Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I woke up early to do some shoveling, and it is BRUTAL. It looks like nice fluffy snow, but underneath is several inches of frozen slush. Yikes. I really half-assed it, but at least my neighbor is out with the snowblower now.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

-t isn't anywhere near the Oroville Dam evacuation area, right?

Head is super frazzled today. Not sure why (I am guessing finances, I maxed out my cards, oops) but am trying to stay on task and do one task for work, then one task for me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am super-grump because of Monday, so I'm further irritating myself by watching Love It or List It. The husband in this couple is a "skateboarding professor." I don't know if that means he teaches skateboarding, or if he is a professor who skateboards.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Did you see the tree house one? I went to high school with one half of the couple, but I haven't had a chance to view it.

I hate everything. Okay, maybe not the shuttle driver who gave me a rose this morning.

Why is someone from my university trying to contact me about being in a documentary?

The one thing the skateboarding professor really wants is a skate park in his backyard.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

My doctor's office, bless them forever, now has a service where you can get an online evaluation for 8 or 10 common (but also simple to treat) conditions/illnesses. Sinus infection is among them, which I am SUPER grateful for, because it's been over 2 weeks since I got a cold, and I have all kinds of sinus and ear pain and other nasty symptoms of a sinus infection.

There's a detailed questionnaire you have to fill out, including spaces for free text, and as long as you submit the form by noon, they get back to you by 3:00. I am now awaiting a response and antibiotics, and I never had to leave the house. Well, I guess I'll have to leave to go pick up the antibiotics. But that's okay.

What a great service, Steph. I still miss our super awesome dr in NYC that would email with patients.

So one of my CCs I am over the limit on. It just kept letting me spend. NOT HELPFUL. I cannot even use my points to pay down the balance because I am so far over the balance. Grrr.

So I paid some today, but not all I need to. Then I reduced the monthly amount going to investment pot (for new car and vacations) and so when I get paid end of this week, I can make another payment. This is ridiculous levels of bad self-control on my part.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

-t isn't anywhere near the Oroville Dam evacuation area, right?

No, that's an hour or two north of me. Thanks for the concern! I am in a flood zone, which I still think is kind of hilarious in a hysterical way, but that particular threat shouldn't immediately affect me.

That is terrific, Tep! Kaiser now offers video dr appts that you do from home, I need to remember that next time I don't want to make an appointment b/c getting dressed and driving is too much trouble when I am sick.
