I wouldn't worry too much. You should feel happy. the SWAT team means they take you pretty seriously. Now, if you had really scared them, you wouldn't know until the bullet hit the back of your head.

Found a better cure for a stressful day (week) than Woodford Reserve: going on a midnight walk in the moonlight with Mr. Junely. Hooray for hugging and kissing and other violence!

You'd be hard-pressed to be worse at drinking than I am. half a can of beer, and I'm falling asleep. Two whole beers, and I'm in love with everybody in the room. Three beers, and I don't bother with the bed, I'll fall over just anywhere.

Quick, someone get jallenecs a couple of beers.

Drat. Too late.

I'm still waiting to hear on my application... I'm all twisty turny in mah guts.

It is sinking in, however, that the move of my job is quite fortuitous. We are literally moving around the corner - like 2 minutes away. We are literally around the corner from all sorts of convenient shops - I always go grocery/Walmart shopping at lunch. Glad we're not moving out into the middle of nowhere.

In other news,

I'm really loving my life right now. My new job is awesome. My editing job is awesome. I work near awesome places. Tonight I went out with my co-workers after training to an awesome bar and had awesome Belgian beer for 1/2 off.
.....

But yeah, overall: awesome.

aw, always glad to hear about the huggin'... I'm sorry you're having such a hard time.

Morning cantinas

Horrible winds and rain are going away, hurrah. We had yer actual snow last night, thankfully it didn't settle. North from us some folks have had six inches. I count myself fortunate.

Hang in there, B. I'm excited for you and hope it all works out.

Morning, I'm getting grumpy and very tempted to go on an idiot slaying spree. But I don't want to get a bad rep in SYW, so I'll blow off steam in here.

Ignore rant as you will.

I went on a moonlight walk in the snow once. My feet got cold.

But, I really, really, really didn't care.

I'm seriously considering investing in some Woodford Reserve. I'm not one for drinking, particularly hard liquor, but it's either my liver, or my sanity.

MOAR HUGS NEEDED HERE

CAMueller said:

Is it time for a Cantina ?

Click to expand...

I think so! In other (slightly depressing) news, it's raining cats and dogs here today. This calls for emergency tea!

Good news from the East Psycho. It's stopped raining here. Give it a couple of hours and you'll be dry - windswept, but dry.

ION, I just burnt my tongue on really fresh popcorn. Ow!

for everyone.

Time to write. Checks essential equipment.

Good idea Psycho. Free from Debio today. Anyone who wants one, just step up and smile, or *sniff* if that is the day you've had.

Emergency tea sounds good. I need to see what we've got. Nothing fresh unfortunately, but...We got barley tea. No caffeine, so I can drink as much as I like and still go to sleep anytime Iike. Yummers.

All sorts of world records falling in the world track cycling championships in Melbourne this morning. It's great viewing.



I have managed quite bit of typing too. Woo hoo.

I get to move my trailer from not so bright former trainers farm. Then I'll post her ad for the Cantina to see I wasnt kidding. Assuming it doesnt come down.

After that, buying soil and random tasks. I'll be working overtime today so who knows how much time I'll have.

Um, yeah. Owie is an understatement. I had my gallbladder removed. Much better.

jallenecs said:

just to add to the cantina stress calculator, my mother and I had a fairly nasty blow-out this afternoon. She had an episode, and took a swing at me, her first bout of real violence. Didn't hit me, so no worries there.

In response, I gave her the sharp side of my tongue for about two minutes. WRONG WRONG WRONG, I know. I lost my temper.

((HUGS))

I have taken a nap and feel less cranky. Someone please slap me for being a dick. I hate doing that.

I wonder if I can reprogram the auto-bartender to give out hugs. Hmm. Probably not very satisfying though.

Now stop messing about and start writing. I've done 200 words exactly this morning. (You'll notice I didn't mention how many I did yesterday, let's keep that quiet.)

Dear Overly Helpful Co-Worker,

Day 2 of coming to work whilst carrying Zee Plague is barely tolerable.

B****ing to everyone that walks by your desk about how awful you feel and how you're "only at 72%" is effing selfish.

Stay home and get better. Otherwise, Day 3 will see the tactical deployment of Attack Pinatas.

Smooches,
Everyone Else in This Damn Office.

ION, I went to the library. My local one has moved buildings, so they were having opening events today. I got a book, naturally, and a cake. iced and sans eyes. If you folks want one, you have to get there before five.

Time to go flip my veggie burgers.
