I forgot to shave and forgot to put on a belt this morning. What's up with that! Now I'm scruffy and my pants are falling down. I had to remove everything from my pockets.

bad news: I realized when I was about to put in my conacts this morning that I'd somehow missed placing the right one into my lens case.

good news: I found it sitting on top of the case, all hard and smooshed - which is still sort of bad - but at least I didn't rinse it down the sink like I did the last time with my left contact over the holidays.

Good News: Found a really cheap flight to FL in September for our cruise.

Bad News: Because I have to make sure there's room for a dog on the plane (since she'll be vacationing at my parents house while we cruise), I have to talk to someone at Delta, and I've called and been on hold for about 15 minutes now. I even tried calling a different number with another phone, but no dice. Now I'm on hold on two phones, one on each shoulder.

Bad news: I'm wearing my dress backwards! I just discovered this, and it's after 11 in the morning. It's henley style, with 3 buttons in the front. Kind of like this:

Except that right now the buttons are in the back ;)

And I don't wear it open to my navel.

The good news is that it looks really cute on me.

Mildly bad news:
I just helped somebody add clip art to their resume.

Mildly good news:
They're not applying for the position we're currently interviewing people for.

ico- That story makes me feel better about the days I show up to work with my shirt inside-out. :)

Bad news: I just finished up a stressful, three-month long project this morning, and the next project is already waiting for me to start working on it this afternoon. Not so much as an afternoon off between them.

Good news: I'm going to leave the building for lunch today, for the first time in over a month, and it's sunny and WARM out there.

Bad news: I feel like shit today (I'm getting a cold, I think) and need to do some laundry and tidying up.

Good news: Mum is visiting Friday through Monday (the reason for the tidying up).

Bad news: Forgetting to zip my fly has become a daily occurrence.

Good news: The hallucinations are starting to look like birds instead snakes and wolves.

Meh: The Wilco gig I snagged a ticket for is on a Sunday and trains back from London suck then which is going to compound the fact that the venue is a nightmare to get to and I almost always have to leave early.

Woo: Scott McCloud from Girls Against Boys emailed me for permission to use some photos I took of them in concert and put up on Flickr. I'm not sure why, really not very good. Never mind!

Bad news: My boss hasn't begun to train me on my new duties, so my raise is being held up.

Good news: I still get all my current work done in 30 minutes a day, so I have the rest of the day to dick around.

Bad news: I'm hung over. Again. What a lush.

Good news: It's utterly lovely outside and I had the forethought to leave a window open at home.

Good news: I had a four hour nap.

Better news: I got the tidying up done.

Bad news: Laundry isn't done.

Good news: We went camping for spring break.

Bad news: I found two ticks feasting on me, so we came home today (a day early).

Better news: I went to the campus health center and got prophylactic Doxycyclene. For $5.50.
