I'm pretty sure my bus passed Jack London this morning.

How are *you* doing today?

I have a little headache but I am otherwise good! Looking forward to work today as I get to work on valentines!

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

Drink more water!

Unless it's a stress headache like I've been having. Then you should get a massage.

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

I'm doing pretty well, actually. I'm feeling the momentum of change--and it's invigorating (if a bit scary, too).

Not so invigorating is my hair freezing on the way to work, considering most of my commute involves being on the train (frozen in 5 minutes!)

Have done voting, but not much commenting. Sorry dudes and dudettes. Too much else going on that has to take priority at the moment.

Unrelated: Dreamed Ani songs last night.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Change can definitely be scary but it can also be a wonderful thing... you're so right.

Frozen hair isn't quite the best way to start your day, missy! I do hope you thaw out soon!

[rattsu.livejournal.com]

I am now about to go and bake some bread and cook some chili... Then hopefully tonight I might be inspired to get some more proper writing done. As always, once LJ idol is going again, my brain feels a lot more alive. Ah, how addicted I am...

Also, finally got my voting done!

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

Idol has really helped get my brain going, too. The past few months, I've been far more writing inclined.

[supremegoddess1.livejournal.com]

I am cold. 16 degrees =/= the NC I know.

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

16 degrees sucks anywhere you go--but at least in the north we're equipped for it. Blargh. What is up with the crazy coldness this year?

[stormkitty.livejournal.com]

I discovered today that our little weather station thing we have (with a temp sensor outside) puts a little snowman next to the little dude (who was bundled in all his clothes this morning) when the temp drops below 32 degrees. Keep in mind, we've had this weather station for two and a half years and I've never seen that. Chilly!

Other than that, lots to do, no motivation to do it. Gotta figure out something to change that. Fighting the urge to take after all three animals today...they're snuggled up into warm places snoozing. That seems like WAY more fun than what I have to do.

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

I'd totally join the animals, if I could! I'd rather be napping in a warm snuggly place than sitting at my desk.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Another Monday. Booo for that. I need to win the lottery so every day can be Friday.

Sorry for everybody suffering from frozen hair and frostbitten nipples out there!!! Yikes. I just checked our weather and we're expecting a high of 77 today. I feels bad for ya'll's!!! Seriously.

Bleh... must now caffeinate and trudge on to work. Oy.

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

Winning the lottery would be pretty awesome. I'd probably still work, but at least I could work because I was doing something interesting that I liked, instead of because I had to pay bills. Also, now I'm singing "If I Had a Million Dollars".

Um. Frostbitten nipples sounds like the worst thing ever. And I speak as someone who has actually frozen her toes solid. You've got one twisted mind.

I hope your caffeination goes well and that your work day isn't too miserable.

[pricelessone.livejournal.com]

Cold and hungry. Plan to change both ASAP! But at least I voted! Yay, polls!

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

What do you plan to remedy your hunger with?

*such a food voyeur*

[negativeneve.livejournal.com]

My dad lives in Fort Lauderdale, FL and sent me an email that said:

It is 32F in Eindhoven and 35F in Fort Lauderdale right now.. Brrrr!

It's normal to get that cold, and he doesn't have a heater.

[negativeneve.livejournal.com]

It's normal to get that cold HERE.

[beautyofgrey.livejournal.com]

I am going to tackle my work week!

I'm excited because I found a local CSA still taking applications....and so I'm going to apply for lots and lots of organic veggies this spring and summer! Yay!

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

Hooray CSA! I was a member of one last year and it was fantastic. Probably won't happen this year--but we'll see.

[poppetawoppet.livejournal.com]

sighs here. Have to go to work in an hour. Have to keep telling myself at least it's a job. Ugh. Food service.

Haven't voted yet, but I will be reading tonight.

(I have been podficcing, so...)

[liret.livejournal.com]

I am on my way back home to new orleans. Yay!

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

Safe travels, Jess!

