1. Had a short day at work today as we need like, five and a half caregivers according to our lords and masters, and six according to the people who are actually on the floor (they let us wear jeans to work on Tuesday. does anybody SERIOUSLY feel loved because they get to wear jeans to work? our flippin' UNIFORM is khakis!) but of course, she says irritably, god forbid etc etc etc, and I drew the short straw for the week, haha. It was just as well, I am still tired from yesterday and I was FLYING today too.
So now I'm at the library nominally writing and really being shown pictures of Korean high fashion by Nino for her own entertainment (the eighties called. they want their Day-Glo back) and wondering if its worth it to get my free coffee or if I should save it for later.
2. I have, f'rreals, lost my damn MP3 player this time and Amy's is lurking somewhere in the house. Also it's an iPod and ports that touch Apple etc etc. Also I would have to download shit to make it work, since iTunes has no Linux port.
Annnnd I'm broken until next Friday, sigh. I've been poking despondently around the internet and have come to the conclusion that I need to bribe/bully/beg someone to take me to Fry's in Wilsonville. Feh. I'd take WES but I don't even know where it ends up? ....although there's a really good lossleader on Amazon right now. Hmm. Hmm! I'll have to check it out on Friday I guess.
3. There is no three, but I think the new generic zoloft might work okay.
4. More drabble stuff! Here is an extract from the Enterprise Handarts Society minutes, for Erin In Canada.
MINUTES OF THE ENTERPRISE HANDCRAFT SOCIETY
PRESIDENT: Spock
VICE PRESIDENT: Gaila
SECRETARY: Christine
GUESTS: Uhura (via Gaila), Stovin (via T'Rea)
All members were in attendance.
No Cookie Monsters were in attendance this meeting. Head Cookie Monster and Dictator for Life is in sick bay, and Assistant Head Cookie Monster and God-Emperor for Eternity is engaged in monitoring him. Cookie Monster Extraordinary and Immortal Priest-King was unable to attend via video conference but sends his respects.
The committee in charge of the current charity project reports the Society has met its current goal for winter wear to be donated at the nearest planet or station in need. Member Verity reports that the next planned stop raises fiber animals, and has volunteered to investigate the possibility of obtaining a fiber supply for the spinning and felting demonstrations planned for the next recruitment drive.
It was proposed by Vice President and seconded by members T'Rea, Hngresft and Unger that the Society concentrate its efforts on an afghan for the Captain, who has been in and out of the sickbay more than usual lately with the advent of allergy season on the last three planets visited. The President abstained from voting, but agreed to tutor any interested members in Vulcan knitting for purposes of the afghan. He also informed the Society that the Captain is expected to recover nicely from the last away mission, and the Secretary confirmed that the Captain should be allowed out of medical coma within two days, or whenever the CMO judged him fit to be screamed at.
It was decided that all members would provide their own yarn, in co-ordinating colors of red, blue and gold, and that the squares should be approximately 30 x 30 cm, in a worsted weight fiber. The Vice President stated she believes the Captain is capable of dealing with a hand-wash only piece and the Secretary concurred. The President said it was illogical to expect Captain Kirk to defend his afghan from sickbay sterilization fields and the CMO. The Secretary was forced to second his concerns. The Secretary was requested to attempt to explain to the CMO the basic principles of washing delicate fabrics. Guest Uhura said if the Captain couldn't beat it into the CMO's head after three years of rooming together, she didn't know who could. The Vice President contributed an anecdote regarding the Captain's efforts to teach the CMO to do laundry successfully. It was ultimately decided to make the afghan of washable natural fibers, and members were reminded to consult the President or Secretary if there was any doubt over the Captain's tolerance to the fiber used.
The President reminded members that any items for the Life On A Starship display on Terra are due next week and will be sent the week after when the rendezvous with the Fatima is made, and also any objects requiring blocking that will not fit into the member's own cabin may be blocked out in Domestic Recreation 10.
