Rebo and beebs: Well, there’s quite a bit of TMI going on. But also, our relationship has just gotten really strange lately. In a good way, I guess. He’s talking about having babies together someday before I’m 40. This subject hasn’t come up since something like last February. I’m just going to let it go, though, because my general opinion on babies has been: Nice for others, but not for me and that’s partly due to being bipolar. If I were to have a kid, several things would happen. 1. I’d have to go off of my meds for 9 months. :eek: 2. These sorts of mental illnesses are hereditary and I wouldn’t want to pass on my nightmare-life to someone else. There are other reasons, too, but those are the big ones. And I’m really kind of rambling here, anyways, but suffice it to say it’s a strange direction to be heading after those kinds of ideas laying dormant for so long.
[change of subject] I’m hungry. Time to look for leftovers. [/cos]
Ever had this weird feeling for days at a time, when you just knew something bad was going to happen?
I’ve been feeling that for days, and today, when I opened my mail, I received some really confusing and bad news. I don’t really want to get into the details, but I am hoping against hope I can get this squared away. Suffice it to say, I think they’re totally wrong, but I sense a battle.
I have to try and deal with folks who sent me this piece of news tomorrow. I tried calling as soon as I read the letter, but they only work 8:00 to 5:00 Eastern Time. :mad:
I am sitting here with absolutely no appetite, but I need to cook dinner for the family.
I also received a summons for two weeks of jury duty starting on the 19th of February. Bah! They ALWAYS call on me. Every two years, like clockwork, I receive a summons. I need to bring the summons in to my boss tomorrow. She probably won’t be overly pleased, but I’ve already deferred it once.
Additionally, it looks like I’ll be in San Antonio, Texas March 16th through the 22nd. I have to attend an advanced course on a data mining system I use. When I return, I have to teach what I learned. I was confirmed for a class slot today and I’ve already made my hotel reservations. I’ll start working on the TDY orders later next month. Yippee…not. :rolleyes:
MBG, I hope your poor kitty is doing better. Yours too, ems.
For the record: Complicated Roomate’s half brother is an idiot and bastard of the first order. Sadly, it’s probably going to get him killed. No, strike that. Definitely going to get him killed. People don’t survive long in jail for what he’s done.
I am NOT pleased with how much time we are spending at work lately on this boundary thing. Four of us are literally locked into a conference room together for entire half-days at a time. Grr.
Kitties are all doing MUCH better today. Scarlett’s urine and blood say she has no real kidney issues - some levels are high, but they seem to just be that way, her kidneys aren’t working overtime or anything like that. Her attitude is BACK in a big way. She’s sitting here like Queen Kong on the back of the recliner swatting at Bear as he darts up and down st her. Marty and Cuervo are hardly sneezing at all, everyone’s eating like…well like cats.
The Kid is home for the weekend, she’s just chattering away here while she reads her accumulated mail I’m nodding at appropriate times and wondering how rude I’d be if I got up and got a beer.
Home at a reasonable hour and Libby was waiting for me at the utility room door. Tail not quite wiggling like normal but definitely more perky than the past couple of days. Hopefully we should get the blood test results back tomorrow. She came and jumped up on my lap when Iwas on the phone earlier she hasn’t had the energy for the past couple of days. Now she is taking a nap in her usual spot on the couch.
I am exhausted from this week. Thank god tomorrow is Friday. I have no money so this weekend will involve not much at all. Sort out my wardrobes and complete the rest of the appraisals that I have to do that I haven’t had time for this week. I may venture to the movies with the change down the back of my couch
Home and hurting(arthritis). Evil assistant “hurt” her back, but won’t go to the doc to get released back to work. My other assistant’s last day is tomorrow.
Welcome back, Biorosie! Has Teh Sick finally been beaten into submission and packed his bags?
Another quick drive-by today, had a boring meeting with Tin Knickers about her Sainted Project and then the four urgent jobs she needs me to do before I do this week’s project work (all in one day) on top of all the other little things she wanted done…and it’s all my fault for having two days off at the beginning of the week.
Ho hum. But it’s Burns Night so later there will be me, 'im indoors, haggis, neeps and tatties!
PS: What’s the MMP reservation list look like. My oddly obsessive self has thought of a new project which will surely take up way too much of my time again.
Good Firday morning all! Hey bbs2k, those lolcats pics are pretty good, especially the one with the actual cake.
I’ve got to share this–I was watching the local morning news today and someone in graphics had Firday (as in Happy Firday) up in the feed that runs across the bottom of the screen. I got a big kick out of that! (It was channel 4 in DC, btw, just before 6 AM.)
Up and caffeinating and running late … again! It’s 23 degrees F outside and the wind is blowing, so the wind chill is in the teens–don’t really want to go out there in that cold!
Well, I do have to get to work; at least it -is- Friday. Or Firday, according to NBC4.
Herbs that can mean only one thing. A Mumper works for NBC4.
Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’ here on a coooooooold mornin’! BRRRRRRRRR!!!
And yes it’s Firday. That means I work til only five today. I’m plannin’ on goin’ in for two-three hours tomorrow to wrap up some stuff for the week. It’s been a busy week and doin’ that will have everything all neat and orderly and done, so I don’t mind. Besides, I get extra money for it. That’s always a good thing.
Ok, time for some more caffiene, brekkie foragin’ and purtification for work.
Morning everyone. It’s -7 here, and now that the kids have gone to school, I’m seriously thinking about taking a nap.
Can I?
I probably won’t though.
I’m off to go see what’s new with the rest of the board.
I need Mindfield! Or someone. I added some pics to my Screensaver function and now I cannot delete them (?). There is no button that says “delete” or “edit”–well, the edit function just lets me change things about the pics.
I know I have done this before. (I wish computer stuff stayed in my head, but it. just. doesn’t.) Anyone have any clue on how to dump pics off a screensaver? I’ve tried dragging it to Trash-no good. I’m on a Macbook. Danke.
Off to be tested on codes for children. Not the best way to spend a day (I really don’t like this. No idea why. Most stuff in medicine/nursing I’m fine with–including most gross stuff. Just don’t like kids dying. You’d think that learning how to save them would empower me or help out in some way. Nope–just want it all to go away. Freud would have a field day.)
It’s cold out again. Why is that? Oh, yeah-it’s January. A good day wish to all.
