Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I believe people just say stomach flu when they mean norovirus or whatever. It's not influenza.

Yes, there's no "stomach flu." Like Jesse said, it can be norovirus, or gastroenteritis, or some other nasty bug. Not actually flu, though. So unfortunately, no vaccine.

And I can't log into Travel Services. I guess it doesn't use the single sign on. I sent them an email requesting help so hopefully they'll get back to me tomorrow.

We have been struck by something akin to the "stomach flu." It has been... unfun. Both kids have now had it and M had something similar last weekend. I have a busy week of work when I'm supposed to be in classes all day every day, which of course means I will no doubt come down with it tomorrow.

To end on a happier note: all good birthday wishes to Maria & Pix!

I went to H&R Block to do the taxes, then I played with paying off the big bills to see what would be left to play with. I can do my big birthday shopping trip to Ikea tomorrow, and if I can beat down the brain Puritans enough, I can do a trip to Key West next February to visit the ocean and see cool shit. A couple of thousand dollars is not really going to make that big a deal in my longterm retirement plans, but a chance to hear the ocean again will do wonders.

Happy (belated?) birthdays, Maria and Pix!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Echoing what Shir said! Happy Birthdays Maria and Pix and ~ma to all.

I am finally pain free from the tooth thing - now I have to make an appointment for the crown. I used up all my calling people on the phone energy in the last two weeks, though, so I have to gear up. Why can't everything be online?
