Check cat, and chair, for damage. If none, then immediately check surrounding area for cause of mach 5 cats. This could be important.

Oh, someone warn me if Fen comes in. Don't want to mess up again.

chair and cat appear undamaged - but cat is sitting there, looking like she meant to do that. Uh huh.

I know I'm tired. I seem to be having my own mini earthquakes. Not a good sign when I still have to leave for work in.... 40 minutes. Oh well. I have a query started. And I'm off on Wednesday this week, so....

ETA2: Nor is any other form of lobotomy.
No lobotomy?

Hmmmm....in that case, I tend to use the "Read Outloud to Myself" method. If it sounds strange, I edit. If it sounds awesome, then I get my hearing checked.

I'm right with you, Abby. It is not even 9 am and I've been up for well over 6 hours. I've written most of a query. I've had 3 cups of coffee.

Well done on the query and coffee! Without thinking this morning I put some peach Schnapps into my orange juice. Granted it's ALMOST 11, but I still feel like a dork drinking so early. But it tastes really good.

*shares her breakfast of black olives and apple muffin tops*

Did you know they make muffins without the muffin part? These are so good!

Co-workers are talking about purchasing a deal on botox. Like a group buying deal. On poison to stop wrinkles.

That's what I thought, too. If you're worried about signs of aging at 26, you have a life of worry ahead.

Jump right in, the water's fine! Just be careful if you're jumping into the dong garden.


In other news, I made all the phone calls I needed to make. This is an achievement, as I hate-to-almost-phobic-levels making phone calls to folks I don't know.

This week, I feel as though my life is finally back on track. Still a lot to do, but man... I think my previous job had been sucking the soul out of me. It's the first time in a while I feel like I have energy and I'm looking forward to getting out of bed in the morning and getting cracking on things. I can't wait to start the new job next week. I'm getting stuff *done*.

I guess I had a touch of situational depression. Hadn't noticed before now... but that would explain a lot of things.
