Noli immiscere te draconum rebus nam fragilis es dentibus et cum garo bene sapis.
is trying so very hard to talk myself out of an all weekend Bones marathon.....
but...but why? it's a good way to relax :) - Sir Shuping
I must remember as I venture to the wool shop: I have to have enough room for Dorothea to come stay in a couple of weeks. The entire den should not be stacked with skeins of yarn.
Obese people eligible for H1N1 vaccine - http://lacrossetribune.com/news...
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm - Abigail from Bookmarklet
Adequate supplies--what a wonderful idea! My wife's basically given up, despite being asthmatic: There's so little vaccine around here (Northern CA), apparently, that it's only going to children and extremely high-risk people. - Walt Crawford
Coughing all day = tired hedgehog. Bedtime
Sweet Dreams, Hedgehog - RAPatton from iPhone
Hey, I thought we'd agreed that coughing was *my* thing. You get sneezing. Don't get so greedy. (Also, I hope you feel better soon.) - lris
Seriously you're welcome to have the coughing back. I don't *really* want it....are you getting back to healthy? - Abigail
Yeah, I'm ok. Just a lingering cough. - lris
@jaffne just 1 dude. Hopefully made effective use of the single word "No." and then refused say any more. Scared him out of YS I think.
@jaffne I did actually....
is trying to chart a fleur de lis.....
Dang it...I forgot to wear "I'm working the public desk oh look there's something shiny on my left hand" jewelry again
*sigh*...tempted to never ever admit having an invite to anything ever again.
PLEAS SEND ME ENVITE! - Steve is older than ever

In case you're traveling.... Doesn't look like it covers CHI, which is my through airport of the moment. - Abigail from Bookmarklet
NTS...put deer season on the calendar so I remember not to try and call best friend that week.
Survived twi-hard party....now, home to hot tea and puffs tissues...
A party to celebrate the release of New Moon? One of our branches is doing a Twilight-related event tomorrow evening. - Julian
@younglibrarian is that because of the self-publishing thing?
@knittydotcom I've heard marginally better---but that's coming from someone based in ATL, which is Delta's hub.
Feeling kind of grinch-ish. Already have had ten different charity requests on my checkbook for the holiday season and it's not yet Thanksgiving. How do you decide what to contribute to?
I think this especially hard right now, b/c so many charities need the help more than usual. - Rachel Walden
Actually, part of it is extremely bad habits by some charities. I complained to two that we regularly donate to, early in the calendar year, that they've been sending multiple renewal letters since September. The response? "We start asking when our fiscal year begins and we keep on until you give"--not even an apology, much less willingness to cut the flow of excess mail, postage, etc. VERY tempted to drop those outfits. - Walt Crawford
Just to clarify: They *do not care* when you prefer to donate. Donate at the start of *their* fiscal year, even if it's a month after you just donated, or the letters just keep on coming. - Walt Crawford
It's not just mail--though I agree with Walt that I get a ton of snail mail too asking for funds--it's the 3 different drives at work (city sponsored general stuff, sponsor a family, book drive) plus the various ones through Kiwanis (Salvation Army, sponsor families, gifts in shoe boxes to go around the world, etc) plus plus plus plus plus...... - Abigail
When I processed some donations/managed db for a non-profit, people could specifically request not to get paper mail/solicitations. But then, it was an environmental group, so maybe we were better about that than most. :) - Rachel Walden
Our state-wide one at work has a local fund drive chairman who likes to use (via email) Kantian deontic harangues about our "duty" to contribute. As "retired" military I can spout off about duty all day without resorting to Kant. I do not need that crap! - Mar₭ the Engaged
If Iris gets rock hard abs from the perpetual cough, I want them from the continuous sneezing.

Just saw it, but you were already gone. - Laura B home

*sees batsignal* - Stephanie_GoBigBlue!
heads back to the room - Abigail
@EloisaJames this math teacher sounds really harsh...
Still miserably pathetic about my head cold. Will be whining until further notice.
c and zinc my friend - VAL D.
My sinuses and I would like to whine in harmony with you if you would allow us. - Laura B home
You bet Laura...bring on the group whining. - Abigail
Thank you. :) - Laura B home
Dear Sinuses...we both know I have to get through the next ten hours in public, let's play nice with the sudafed, shall we? Kthxbai
Amazon's website says all four packages have shipped--but the USPS has no record of three of the packages. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
that's a usps thing. they don't ever "track" packages...even if it has a tracking number on it. they only scan it at destination points and it's really freaking slow - Sir Shuping
In my experience, the *only* downside of USPS--lack of tracking. Otherwise, MediaMail seems to be faster than UPS Ground as well as cheaper. (Sez I, sitting here with the new Cites & Insights 9 trade paperback, shipped on Friday or Saturday from across the country via MediaMail...) - Walt Crawford
I guess... they seem to scan things when I send them, stuff is delayed 24 hours showing up on their website but I track packages I send all the time. - Abigail
USPS seems to roll dice as far as how they're going to scan packages. I've had them not show up in the tracking system until they arrive. - Jàson Puçkett
is going to EGYPT in January!
cool! for what? - Katie
A vacation with one of my best friends - Abigail
that sounds awesome!!! - Sir Shuping
I'm here to help you find/use library materials, not answer personal questions about my holiday plans.
Excuse me, but do you have a book about Abigail Goben's Thanksgiving plans? - joshua "magic" neff
And I'm looking for "Hedgehog Holidays 2009." - Laura B home
I keep forgetting that some people do not read with the speed or rapacity that I do.
we savor our books at a pedestrian 80 pages a minute - RAPatton
The pitiful hedgehog ordered pizza and is going to go curl up with the tissue box and tea/lemon.
Poor Abs! - joshua "magic" neff
Feel better, Abs! - Mary Carmen
Aw, feel better! - ÉllbeeÇee
*carefully pats hedgehog* Hope you feel better soon. :) - Laura B home
Is anyone else's gmail borked? Mine won't show the messages section....
mines ok, but i sent a message to another account and it hasn't gotten there yet - Sir Shuping
Mine freaked out on my phone earlier, but seems much better now. - ÉllbeeÇee
My usual fall cold finally caught up with me.
:( hope it leaves you soon - Sir Shuping
The girl scout cookies arrived!
there is a God......................thin mints I hope - VAL D.
Yup and do-si-dos and trefoils - Abigail
No Samoas? :( - Laura B home
I have trefoils and thin mints. - Julian
O.O It's not March! How'd you get them? - Anika
This is when we get ours....apparently the semi with them arrived last night. And Samoas break all the acceptable-food-with-braces rules...so, no, not this year. - Abigail
Awww. No fair! - Anika
mmmmmmmm I like my thin mints frozen.. - VAL D.
I need coffee....
