday over here.