[worldofcharlie.livejournal.com]

I'm gonna just try to survive Monday. Gonna probably do the wash, be online most of the day-start prepping up our place for A friend that'll be staying with us for two weeks.

How did everyone's weekend go? We finally saw Avatar - great movie, saw it in Imax & 3-D and got a headache afterward. It was definitely worth it though.

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

I did the wash this weekend. While it was not thrilling, it did make me feel productive and accomplished. And now I have clean undies to wear to work!

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

I'm exhaustipated, thanks for asking. Didn't sleep too well last night; I think my blood sugar dropped too low at some point, although when I got up around 7am and checked it, it read out as a little over 90, which should by all rights be perfectly fine. *shrug*

Maybe I just need more caffeine...

And I keep having this strange ringing in my ears... oh wait, that's just the phone lines... nevermind.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Exhaustipated. I like it... I mean, the word... not the fact that you are. :-p

Sorry you had a rough night and I hope that pesky ringing in your ears goes away. :-p

Its monday

[teenagewitch.livejournal.com]

Well since I have one sick husband and one sick kid this morning, I have to say that so far its not turning into the best of mondays. I am pretty sure I didn't sleep since they didn't sleep.
I think I need caffeine this morning.

[jfargo.livejournal.com]

I'm doing the Uberman polyphasic sleep (http://polyphasic-sleep.info/resources/) schedule. I started a little over 24 hours ago and am so far doing okay. Catch me again in another 24 hours and we'll see if I can say the same.

I think I'll be able to, but you never know.

So that's how I'm doing today. That and cold.

[supremegoddess1.livejournal.com]

sounds interesting!

[drjeff.livejournal.com]

Still slow here at work... a lot of the students are still gone. Three-day weekend coming up, as I'm taking Martin Luther King day off in protest of everyone just giving the day lip service.

Other than that, trying to stave off work-boredom. :)

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Might I suggest crossword puzzles or a rousing game of Spider Solitaire on your computer to stave off the boredom? It's helped me pass many an hour here at the office. lol..

[cobycaroline.livejournal.com]

Doing well, all things considered. Still adapting to making sure my butt is out of bed when my alarm goes off the first time to take the new dog out for her first walk of the day.

[joeymichaels.livejournal.com]

I have almost turned the tables on this cold/flu thing, but its a tenacious little bugger.

Plus side: I temporarily have a sexy, gravelly voice.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Good luck finally getting over on that nasty little bugger.

And hey, with that voice you can probably charge $.99 a minute on the phone. :-p

[thndrstd.livejournal.com]

Here's how I'm doing today:

mumble, mumble, mumble, dirty word, mumble, mumble, dirty word, cold, mumble, sleepy, mumble, mumble, mumble, impressive streak of dirty words

[norda.livejournal.com]

Exhausted and overwhelmed. My sleep cycle sucks and I've got brain fog to beat the band.

[lostin-thestars.livejournal.com]

I finally managed to reset my sleep system. Wahoo!!!

There are some amazing entries this week, cheers all you amazing writers!!

[jenandbronze.livejournal.com]

I am a horrible person to comment on entries. Isgh, I wish there were more time during the day to do it! This weekend got to em being busy (and end tired). I have another semi-busy week. I have no idea how I am able to juggle all this and do Idol. I wasn't busy like this last year and did so much, and the fact that last year i was not on Twitter or Facebook! LOL!

I can't believe, if I understand Gary correctly, we will have 100 contestants after this poll?!

[joeymichaels.livejournal.com]

I think he means we'll have half the number of contestants that we started with - which is something like 115, I think.

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

Physical therapy just about killed me today. I can barely type, my shoulder hurts so much.

Otherwise, I feel fantastic, thanks for asking. Looking forward to warmer weather, later in the week.

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

And, boo. LJ is being buggy again and I'm not getting my comment notification emails.

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

I survived my first day at my new "grown-up" job! It went well, pretty boring because I had nothing to really do yet...but not too bad really.
