    I'm on top of things now. If the past several weeks are any indication, it's time once again for my inbox to fill with more work.

    From my physiological response to stress, I am realizing that I could never handle being pregnant.
    Good to know... never really wanted to find out.

    Some of you will say I jinxed it, but I say it wouldn't have mattered either way.

    So much for being able to take this evening off.

    I'm off tomorrow and Saturday because of my brother's wedding. All I can think is how I'm going to lose two days.

    I'll also have to rush home the morning after the wedding to do more work on Sunday than I'd initially planned.

    You totally jinxed it, or you didn't account for all the possibilities.

    I need to work on packing hubby's lunch. He's so spoiled these days.

    I obviously did account for all the possibilities because I pretty much called it.

    In evaluating what has landed in my inbox, it's not as bad as it could have been under normal circumstances. Of course, maybe I'm jinxing it again. Maybe I'll get even more while I'm out of town tomorrow. I'll have to see what I find when I get home on Sunday.

    Is it June yet?

    Also: When I know I'm in the clear with the large projects, I'm totally booking a shiatsu massage. My mid back and neck have been tight/achy. I need some release.

    I made a decision on summer child care. I hope my choice also decides to choose us.

  17. She is so striking. Have you ever noticed the scar on her lip? It's all I can look at sometimes.

    The show itself is kind of silly, but it's fun to see what fairy tale they're going to manipulate next. (Although I do like that the women/princesses aren't all that helpless.)

    That scar is a part of what makes her so attractive. It really is a combination of looks and acting/mannerisms. For whatever reason, I often find "icy bitch" really attractive.

    I like some fairy tale retellings. (Not Disney.) I first found my love of retellings in Angela Carter. There are some interesting-looking ones out there that I haven't check out but probably should.

    The show does have silly points, but I'm constantly impressed by how they put the pieces together. It captures the imagination, and that's what keeps me watching.
     
  19. Recently I've learned that you like Amazonian Icy Bitches. If things were different, I would have broken your heart by now.

    I remember reading "Politically Correct" fairytales. They were funny, but I can't for the life of me remember who wrote them.
