I feel like I have a hangover, but unfortunately I did no drinking last night. I had to get up at a ridiculously early hour to show Brother Bear to 200 school children this morning, and when I got home after noon I tried to take a nap to catch up on some of the sleep I missed--only I had exhausting dreams about work-related disasters. So now I'm groggy, caffiene-deprived (since I only had time for half my normal intake before heading to work), and freezing! It's 10° outside, with a wind chill of -5°, so it's dang cold! ...BRRRR...
Okay, I edged the thermostat up to 70° and threw a flannel nightie on over my satin one, so I hope to warm up shortly. In the meantime, there's the coffee dilemma: if I drink coffee this late in the day, it will keep me awake well past my 2am bed time. However, a cup o' joe sounds nice and toasty warm, and perhaps the caffiene will provide enough of a boost that I will be able to finish my homework that's due tonight. Wait! There's more! If I act now, I will have the added advantage of all that lovely steam to aid in unclogging my stuffy sinus passages...hmmm....half-caf ought to do the trick! (Talk amongst yourselves until I get back...)
Oh--everybody link to Daniel, mostly cuz he thinks I'm cool, but also because he's tired of being a lab rat and wants to spend some quality time as an opposum.
I'm really bummed that Mr. Green is on hiatus. My homework chapter is on "Diversity" in the workplace, and I know he went to a seminar about it not too long ago... now I'll have to try and figure out the assignment question on my own. (Yes, the question--if I understood the question, I'm sure I would have no problem coming up with an answer).
I usually go the tea route when it's not morning. It's hot, it's steamy, but you don't have to deal with the caffeinne buzz if you don't want it (well, at least my caffeinne-addict self doesn't, as it takes me a pot of coffee before I even feel it, but in general that's the case... er, you know...).
That, or when it's cold out hot chocolate kicks ass. I keep forgetting to buy it though. Dangit.
BTW, what the heck kind of work-related disaster could you possibly have at a movie theater?
(3° with a -9°chill here BTW, if we're comparing :P )

Signed,
Victor and his Rats
That's why you're 'sposed to keep some decaf around! Or some Swiss Miss...

LOL! You name it, I've had it...check out the category Theatrical Events in the Contents sections at the bottom of the sidebar. Everything from the possessed toilet to the clerk stuck on the roof, all for your reading enjoyment....
