'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Ugh! I had another round of Tummy Miseries complete with sweating and pounding heart last night with a bonus -- an actually ridiculous phase where suddenly I was so cold! It was 66F in my bedroom, I had plenty of blankets and I was all but shivering.

Bodies are weird, yo.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Epic, it will - cumulative - be four hours on branding. Two one-hour webinars last week (which had about five minutes, total, of actual usable content - the rest was blather about their methodology and incomprehensible charts) and a two-hour meeting tomorrow. They were scheduled for two 90-minute webinars last week, but they didn't get as many questions as they expected (and neglected to answer one that I'd have liked an answer to). Meanwhile, several people sat there tweeting or doing something (ordering lunch, maybe) on their phones. argh

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Ugh, even more sympathies. We've had tremendous amounts of Branding BS of late, but nothing like that sheer volume at once. Hope that pizza is frigging amazing!

Ugh, Theo, my sympathies and empathies. Bodies, man.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Sigh, when I went to pick up Mr. S one of the teachers said he had been hitting and spitting on her all day. Also, he took off and headed for the front door as soon as he saw me. This is a different place than he was during the school year, and he just started yesterday. Hope he settles down soon...

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

Aw, Mr. S. I know change is hard, but you can adjust, kid, I believe in you!

Yikes, Theo! That sounds miserable. I find that whole fever-with-chills experience particularly messed up. I hope it's gone for good.

Happy happy Epic!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Not from where I'm sitting.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Oh, Sheryl. When ltc's teacher left in the middle of the school year, she lashed out for a few weeks. I hope Mr S adjusts quicker.

I hope so too. We have to meet with the Academy people tomorrow before he can go back. (We were able to get someone to stay with Mr. S tomorrow.)
