I read that on the news screen in the elevator today. Something like 25,000 people?
Good luck.

I’m ok right now. I had a boring day at school, as I had no classes and no work to do for my research project other than read. Today was Club Day at school, so I spent a good chunk of it being bored in the University Centre, sitting in front of a display for my club. I did spend about 45 minutes getting a refresher on the use of the Varian Gemini 200MHz NMR, so that was kind of cool.
I sprained by ankle on Tuesday, so basically everything I do is limited, or painful to walk to/do. It’s not too severe, but enough to bother me, so I’ve been sitting a lot.
I came home to find that my asshole housemate failed to clean up the most obvious of kitchen messes AGAIN. There was a pile of flour on the counter from when he made pancakes this morning, and crumbas all over, and pancake mix dripped all over the stove, and his damn girlfriend picked all the wax dripping off one of our candle holders so now it looks ugly and she left all the wax on the f*cking table…ARRGGHH!!!
So my SO had to calm me down when he came home shortly after, and then I sat and talked with him, and we were tired to we went to lie down and talk, which of course meant that I fell asleep. I woke up about 2 hours later to find that he’d made his AMAZING pasta sauce, and I had pasta for supper and it was SOOOO yummy, since I haven’t had any in a long time and I love pasta. I had milk with it. Milk and pasta are like heaven!
And now I have checked my email, I have checked fark.com, and I am here on the boards, relaxing, after a fairly stressful week. All in all, not too bad.
Thanks for asking! You just made it better!
Really, really good. I got 100% on my first bio test, I bought a new desk chair, I went to yoga class and I just got back from the breastologist - no new lumps. Dr. Hawk’s Week From Hell is finally over and I’m pretty sure The Offspring is the most beautiful, talented, loving and intelligent child on the planet. Thanks for asking.
{{{{{ hugs }}}}} to Kn*ckers, Euty, jinwicked, Soup_du_jour and anyone else feeling lonely, depressed and hug-deprived. Been there.
er… that is, if you want hugs from a relative stranger. Feel free to accept good thoughts if you’d prefer. (I always forget to ask…)
I am feeling a touch on the repressed, annoyed side… Work is really tough right now, enough to the point where i am considered a “retention risk” by my boss… probably because he is an arrogant jerk. Oh well. Money is getting hard to come by, but i will make it through…always do, somehow.
We used to have 6 people living in our house, but its down to three now… loneliness is setting in deeply…
Not bad, thanks. Full of salad, as I went to dinner with a friend, and before that stopped to see a cool black-and-white photo exhibit at a small gallery near the restaurant. Terrific Afghani war refugee photos, plus some of Vietnam. Neat stuff. Great sculpture and oils upstairs. Really nice little gallery.
Got to talking with the owner about art and some of the stuff that I do, and found out she’s interested in showing some of it (oil on canvas, chalk pastel, crayon, etc.). That was a nice surprise, as it wasn’t my intent when we went in there. Apparently the theme or whatever really appealed to her. She was a lovely woman and very sweet. Now I need to come up with some frames ASAP.
I’m warm enough, too as it’s about 75 in the apartment, and I managed to get rid of the headache I had before dinner. Also very happy with some stationery I’d ordered, which I picked up from the store today. I’m also psyched about my girlfriend coming to visit tomorrow from out of town for a girly-getaway trip we’re making to the beach this weekend.
Jin - sending warm thoughts your way.
It is late and I’m going to bed as soon as I finish padding my post count.
I’m procrastinating. I have a whole heap of homework to do, but all I can think about is buying stuff on my shiny new credit card. I just stole some of my sister’s muffin, and I wouldn’t mind one of my own right about now, especially since she’s only letting me eat the stump.
I’m pretty warm since it’s heading into Spring and I wouldn’t mind being a little bit cooler. I wouldn’t mind being less bored either - copyright law is not the most exciting thing I could be doing with my time. sigh
Fairly relaxed for a change.
Was supposed to work tonight but I couldn’t stand it anymore so I took the day off. Ran some errands, got my hair lopped off, played with my kitties and the little one fell asleep in my lap. Too cute.
Had a dinner of potstickers and chocolate chip cookies and am looking forward to tomorrow. Hopefully things won’t start to suck again until Monday night when I have to go back to that awful place.
It’s now Saturday. One of my teeth hurts, and I’m afraid I might have a cavity. Other than that, I’m happy/slightly fidgety/nervous.
I haven’t eaten breakfast yet, because I’m online, waiting anxiously for my maid of honour/best friend to email me her phone number. Then I have to figure out these phone card thingies- I wish she didn’t live so far away!
I’m going to three hours of bellydance class later, and I’ll do some Christmas shopping after, which will be weird, because I’m not usually this organized about it. However, the looming drea of Getting Married Three Days After Christmas means I won’t have time for my normal 1-week-before panic shopping.
I’m starting a new job on Tuesday, so that’s the faintly nervous part.
I should clean my room, and eat something healthy- otherwise I’ll eat too late, and the dance teacher will ask us to do undulations for the whole class time, and I’ll throw up.
Enh…not too bad, not too good. It’s Saturday so the kids are home, which means blaring stereos and TVs, not to mention incessant arguing. My nerve endings feel very close to my skin.
I should be dusting, but I just don’t feel like it. I figure I’ll do it Monday When I don’t have to do it around the children. Yeah, that’s the ticket.
If I don’t get off my ass soon and water my plants they are going to die.
Usually I’m pretty motivated but lately I’ve elevated procrastination to an art form.
Hungover.
Ugh.
Happy
No too shabby. I’ve got CMT on in the background, and I’ve no demands on my time today. Might go to the Renaissance Festival today.
Well, it’s mid-afternoon and I’m doing laundry while chatting with my husband and an old friend online. I’m tired - didn’t have a very restful night last night - too many weird dreams.
Tomorrow, if the weather’s nice, the Perfect Child[sup]TM[/sup] and I plan to go to the zoo. I haven’t been in a couple of years. If the weather’s crappy, we’ll go to a movie or something.
Thrilling, huh? I think I need a nap.
The excitement on this thread is almost too much to handle. I’d better go have lunch before it becomes a matter of ruining supper.

Hi Lsura!
(we should have an English accent smilie next )
Just finished running the School roleplaying club.
My lodger is cooking a sausage casserole (yummy).
CSI, followed by Law + Order in 40 minutes.
Life is good.
Ok, so it’s not the most thrilling thread in the world. I’m ok with that.
Oh, and glee? Only if it could say naughty everytime a thread opened with it in there.
Er, I pulled a muscle in my foot yesterday afternoon, and then I went out dancing all night. Not too bright. So today I’m sitting at home, surfing the Dope, watching movies on my computer, and trying not to walk if I can avoid it.
The dance itself was awesome beyond belief. Really.
Right now, I am hungry. I have crackers and stuff in the kitchen, but I really want a sandwich. However, getting a sandwich would mean I have to drag my busted foot down nine flights and a couple of blocks to find one. Think I’ll eat crackers.
Hey, I just found a box of mac n’ cheese! I am saved!
Feelin’ fine. However, all work and no play make me go something something…
