    I have just today and tomorrow to get through. I'm taking Thursday and Friday off for the first vacation since getting hired by the city. I did take my birthday and Fiance's birthday off but since those days were in the middle of the week, they didn't feel vacation-ie.

    having a serious brainfart morning

    passed my normal bus stop. lucky the driver noticed i was vegging and slowed down around the corner.
    then i couldn't remember the code to get into my dayjob building.
    vegetated over the breakfast truck announcement, now has no milk chug to make coffee. can't drink coffee with the powder stuff in it blech blech blech

    permanent scratch on my eyeglasses lens. :shut: shut the front door

    sadder still, can't remember what i was vegetating about. hoping it wasn't a plot line resolution

    My son decided that I had a very upmarket washing machine when he came back home to live some time ago. He put washing in the machine before he went to work one day and came home to find it not only washed and dried, but ironed as well and placed in a neat pile on his bed, ready for him to put away.

    Went to doctor and he said it might be shingles but was healing up soon. Tried to get a hair cut but could not because of the shingles. I did get a coupon for a free haircut which I need to use this month.

    chickens are innocent.

    When Kulay first said the problems she had My immediate thought was Shingles. It can be very serious, much worse than Chicken Pox.

    Kulay I sincerely hope that your doctor gave you medications, specifically anti viral medications to treat it and didn't just say it was healing up. You need anti viral medication to kill the virus, and you should also have been advised that all the time you have the rash you are contagious, which was why you couldn't have the haircut. You won't give them shingles, but you could give them Chicken Pox. anyone who hasn't previously had Chicken Pox can catch it from you, and even Chicken Pox is more serious if you get it as an adult. It is particularly serious if a pregnant women contracts it.

    If they didn't give you any anti viral medication that virus will stay in your system, and can come back in later life. The older you are when you get shingles the more serious it can be, and the more chance of after effects, called called post-herpetic neuralgia.

    Don't believe people who say you can only get shingles once. It can re-occur. About 1 person in 50 will get a 2nd attack.

    ...not even looking at mine. The money from the last paycheque and the one I get tomorrow will have to hold me over for the next month or so until I can find something new.

    Worse off, the unemployment rate here in Oregon has been going back up instead of down. Now 7.2% putting us in the "top ten worst states" for job seekers (#7) just behind California and Michigan.

    supposedly it's easier to find a job when you already have one. sad.

    how long would you have to work to qualify for unemployment?

    ..a bottle of ginger beer (non alcoholic) usually does the trick for me. Unfortunately all the good ginger beers (like Fentiman's and A.J. Stephan's) are made with cane sugar which if I am not correct, is a "no no" for you.
