Don’t mind me, the head cold is still in full swing, and breathing through my nose is a mighty challenge.
Ended up going out last night - one of the big guy’s coworkers was having a combo Pampered Chef/Cookout/B-day party and decided that cruddy as I felt, I just didn’t feel like sitting around the house either.
Had a interesting twist on a margarita - frozen limeade, tequila and…beer. Pretty tasty, no real alcohol ‘bite’ to it, very smooth. Gotta get the proportions on that one.
Downside was that I couldn’t get more than a foot away from the box of kleenex all night.
Woke up this morning to discover that I’m out of cat food. ACK! The horror! (Well, *you* try explaining it to the cats…) Quick jaunt to the store and all is well again. And, because I was not too bright and left the one bag of dry food out, it already has a hole in it, courtesy of the furry ones.
Weird dream of the night: In Iraq, filming a documentary. I’m told that I have to make two versions - one that can be viewed in country, and one that is the real one. I refuse. Hand over the real version to the in country people, and the run like hell to get out of the country. Very, very strange…
Still debating heavily on the new system: Laptop/Desktop…Laptop/Desktop…Laptop/Desktop… Lather, rinse repeat. Gonna swing by the Gateway store today to look at the flat panel displays (if I get a desktop, gotta have the flat display. *Hate* the big honkin monitors and the desk isn’t big enough anyway) Wanna get out of the house anyway for a while.
I am really not looking forward to work this week. Closing is bad enough, add an icky cold on top and it’s going to suck. I need to be able to think quickly and clearly and not tell anyone to go to hell. That’s not going to be easy. Biggest preventive measure will just be avoiding the “Assistant Manager” I had to deal with on Friday. She pisses me off very quickly.
Well, off to enjoy what’s left of the weekend. Where did I put those tissues???
