oh, fuck football. This is the worst hobby ever.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
Aw, Dana.
My master bath has a large shower with a two-inch threshold and two grab bars, wide enough for a shower seat. The previous resident was my landlady's mom, so everything's geared toward someone with mobility limitations, aka "Why I have motorized blinds".

Argh, I've been madly emailing people to coordinate Thanksgiving at the ski club, and now the NWS is saying "heavy snow from Tuesday to Thursday, don't drive in the Western Sierra", and I'm all ARGH.
I guess if we stay home, it's fine, I ordered a turkey and could invite some friends over? Do I have friends enough for that, at the last minute? Sigh.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Ugh, I wish Mr. S would sleep later than 6:30 on the weekend....

Football turned out okay, except for the five years it took off my life.

I feel you Dana, I was watching UVA basketball today, and it certainly was not a cakewalk.

I went to sleep at like, 130? And woke up with a headache. And went back to bed after medication. And now it's 4pm and I haven't yet gotten out of bed. Damn.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Today was supposed to be my break after 3 days of pretty much solo parenting a sick child, but TCG woke up sick. So instead we all spent the morning at urgent care. I did everything I could to make ltc happy, movies, McDonald's, a trip to the pharmacy next door during the long wait, crayons and coloring books brought with us to keep her entertained. Nothing worked. She has been awful all day. She's finally asleep, and I am having an anxiety attack.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
By this point in the year, the AMA has usually sent me my contract renewal for the coming year (although they can't do that until after the freelance budget is approved). I haven't heard anything, so it's starting to give me the willies. I could use some contract renewal-ma (and some calm the hell down-ma).

Poor sj, ltc, and tcg. That sounds terrible.
Obviously you needed some sleep, meara
Much am to you, Steph. That would make me so anxious!
