Monday update

[yendi]

1. Came in this morning to a meeting proposal from 8:30-1. After I finished laughing hysterically, I rescheduled that one. I'll be lucky if I'm caught up (on work, not reading LJ) enough to meet by ten.

2. shadesong's birthday party was this weekend, and it was a blast. We had tons of people, and there was a good enough crowd vibe that I never had to run upstairs to escape. I did spend a good chunk of time in my office, chatting away from the noise with folks like dicotomygrrl, asciikitty, and oneagain, but I also spent time in the party proper, and saw lots of folks I enjoy chatting with, like mgrasso, jmspencer, theloriest, and other nifty people.

3. Also in for the party, we had jenphalian, lbitw, sideshownate, slipjig, rafaela, elionwyr, and zarhooie crashing at our place. slipjig, with help from ayalanya (who was not crashing at our place), cooked a damned nice dinner on Saturday night that really helped reduce everyone's stress and get the party going on the right foot.

4. Work is eating my soul this week, and what little time isn't spent worrying about work will be spent on Elayna's upcoming birthday party this weekend, and the assorted fun stuff (in-laws!) associated with that. Any other time will be spent on the 261 Days of FIlm project. After that, I might be able to read LJ or catch up, but assume that I'm not reading anything, so if you need something, email me. I do plan on catching up on comments, at least, sometime today or tomorrow.

5. Incidentally, my old Emory email account was killed back in January (before it was supposed to be, but well after I technically had a "right" to it). So if you think you know my email address, but are not sending to either my LJ email or something at gmail, I'm not getting your message.

ETA: Anyone left out of items #2 or 3 was left out because I'm tired, stressy, and forgetful, not because I hate you or didn't enjoy spending time with you; part of what made it such a good party is that there wasn't a soul there that I didn't like.

*kiss* Don't you worry about the party. Or the in-laws. I'll handle all of that.

Love you, honey. Have more coffee, try not to go crazy (-er), and I'll see - and snuggle - you tonight. Maybe we can watch Vampyros Lesbos for your review? :)

*Kiss* You've got limited spoons, too. We'll share the in-laws and the party. Besides, they tend to like me better. :-)

Love you too. And a quiet movie sounds nice.

Heh. Too true.

I always enjoy rescheduling 830 meetings. Gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling inside.

Thank you again for everything. 'Twas a wonderful, much-needed time. *hugs* And glad you liked the dinner! (Although you should've included yourself in that; you helped immeasurably.)

Eh. I helped a bit with minor things, but you did the majority of the work.
