Only one thing to be grateful for today

I was with summerlady this morning. I didin't feel much like being grateful when I got up. I - again - have been up since 4:00 and I keep thinking it feels like there's a tomato in my brain (a tornado, really, but that's just the way my brains working this morning.)

However, on my way to work this morning, whilst slowing for a yellow light, a boom truck behind me - a mother flicker of a boom truck, either assumed I was going to run the yellow or he wasn't paying attention. The 30 foot black skid marks punctuate the fact that he stopped no more than a mere one inch from the back of my wee little Mazda. If being rear-ended by a monster boom truck wouldn't have hurt enough, being broadsided by cross traffic wouldn't have hepled the situation, I'm sure.

But he didn't hit me. So I'm grateful.

And I think I will spend the rest of the day under my desk.

(no subject)

Sh*t, I hate feeling out of control. I've got two projects due - one of which is that group one that I've only been assigned the group - and I missed an email that went to my spam folder that suggested we meet tomight. (Which, luckily they decided against!)

It's funny (ok, no it's not) how when you start loosing control of a few things EVERYTHING seems to be out of control.

(Going back under the desk now)

I am too freekin' old

I am too freekin' old to be staying up to midnight doing homework.

For this reason alone, I am going to stop doing it now... at two minutes to eleven.

Besides, I have laundry to put away yet.
