amoxicillin has been my friend on numerous occasions... sympathies for the ear infection, know what you're going through there.
no! can't you rescue the tomato plant?

Amoxicillin is good stuff! Thankfully, the ear infection has pretty much subsided, but I'm still popping those giant pink pills until they're gone.

"Uprooted" turned out to be a misnomer, but the tomato plant got snapped off low on the stem, and couldn't be re-potted, so the path of least resistance may prove to be just getting a new one. Fortunately, they're in-season and cheap *g*

You're having a bad run of it right now :(

Have some ♥ to keep you going.

Things have improved. My m0mmy bought me ice cream, also shells and cheese (one of my favorite crap foods). :9

Also, in non-suck news, the lawyers are okay with her proposed changes so she does get the full severance package. Unfortunately, they deposited it to her account in a lump sum and took like $3K out in taxes (which, yeah, they have to do, but). Still! We're okay through the beginning of July or so.

Thank you for ♥, as always. H dropped me a brief line and I'm not sure what I did to deserve him, either. ♥

I'm really glad that the severance package has all been worked out for the l0lm0m. If they're going to be asses, they should at least be fair asses.

You do (and are) many things to deserve H. And much other stuff as well ♥

Not only that, but today she got a letter from them stating that she was eligible for the quarterly incentive (a kind of profit-sharing/bonus), and a check for about $50. So that was nice. :) Also she gets outplaced tomorrow, and one of the topics is "Selling Yourself", which we're both crap at. *g* (Mom's tack is to be all, "lol i cans has job nau plz??? :D" and mine is to be all, "NOTHING STANDS BETWEEN ME AND THE APARTMENT IN BLOOMINGTON. >E")

He believes in me, for whatever reason. He shouldn't, given my propensity to be a world-class fuck-up, but that's okay; I'm not going to argue with him. ♥
