P.U.!


So today, I really miss K. I didn't get to have lunch with her yesterday (and probably most days from now on) because of the new lunch schedule here at my program. It's part of our new and improved way of doing things. It's better than before, but considering that it's still under Dutch Boy's thumb, it'll never be good.


Anyway, today I brought a stinky lunch and there was no one to complain about it. *Sigh* I wonder what happened to K? She must have fallen off the face of the earth into the transdimensional vortex behind her desk. The one that Dutch Boy came out of. If there was only a way to contact her, some sort of communication device...if only. I'm gonna have to go in after her like I do her pens and whatever else she happens to drop back there...


Speaking of transdimensional occurences, tomorrow is Cornyation!!!! I'm really excited! I get to go with K and H tomorrow for my bday! Thanks girls, you remembered! How awesome is that? But, I'm kinda bummed that I can't drink, of all the times to be on an antidepressant *muaw muaw*. Oh well, I'll be drunk on laughter, Bitches! And, I won't be anywhere near that volleyball game...even better. I'd rather dodge gaudy wigs and caddy jokes than a speeding volleyball any day. And then, there's the drag queens. parum pum.


Well, I guess I better go after K. She'll be pissed if she misses Cornyation and then I'll have to hear about it at lunch.

Chag Sameach!

So, I did it! I had my first seder that I thought I'd never pull off. We had a total blast and I'm sure next year will be even nicer since I'll have some experience to draw from. Here's everyone having a great time:


I was so nervous that I acutally didn't think to take pictures until near the end of the seder. I didn't get to get a picture of Helen, my friend Martha's daughter, who found the Afikomen. At the begnning of the seder, a piece of the Matzo is hidden and one of the kids has to find it and they get a price. Helen got a cute towel that's compacted down to the size of a card and when you put it in water it expands into the full size...very cool.

We had tons of food and soooo much wine. Almost everyone was there and it felt great to enjoy the day with my friends. Of course, since then I'm dying for a piece of leavened bread but that's another blog. Here's the rest of the pictures. I wish I had taken more, something for me to remember next year.

The last two pictures were taken after everyone had left. I sat down on the sofa that we'd moved into the spare bedroom to make room in the living room and the view was nice. I thought it was a perfect picture of how I felt. I was spent and tired but I felt warm and lit up inside :)

You may want to turn away...


I feel like shit and I think that this fact will be a recurring theme in subsequent posts for some time. So...hang in there or get the fuck out. Honestly, I have no reason to be in such a bad mood; I just am. Where better to express it than on my blog? Be warned.
