Posts: 887 10/31/05 02:10	I work on sundays and today I was feeling particularly miserable and I had cramps (and it was worse than usual, I was nauseated and kinda feverish too, I was starting to worry, actually). I thought it was going to be dreadful, yet somehow it didn't. My co-workers were really nice, and I was able to get all the post serving work done quickly, and because they're going to spray for bugs, we didn't have to do any resetting and some other chores. And then my boss was all happy with how I was working, and I wasn't the last person out the door, and wow. Work didn't suck. Amazing. Oh, and I actually did something fun last night. I feel so accomplished! _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I'm hoping today will behave, really.

Posts: 647 11/01/05 16:25 Gothamite	I took my 3-year-old daughter trick-or-treating last night; her first such outing. She wore an off-the-rack winged-unicorn costume, and looked pretty goshdarned cute in it if I do say so myself. It was pouring down rain, but I got an umbrella and held it over her while we cruised the nieghborhood, so even while I got soaked she stayed relatively dry. At roughly half the houses, instead of saying "Twick or tweat!" she just held up her bag and said hopefully, "Candy?" Why is this under Small Victories? Because (a) she had fun even though it was pouring down rain, (b) with a bit of prompting she always said "Thank you" for every treat, and (c) she DIDN'T gorge herself sick on candy when we finally returned home! Two lollipops and a hot bath, and she was off to bed without a complaint! My kid's so good sometimes it's astonishing... Kimberly T. "Everyone who believes in telekinesis, raise my hand!"

So this year was in serious danger of being the Last Hurrah. We ran out of candy. Twice! Next year we need to be better prepared to terrify the SNOT out of one pair of young teen boys who came back three times and took double handfuls of candy each time. I feel that on the second trip, they owe us. Also next year, we might put the candy in a vat full of glow-in-the-dark jelly, so their little hands will give them away. But we must've had fifty kids! :D Jarissa knight of the Cat-Tails Discussion Roundtable general all-purpose lurker For Katie

Posts: 6453 11/06/05 17:50 Feline Fatale	That ebay purchase from mid-October came afterall. Badly delayed, as int'l mail is won't to do. Doesn't make the seller's attitude any better, but still, got my burner. And, I made a decision to dump this upholsterer who's been one problem after another for months. HUGE weight off my shoulders. Now I'm just going to get someone COMPETENT who I can COMMUNICATE WITH, through a decorator referal. Woot.

Also, I've been able to start working out and have dropped 6 pounds in a week (It's amazing what cutting back on junk food will do....still eating the same amount! ) Kendra ********* You have the right to remain silent, so shut the f--- up!

Posts: 608 11/10/05 17:08 The Cadaver	I did a presentation earlier that's been hanging over my head for ages now, and it actually went pretty well! The notoriously hard-ass seminar leader actually quite liked it! I'm falling ill with something - probably my body allowing itself to shut down after the tension of getting the sodding presentation written - and I've got an essay to write before illness hits me too hard, but I don't care. I'm going home this weekend, and the presentation went fairly well. That my friends is a small victory.

Still waiting on any number of other items, but hey, gotta look on the bright side in this world. The guy at the mailbox place is very nice, knows comics and everything.

Make brine.... well, gotta take a break at some point but so far, so good. Why so much? Because it's for a party at a soundstage and I have no idea how many people work there but half of them are stage technicians which is a technical theatre term for locusts*.

Posts: 3928 11/30/05 16:54 Gothamite	Well, the rant would be that I got stuck in an elevator yesterday. The victory is that (obviously) I got out.

Posts: 805 12/10/05 14:32 Books. Cats. Life is GOOD	I had a good week and an especially good day yesterday. On Monday the biggest Student's Club, Unifac, organized a quiz. Our student's club, which is kinda considered as the little brother or sister of Unifac, entered with two groups of 5 people. I headed the second group, the other one was headed by our praeses/president. My group scored better than the other group and the people in my group widely acknowledged it was thanks to me because "damn boy, you know a lot!". On Tuesday, we had a movienight (Crash, Monty Python and the Holy Grail) and afterwards I went to a cocktailparty. I entered the bar and I was welcomed with open arms by people I only know slightly. Wednesday, Thursday, nothing special happened, nothing bad happened. Yesterday, I had Political and Institutional History of the Ancien Regime where we discussed two chapters on the Declinación of Spain in the 17th century. Suffice it to say, the point which I was valliantly defending, even going so far as using a theory of a historian we saw in early lessons, was the same point as the professor was leaning toward. And no, this is a smart, intelligent professor. And later that day, another professor conceded that I was right. So I was whistling and humming "Oklahoma" yesterday, all day. Yes, I'm a geek, allow me my geeky pleasures such as people acknowledging that I'm in fact quite intelligent.
