Memorial Day Haze
May 31st, 2005

I wish it were still the weekend…the long, sultry, glorious weekend. A.S. and I took off to his parents’ country house, where it was all peace and quiet and the croaking vacuum frog. They have a beautiful view of the Intracoastal Waterway and a big yard full of oak trees and a long dock over […]

Damn
May 27th, 2005

No dice.
Doctor says I have to keep this vacuum thing on through Tuesday at the least and will look at it then and decide if it can come off. So I get to enjoy the croaking albatross for the entire holiday weekend. Joy.
Why is this such a big deal? It’s a FOOT! You know, if […]

Craptacular Conference Calling
May 26th, 2005

I’ve had conference calls ALL DAY. And while I held my teensy cell phone with my shoulder, I tied ribbons around the invitations to our second office grand opening, hand addressed them, addressed the second envelope, stamped and return addressed them… and licked them. All 100 of them. Son of a….
It was almost as […]

Bleh
May 26th, 2005

Got in a fight with my boss yesterday. That always sucks. But at least I stood up for myself (on one foot), although I’m not sure he gets that just because I’m a female doesn’t mean I have to do his busywork for him. I like my job, really I do, but I miss writing […]

Dying
May 24th, 2005

Architecture Student is speaking to our chicken in French. He is slicing it over spinach with fresh rasberry vinaigrette. Oh, you should see him. And hear him. I love this boy!

Hope!!! TRALALALALAALALAALALALALA!
May 24th, 2005

The doctor’s appointment went great. He did say another week of bedrest, but said I might be able to get the vacuum off by Friday (sweet holy Jebus). He also said I could go running within the month. A MONTH, PEOPLE! I was dreading this whole dissertation about having therapy and whatnot and taking it […]

Men Suck Ass
May 23rd, 2005

Sorry Bear, this wasn’t directed at you, particularly not after your lovely post avoiding the bj-offering trollop.
But A.S. called me to see how my day was going and said he was “suffering major internet withdrawal after a solid week of not checking” and was off to pay mass amounts of money to go online in […]

Blue Cross must die
May 23rd, 2005

Just heard from my home nurse that Blue Cross is claiming my foot injury is a pre-existing condition and they aren’t covering any of my medical expenses. Let’s see, I became eligible for their insurance on April 1, hurt myself April 16. Nope, not pre-existing.
(rolling up sleeves)
Somebody’s getting their ass kicked.
That aside, I’m a […]

How can I be tired…
May 22nd, 2005

…when I haven’t done ANYthing?
Here’s what I did today: woke up to my mom calling about 7:45 and ignored her phone call. Went back to sleep until 10, when A.S. had to leap straight out of bed and into his pants, etc. because he had his cousin’s christening in 30 minutes. Then I had a […]

The Accident (the official version)
May 22nd, 2005

(flashback sequence, April 16, a grisly tale)
A.S. wants to go surfing to help me get my mind off Woo, and because he just wants to go surfing every day. We head out after my friend’s baby shower, and he lends me his longboard, now named “The Blue Shark.” I eat it several times in the […]
