ok. i've been coughing a heck of a lot more in the last 3 days than when i was really sick. whats up with that? i think i'm gonna go back to nighttime nyquil so i can get some rest medicine. i had to wake up at 6am today, which is about an hour earlier for me, and i couldnt get to sleep cuz i was coughing. not a good thing.

have you ever had to deal with Microsoft Outlook Web Access? god it sucks. i mean, its decent for a few aspects of mail reading, but after that it just blows big whale chunks. big blubbering meat chunks all over the place. theres much better web based mail implementations all over the place. why they have to package such a poorly functioning one with outlook/exchange is beyond my comprehension.

enough about work issues. i should mention here that i might be going to brunch with GROCERYGIRL this weekend. yes, she's resurfaced. we'll see if it really happens. shes not got a good track record for following through on her "let's get together" emails.

i'm supposed to have lunch sometime this week with LA FEMME. but this week has turned into work-lunch city. i offered to make it dinner, but i've not heard a reply to that. mainly cuz i just sent it off at 1145pm...

its almost time to start panic-ing over what xmas gifts to buy the 'rents and the niece and nephew.
