1. I woke up really early today and I have no energy.

2. I've decided to stop going to the Kabbalah Center because it's just useless and it's too much of a scene.

3. Maybe this would be a good day to do some cleaning. But I doubt it.

4. Oh I know! I have to finish working on a syllabus for my class...the most detestable task ever.

1. I'm procrastinating today.

2. I have a meeting in an hour, and I'm not fully prepared for it.

3. I ate a big lunch, so I'll probably be real sleepy in this meeting.

4. I guess I'll take something loaded with caffeine to the meeting with me.

5. Well playtime is just about over for a while.

1. I woke up early after going to sleep after 2am. All I can think about is the house, the engagement, the wedding, the chaos...ack!

2. The final walk-thru for my house starts at 3pm today after a meeting with the counter top people.

3. I had a custom countertop put in the kitchen that looks warped and very uneven. In fact, for an $800 countertop, it sucks rotten eggs. I do not know the outcome of that situation, but it doesn't bode well for the countertop people.

4. My dad and brother come in town tomorrow (yay!). The close is set for 11am in the morning.

5. My mom has been here since Sunday. She and I went shopping for blinds and curtains yesterday. It was fun and I got everything I needed and only spent half of what I budgeted (even better!).

6. If anyone needs any Mary Kay, I am ordering tomorrow night! Email me and I can send you the URL to my secured website!

3. This is me right now: I'm getting very frazzled trying to finish up everything.

4. Still haven't gone to get manicure and pedicure. They close at 7:00 so I should make it there before then.

5. I am so looking forward to eating lobster, lobster, lobster, lobster and more lobster!!!!!

6. Can you tell I'm excited about eating lobster?
There are very few places that prepare it just right down here.

1. For Hermione, I will do 10.....Hellooooo everyone, it's Amazing Race and Big Brother night WHOO HOOO.

2. I took the secretary out for lunch today (I had broccoli chicken salad and she had chicken salad with grapes--YUM) and we ran errands at the bank and walmart, where I bought ivory cheap curtains for the bathroom and kitchen cause I'm taking the good ones with me!

3. I paid my $400 gas bill TWICE....Egads! Guess I'm getting a refund on that one!

4. Spent almost all day hooking up and unhooking utilities. SHEESH! Verizon gets the prize for the slowest most inefficient service. AmernCIPS gets the prize for having a real person answer and having speedy service.

5. I said goodbye to my cleaning lady today. I had to leave before we both got too teary. DANG, I will miss her. I will miss my secretary, too! They are good friends as well as fulfilling their jobs.

6. It is now 4:00 and I am JUST NOW starting to pack/clean my office. I'm not going to make it by 1 pm tomorrow when I leave for a conference. EGADS!

7. I'm really pumped that Spy is engaged!!! And we have several others getting married on the board. What wonderful happiness.

8. All my student workers bailed out today. BLECH! Hope they show up tomorrow!

9. I can't WAIT to get to Carbondale! Countdown to moving van: 6 days.

10. I am going to a "present research papers" conference with one of my former students on Wed. We will be searching for a TV on Thursday for BB. I will miss it on Saturday cause we will be on the road back!

BIG HUGS to EVERYONE!

Marj, here is how we met...

1. I was introduced to Flyboy by his stepmother. She was a student in the program who graduated this past year.

2. She was one of the students who came to my house to help me unpack the UHaul last July. She said she instantly wanted me to meet her stepson and couldn't shake the feeling. She had never played match maker, and it freaked her out that she was considering it when I was her instructor, so she sat on it for a couple of months and then finally couldn't stand it anymore and came to talk to me about it.

3. Because it was a bit of a conflict of interest to simply set us up, she decided to plan a big program-wide Halloween party where all faculty, staff, students, and family would be invited. My colleagues knew and approved - though they teased me mercilessly. :-)

4. Conveniently, Flyboy came to that event and we met - that was November 1st last year. We went out the next night and whenever he was in town over the next few months.

5. We both continued to date other people until the first of June when we realized how much we cared for one another. I think it is one of those situations where...when you know, you know and it all makes sense. Kinda like putting on the correct prescription of eye glasses. It just all seems clear whereas before everything was kinda fuzzy.

So, there ya go! The "Facts Version"

1. Only 36 minutes until I leave this Hell on Earth.

2. I am really hungry, I didn't bring money or lunch, so I had a piece of gum.

3. I hate being an intern. If you want to call it that.

4. It is so hot outside, it feels like I am going to melt.

5. I really don't feel like driving right now, these idiots in this city should have not gotten their licenses. Can you tell I am crabby today?

ETA 6. Um, I was too late....Oh, I have a stupid calculus final today...wish me luck!

1. Good luck Monkeyboy!

2. I love hearing love stories

3. We are going on vacation starting this weekend

4. Seems everyone knows, but that's okay because we have great neighbors

5. We have a lifelong friend who will be visiting my home everyday, looking after my plants, lawn, mail, car and feeding Jujukitty

6. Our 25 year long neighbor will be feeding Buddy every day and watching the house

7. Our other two neighbors, one for 25 years and one for 2 years will be keeping an eye on the house, too! Our neighborhood is so diverse that will mean a 24 hour watch. We are blessed.

The following facts will be an outline of the major things I've done in the past week:

1. I flew to Las Vegas and had four fantastic days with over 30 TVCHers. I'm one of the lucky ones who got to see Ginger on Friday.

