Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

Glad to hear Murderbiscuit is keeping to his schedule.

He is a reliable alarm clock (in addition to being an amateur acupuncturist and all-purpose demonic entity).

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Askye - sorry about the cut in hours. Seems to be feast or famine there. They worked you to death over the holidays.

Yes an interview is good, just timing. I have no internet at home, so need to go to library. I am going this morning when they open up test that. Also, as you might imagine, I'm a bit frazzeled, two day til movers, so I am going to have to work extra hard to get myself calm and focused before.

Today: take old meds to police station drop, test run of Skype at library, hotel reservations for drive while at library, call pet sitter, pack, lunch with family, change for interview, interview, pack, gather all unwanted vintage or dress clothes, take clothes to dinner for theater volunteer, dinner out with friends, more pack.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If I pretend I don't know what you are talking about, Jesse, your post is delightfully absurd!

Ha! Fair.

Yeah, that is a lot, clearly! Can you take an hour before to unwind?

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

Good luck with the interview, msbelle!

One of our customers sent an email out to a billion of their vendors and people are Replying-All to it. Kinda want some popcorn

Speaking of popcorn, apparently my movie theater popcorn packets were delivered today, so I can properly use the machine I got for free from a neighbor! I wish I didn't have real dinners waiting for me in the fridge right now.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I hope the interview goes well, msbelle!

I'm sorry about the hours cut, askye.

Great news about Tim! I hope his recovery goes well.

Things are fairly quiet in my neck of the woods. I'm getting back into the gym groove and hoping that'll help my sleep schedule. (Which currently sucks—Christmas vacation and then the last weekend, which was a 3-day one for me, made my body think that going to bed at midnight and getting up at 9 am was perfectly doable in the long term. Sadly, that's off by about 3–4 hours).

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Love that my psych has moved to a new practice, and so my first visit is billed as a new patient. Which is more expensive.

Our wings are not tired.

Video interview~ma, which should be good because you come across very well in videos!

Dana, seems you could protest that and the office should change it.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Laura, I gather it was cold in your area last night: [link]

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

So, the earliest that we thought Tim could be released would be Friday (and even the nurses were skeptical about that yesterday.) But the surgeon saw him today and said he may be discharged tomorrow!
