Faith ,'End of Days'
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 went for a solid 3 years without getting a cold. Now I'm going into my third week of this cold. I thought I had beaten it back; turns out it just didn't like Chicago. Now I'm home and my sinuses are in revolt and I'm counting the minutes until I can take another slug of cough syrup.
So, bah. At least the dog walker is coming today so the Boss won't lose her mind with boredom.
I had a pretty awful respiratory thing in mid- late-November and it seemed to pass on its own but now I have weird throat phlegm and keep losing my voice. It's weird. I don't feel uncomfortable or sick, just this one thing.
I haven't been sick with a cold in three or four years either, and this year I have a weird lingering thing. Its driving me nuts!
My chair just got delivered to the office! I anticipate lots of swearing tonight after dinner, but hopefully I'll have it assembled and be seated comfortably before bedtime.
I also have a lingering cold. Ugh.
Eta I hope shrift is sleeping.
I was, but the earthquake woke me up. And then my shuttle never showed up, so I stood in the rain for half an hour and I'm probably going to be late to my class.
but the earthquake woke me up.
Words I have never spoken.
It was a "Wait, is that an earthquake?" and not a "JESUS CHRIST EARTHQUAKE."
That's good, at least!
This Christmas-on-the-weekend thing is really bumming me out. Like, when am I going to do anything to prepare? I just got a bee in my bonnet about making cretons (french-canadian pork spread) and maybe giving it to family members, but no. The weekend prior is my mother's big party, so that will take up that whole weekend. Oy vey. (Which I thought was a French expression as a child because I only heard it from my Memere!) I guess I can make it after Christmas and just keep it for me!
So I just realized that's something I can do after work if I want to. Problem solved!
Hah, yeah, I think I'm lying to myself about how much time is left until Christmas and what needs to be done before then. This weekend I'm hitting a couple craft markets and going to an ugly sweater party (sans sweater) and a holiday revue. So maybe that'll up the ante!
