Really.

Things I did today despite my scratchy throat, runny nose, low-grade fever, and general feeling of malaise? Got up, ate breakfast, cleaned the bathroom, did a load of laundry, made my bed, chopped up a bunch of vegetables for spaghetti sauce, went to the National City PNC ATM machine, waaaaaaaitedd in a looooonnnnng, slooooooooowwww line at the post office, went to work and actually managed to muster enough brain power to translate some horribly convoluted requirements into a fairly clear specification. I think. I may change my mind on that, i.e., “what was I thinking?”

Things I did two days before xmas when I had the gastrointestinal virus from hell? Lay on the Green Couch and sucked ice chips. (I think I have used the word “lay” correctly there. If not, I’m sure Mrs. Commander will correct me.)

Okay. I wrote everything above this sentence this morning. Now, after a full day of work I am still ambulatory but I am draaaaaaagggginnnnng *ss. I didn’t take any sick time last year until the very last week of the year and I do NOT want to start out this year by taking sick time. I need to publish a big great gray green greasy trenormously long limpopo document tomorrow. Thank the gods it was basically finished weeks ago and all I need to do is review it one last time to check for any gotchas. But I still have to do it.

Here at the Landfill? There is a mess in every room and the Christmas tree is still up and I wouldn’t be surprised if there is rodent crap around again. I do not have the energy to deal with any of it.

That is all,
The Abominable Kayak Woman

P. S. I need Kleenex! I don’t usually need Kleenex so I don’t usually buy Kleenex!
