I found this through some research at work.

• Work: Still in the Web Department SEO job. They had an interview last week. There were actually three candidates and one stepped out.
• SCA: Currently broken, so no fighty. I haz pell nao! Did slow pell work with right arm. Lost a lot of muscle in that shoulder... it got tired just aiming the sword....
• Health: Roommates managed to give me evil SoCal DeathGerm. *glares meaningfully at roommates* Missed War of the Trees because I was flat on my back wheezing through snot. Actually went to the doc and received real honest-to-goodness Sudafed. Spent the last three days mostly doused with NyQuil, starting at 7pm, waking once around midnight or so, taking another dose of NyQuil, and passing out til 7 or 8 am.
• Neti Pot: is *wierd*... We're pouring salty warm water through our noses.... it doesn't hurt, it's just.... reminds me of a phrase from David Palmer's Emergence: "Not painful, really, just...ew." Character was talking about removing a catheter. 
• Mundane Life: Debating.... been invited to a Women's Retreat, in Mexico! Problem is? It's the same weekend as September Crown, and Crown's in Terra Pomaria...

• Work: Still in the Web Department SEO job. Talked to company ownership. Did not burst into tears (but was close). Ownership says 3-4 weeks to get last two candidates through second interviews and make choices, hang in there. I have actually SEEN the new floorplan for the cubicles in the Marketing department and it includes Me. YAYNESS.
• SCA: Currently broken, so no fighty. This is majorly depressing. I did not realize how much endorphins that was pumping through my system on a regular basis. Battling serious depression with only gym workouts. Not fun. But doing therapy on shoulder, eating ibuprofen, icing, stretching and glucosamine. May not be in repair for either Wars. This sucks.
• Car: Just finished minor repairs (headlamp) with major costs. $400 for replacing the headlamp assembly unit. Because Volvo designed the car so you have to take the front bumper off first... I'm like WTF, Volvo? Clearly you do NOT have trucks flinging gravel down your roads....
• Mundane Life: Currently exploring this "dating" thing. They are muggles, but hey. Gotta start somewhere, right? I've gone through so many changes in the past year and a half that I'm a significantly (albeit subtly) different person. So, seeing how this new person reacts.... very interesting!

...or, rather, when I wake on Thursday morning, April 16, 2009, it will have been 10 years since Daddy died.

Wierd -- sometimes it feels like centuries; sometimes... yesterday.

oh fabulous feline of the North (and fellow Bujoldian)katanubis !!!
