J is home from Euro vacation today. I miss her. And thanks to the Interwebs I can track her flight precisely, and see that her plane is over Newfoundland, right now. It's an Airbus A330-200, flying at 436 kts (planned: 399 kts), at 38,000 feet.
They serve brunch on the flight. |

I bet they are trying to get her to sign up for their credit card right now.

Just spent two hours giggling like school girls with an old friend. My face and ribs hurt from laughing. Life is good.

Just got back from a nice lunch with orthodoc.
She's as friendly and intelligent in person as she is here on the Cellar. And she's looking great! Sorry, but I didn't think to get pictures until I was posting this. So no pics. Very nice to meet you, orthodoc! |

It was such a pleasure to meet you, glatt!
We had lunch at the National Building Museum - what a gorgeous building! Glatt gave me the inside scoop on things to see and do around Arlington/DC. And I learned some cool things, such as the fact that glatt is an accomplished ice skater! I also forgot about pics until it was too late - but really, honestly, lunch happened.

My doc was awesome today. I may stop hating on the entire medical profession. maybe
 Not only did she call me at home because she wanted a blood test redone, but on learning I was toying with cancelling my apt tomorrow, she did almost an entire consultation over the phone to save time in the morning, and then she called back a few minutes later and told me she's persuaded her nurse to start a little earlier tomorrow so I could go in earlier and be able to make it to chaperone Thor's field trip afterwards. happy. for the first time in a long while. which also makes me happy