2. When I left Vegas, I had a 4-hour delay (for 6 tortuous hours I sat in that smoky noisy airport with nothing but Taco Bell and Starbucks in my terminal -- and ever since I saw "Super Size Me" I refuse to eat fast food, so I was starving).

3. After getting back to HOT Vancouver (where we have no A/C -- have I ever mentioned that? LOL), I worked a full day the next day, went to the gym, and unpacked my casual clothes in my suitcase and re-packed with my work and "event" clothes. The next morning at 7AM I was on a flight back south to L.A. (after getting to the airport at 5 to clear Customs and security)

4. I was picked up at LAX by a black stretch SUV. L.A. is weird. Sure, I needed all that room. NOT! I showed up at the hotel I THOUGHT I was staying at (Century Plaza) to find out they didn't have a reservation for me. After calling my assistant, I found out I was actually at the St. Regis -- which is a very nice hotel, I must say. Turned out to be a pleasant surprise.

5. I went to numerous work events over the next few days, which involved (among other things): spending time with one of the top Egyptologists in the world; rewriting a press release whose contents I only guessed at, but finding out later I was right on the money; eating a huge prime rib dinner at Lawry's; having a fabulous spicy tuna sushi roll (in 5 minutes) at the Mystique Spa; watching Danny Glover get out of a REALLY beat up late-model blue and rust (real rust) Toyota; watching Parker Posey french kiss her small white dog; admiring how tall Eric Stromer is; not getting any inside info about Amazing Race from Phil Keoghan.

6. I rode four roller coasters, including the Stratosphere in Vegas with Lancecrossfire earlier in the week.

7. I drove to Whistler ski resort and back in one afternoon, and worked in a visit to an old friend along the way.

8. I endured a power outage in our building yesterday from 8AM to 2PM -- which in effect put me out of commission work-wise for an entire business day. Believe me, I paid for it today. And tomorrow it'll be out from 8-11AM.

(There are lots more things I did this week, including getting my dog groomed, and cooking a fabulous puttanesca sauce tonight, but I must stop at 8!)

01. Punk is resting, but seems to have broken one of his lower pointed canine teeth--probably from when he was chewing the bars at the emergency vets to get out.

02. In addition to everything else going on, I had a doctor's appointment this AM; he wasn't happy that I was late on seeing him (it's supposed to be every 28-30 days, and I was 19 days late, since I should have seen him on 7/8).

03. I told him our check hadn't come in--let alone cleared; next month, I am under orders to call 2-4 days before the appointment if the check hadn't come in, and we'll "deal with it from there."

04. He took me off the oxycotin, since I told him it really wasn't helping.

05. He asked how my methadone was working, and I told him fairly well, but some days, I really needed to take an extra pill; he decided since I was going to be off the oxycotin, to double my methadone.

05. He also pointed out that I looked horrible (gee thanks, doc!); and asked how my sleeping was.

06. I explained about the last two nights, and why I hadn't done well with that; but that, in general, I was getting about 2-3 hours a night, which is typical for fibro patients.

07. So, he said we'd start with Restoril (since it can be a generic) unless or until I had health insurance for the expensive stuff.

08. I asked him what we do if the methadone eventually doesn't work, his reply: we will keep adjusting the methadone until we keep the pain eliminated. (He is really dedicated to eliminating pain. I like that in a doc.)

09. The pharmacist was amused: he couldn't read the prescription and said the doc's handwriting was the absolute worst he had even seen.

1. I slept like crap again last night. I'm noticing a pattern. It seems to be happening on the days I work out. Sunday and Monday I did not work out and I slept like a baby. Yesterday I worked out and couldn't sleep. I am hypothesizing that I am working out too late in the evening and my blood is still pumping when I lay down and try to sleep. My workouts are always super intense so maybe I need more time to wind down.

2. I was manic yesterday! Got bipolarity?

3. Sometimes I think I share too much information on the board about myself that is best left private. Then I think of what I have been through, such as the abusive marriage and the alcoholism, and I think that if there is one person out there that I can help by sharing, then it is okay. Especially in my marriage, I could have used a place like this. When I was getting sober, I had AA, but when I was trapped in that marriage, I felt so alone.

4. Lkunkel, I hope the higher dosage of methadone helps. And I am glad Punk seems to be okay.

5. Monkeyboy, it was great to see you post and I hope the internship improves!

6. It will be another slow day in summer school. I have worked summer school for 4 years in a row and this is the slowest schedule I have ever had.

7. I'm not really complaining. It's kind of nice.

8. Yankee, I LOVE roller coasters. The Volcano at Kings Dominion and the Loch Ness Monster at Busch Gardens are my favorites. Whooo! Blood rush to the head!!

9. Corey was possibly my least favorite comic on LCS, but on the wild card show last night, he cracked me up.

10. Song in my head-- Sex and Candy

I smell sex and candy here
Who's that lounging in my chair
Who's that casting devious stares
In my direction
Mama this surely is a dream
Mama this surely is a dream
Yeah mama this must be my dream

1. Well, I slept so well that I slept through getting the garbage out. DRATS! And I'm leaving at 1pm for a conference REALLY close to the Amish, which will only partially make up for missing Amish in the City tonight. LOVED Amazing Race last night and was very glad that Nakomis used her veto....maybe they will let Natalie/Adria vote in case of tie. LOVE the idea that the other one could go in. DOWN with the 4-Horsemen!

And that's all I know! Taking the cable out in about an hour, so y'all will have to keep me updated on shows for the next 8 days. I'll be back on in the new place next Thursday.

COUNTDOWN to moving van: 5 days (and I'm going to be gone for 3 1/2 of them!)
