Jen, I feel like the dentist AND pleurisy is one thing too many.
I'm not evil again. Why does everyone think that?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Pleurisy sounds very un-fun, except of course for the Glass Menagerie "blue roses" reference. Probably much less entertaining if you're the one who has to actually experience it.
Pix & ND, still sending thoughts and prayers (hate that that now sounds like a snark rather than an actual hope and wish for strength & peace & better times ahead).
-t, that sounds like a crappy celebration. I hope the cocktails at least were good.
It's been too long since I've posted for a full meara, but I have been reading along and sending best wishes all this time.

Five whole days of work ahead, what?
Right? I am not used to this. Next week is 4 again and then I'm ruined for the rest of the year.

Agreed!
I hope the cocktails at least were good.
Honestly, not really. Me and my coworker who also tried them thought they could use a dash of Sprite or something. Pretty, though.
Had two meetings this morning and thought I was done but there's another one in 5 minutes. Whee!

Our wings are not tired
Finished teaching my first class of the quarter about 45 minutes ago. Camped out at a nearby Panera right now because I don't have it in my to get directly into rush out traffic for the 63 mile drive home that goes right across the middle of Los Angeles.
My spoon supply is low.
I'm also pretty much out of forks.

I've been known to do the same thing, ND, except at a Jersey Mike's sub shop - and that's only SD traffic, which is a pale imitation of LA traffic. May your/soup/sandwich/salad/whatev be tasty and may the traffic gods smile upon you when you do get out in it.

I tried the charged blood orange drink (whatever it’s called) and I didn’t notice the caffeination too much in my generally over caffeinated state, but I sure did not like the taste.
