I took a shower that i've been overdue for! Yay, Jane! Talked to my doctor today. It was mostly to check on a form for my disability insurance that he's been sitting on for six weeks or more. He hadn't done it! I guess he knew i was going to ask about it as he hastily said he had it right in front of him and he was going to do it today. It was kind of funny!

@Soupe du jour:

I'm sure your nephew's mom will appreciate the email you forwarded to her. She'll likely be comforted that her son is not forgotten. Glad your cold has peaked and is improving. Sorry to hear that your brother is in such bad shape. When i have difficult calls to make, i set myself a deadline and sometimes even an alarm on my phone. Sounds like you've had a tough day, talking to your dad as well. Eager to see what your reno surprise will be. It'll likely be something good. I doubt a contractor would build up suspense over something negative.

@HALLIEBETH87:

Congratulations on your excellent GPA! There a specific word for the sensation of bugs crawling on or under your skin: FORMICATION. If you ever say it out loud, be sure and step on the M really hard, otherwise people think you are saying something else!
