I wasn’t feeling too hot at work yesterday afternoon, so I came home early and cat-napped part of the afternoon/evening. I was freezing most of the time, despite it being warm in my apartment and me wearing several layers of clothes. I finally warmed up when I went to bed and slept decently, but [...]

How many days?

October 23rd, 2007 · 2 Comments

How long can I go before I turn on the heat in my apartment? I love fall. So crispy.

Grrr. Arrrgh. Weep.
Last Wednesday, October 3rd, I took a framed item to The UPS Store in Coralville to have shipped to my Uncle Ron for his birthday which is tomorrow. And even that wasn’t easy. I went halfway through my lunch break intending to go to the Mailboxes, Etc. store that is downtown Iowa City [...]

note to self

Dear Self,
No matter how much you can’t get to sleep at night because your allergies are going crazy and making you sneeze while lying in bed, don’t take a double dose of your prescription allergy medicine if you need to work the next day. You won’t be sneezing anymore, but you’ll be completely dazed [...]

Brain is full

My head hurts. Too much thinking. Let’s see if can empty any of it out here.
Work is still all-consuming. I don’t mind it that much really because I’m learning new things and finally getting to do things I’ve wanted to do for years. It just sucks that I’ve got to cram what looks like about [...]

After the trauma of dropping Mac off at the vet, (she looked so pissed off at me) I was bad and went through the drive-thru at McDonald’s to get a bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit meal. I order, I pay, I get to the window to get my small bag of tasty bad-for-me bits [...]
