18 July 2006

The good*, the bad** and the ugly*** [More:]
*Botan Rice Candy. You can eat the wrapper!
**hand and wrist PAIN! (CTS? Tendonitis?)
***The need to put up a sign: "Trash can IS NOT for toilet waste. PLEASE FLUSH soiled tissue."
the good: Family in town this weekend.
the bad: no money with which to entertain them.
the ugly: none yet, all is beautiful today because I received an absolutely gorgeous pic from a friend that totally captures her essence, and one that I can't seem to stop thinking about.

One of those funny moments when you see something you like and keep going "man, that is so cool, that is just so cool.", over and over in your head.

the good: I'm barely putting in any effort at work and nobody's seemed to notice. Maybe that means zero hour is approaching.
the bad: It's Hotter Than Balls Out!
the ugly: I spilled a little honey mustard on my new shorts.

The good: Being nearly finished with my current job means lots of time to play on the internets.
The bad: My new job will require that I work three times as hard for twice as long.
The ugly: Over 100 degrees and 80% humidity.

the good: I've been ploughing through a mountain of work recently, but I can see the other side
the bad: heat!
the ugly: trying to console sister in law who has broken up with boyfriend of 5 years who I did not like. it's tough.

the good: chicken with garlic mushroom sauce for dinner.
the bad: 47C (117F) on my tube line.
the ugly: not enough people who use my tube line also use soap/water and/or deodorant.

the good: awesome fresh cantelope in our fridge
the bad: my ganglion cyst on my wrist is bugging me today
the ugly: I have to vacuum. in this heat. it's not really ugly b/c I'm inside but still. no additional heat is needed.

good: It's really nice outside. Not too hot, not too cold
bad: I have one week to submit the topic of my next conference talk and I have no idea what to say
ugly: I saw a man on the bus sporting "Insane Clown Posse" tattoos all over his face and hands and arms and I wanted to laugh because it's just so silly to get HOMICIDE tattooed on the back of your hand no matter how tough you think you are.

good: Crazy deadline at work extended. I can breathe.

bad: My brother leaves tomorrow. He just happened to visit during the busiest week at work to date. Sigh.

ugly: I have a blobby stomach and thighs due to copious cosumption of beer. See also: PMS cramps.
posted by Specklet 18 July | 16:22
good: If I sneak out early, no one will notice
bad: too many people making small talk with me about the weather
ugly: Haven't cleaned my house since before the 4th of July. Or my office, for that matter...
posted by muddgirl 18 July | 17:07
Good: I'm about to go have a nice beer with a good friend.
Bad: I shouldn't do that. I should work more. I suck.
Ugly: I have a huge, huge, huge ZIT on my face. Maybe I should put a superheroes bandaid over it, just to emphasize the whole hideosity factor.
posted by mygothlaundry 18 July | 17:41
Good: I do not, apparently, have leg cancer. Just something called a blahblahblah keratosis. I think. Also, my first published music review ran last week.
Bad: Bus drama. I don't care how much you are trying to pretend that you don't notice the woman who is obviously eight months pregnant standing while you are sitting there yacking on your cell phone. And don't give me dirty looks when I tell you to move.
Ugly: MGL, I too have a weird crop of zits that appeared as if from nowhere around 10:45 this morning. It's verra strange.
posted by jokeefe 18 July | 18:01
Zits here too!

Maybe taz and dodgy need to disinfect this place.

*looks around, sniffs*

*sprays thread down with oxy*

Also, isn't that oxy logo a little, erm, risque?

Man, what's with the pelvises? Pelvii?
posted by Specklet 18 July | 18:54
Good: Lake swimming with my boys, and an upcoming Poconos weekend with Mr. V.
Bad: Too hot to want to do anything, and my garden needs watering again.
Ugly: Honestly can't think of anything right now, but I'll get back to you.

Good: I've made some progress on my decluttering tasks.
Bad: Sounds like my cat is eating plastic in the other room. Also, work is insane.
Ugly: Cramps.
