Friday afternoon randoms

Having a cold makes your day feel like it's twice as long as it should be.

Re: Friday afternoon randoms

  • I would normally agree but I don't want to jinx myself since I'm mostly healthy right now. 

    Anyone use or know anyone that uses home automation in anyway? 

  • Thanks for thinking of me with the groupon, Molly.  And you don't suck for not sending it--it would have been ridiculous if three people had sent it to me Stick out tongue  And, I'm super predictable, obviously.

    I hope you feel better soon.  This is not a good weekend to feel sick.

    I know, what a bummer. 

  • Diana, do you like corn mazes!?  Is that what everyone's sending you?  Because that's the Groupon that I got today.  Stick out tongue

    Molly, I know exactly what you mean about the day going slower when you're sick.  Last Friday I came to work at 8:30.  After what seemed like hours had passed, I looked at the clock at it was 9:30.  I wanted to cry.  I gave up and went home shortly there after.

    My desk looks like my file cabinets vomited all over it.  I would like to rectify that by the end of the day today.  I don't have much time left.

    HA!  That crossed my mind too.

  • This week helped me realize something.  I am not an E anymore.  I don't even belong on in the middle.  I am now (just a teeny bit) on the I side of Extrovert vs. Introvert.

    I've had meetings and visits with a lot of people over the past few days.  I'm exhausted.  Happy, but exhausted.

    Being sick is a such a drag.  Why can't we save it for when we're dead?  Haha.

    Yep, it's a restaurant.  I like to eat.

    One of the weird side effects of school is that I don't each much during the week.  It's just such a hassle to stop studying to eat.  So I usually cook and eat like crazy all weekend long.

    I wish work gave me that side effect.

    Yeah, I hate it when girls say crap like "I'm too busy to eat" or "eating is such a bother."  It makes me want to punch them.  I give you all permission to *virtually* punch me.  The fun thing is that I've lost 5 or 6 pounds since starting.  Most expensive diet plan ever.

    I don't want to punch you, but your statement makes me hope for you finding balance soon.  I know that when people are consumed by a life change, they stop caring for themselves for a while.  I know law school is probably all encompassing, but dude... be well.

    This week was worse than usual, but normally I do eat multiple times everyday.  It's just not always a lot of calories or completely balanced (one meal usually consists of a cup of noodles).  Most days I get in at least 1200 calories, so no need to worry.  Also, I've been working out at last 5 days per week, so that's contributing to the weight loss too (and the taking care of myself part).

    I was sad to discovered I crossed over to the I side when our buddy J came to do the Myers Briggs test for us last year.

    I bought that one too.  It's fairly close to where we live (less than 10 minutes).  DH and I are going tommorrow.
