The surgery

Was a failure. They could find my fallopian tubes, but they couldn't get the catheters that would load the springs in to my fallopian tubes. And... I was honest enough to tell them that I'm getting a cold, so they refused to intubate me & put me fully under to do the regular surgery. I'm supposed to get in touch with them once I'm healthy & we'll re-schedule. Unfortunately, I have all the downsides of the surgery. My insides ache, I'm bleeding, nauseous & tired.

OMG!!!111!~

I just won a ready-made Dark Garden corset!! I entered 2 raffles at Dickens Fair (1 for ready-made, 1 for custom), and they drew the tickets tonight. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! I sent Dark Garden email asking if they would be open the day after Christmas.

Me? Afraid of the dark?

The power went out around 8:30, for about 5 minutes. I heard a lot of thunder before, during & after. Lucky me, I was in the bathroom. Luckier me, the big flashlight was right near my desk. I've got my computer up (duh), but not Rik's (who is in Chicago). The TV works, but I can't get the volume on the tuner to work. I've set the alarm on my cell phone for 6:30am (just in case), and I have the flashlight on the headboard. It's a good thing it's chilly here...don't have to worry about the food in the fridge & freezer if the power goes out again. I'm going to bed now...now where is my teddybare or is that bear?

Day 1

Is in the past (mostly). They are...on the surface anyway...disorganized. There's boxes & binders & piles of paper in every office that I've seen. I wonder if they have recently moved or do they just have no real storage system. They just threw me right into things. They are due to transmit payroll tomorrow. I'm supposed to attend a meeting tomorrow afternoon & explain to them all the pros & cons of upgrading their timekeeping & payroll systems. I'm still not clear if they are upgrading no matter what, or if they are still in the 'thinking & need convincing' stage. I'd be more comfortable with this if I had spent more than a few hours working on their current systems. By & large the people seem friendly & welcoming. I got introduced to too many people & shown too many places around the office today. I only remember 3 peoples names and that's only because I've talked to them quite a bit. I think my boss is the person I'm sharing an office with. Speaking of office, it's kind of like a fishbowl. 3 solid walls & 4th wall that's 2 windows & a sliding glass door, facing out into the main office area. The drive is quick, but there's construction going on about a mile from the office, so I had to blindly re-route myself this morning to get there. There's quite a bit of food options near by...but I intend to start bringing my lunch to work soon...once I remember where the lunch room is.

An Interesting Orgasm

Have you ever had your mind wander in the midst of masturbating (or enjoying the shower attachment in my case) and it latches on to a mental image that you didn't think would be something that would not only push you over the edge, but also make it a rather intense one? Yeah...interesting thoughts I apparently have...now I just have to figure out if it means anything.

Friday the 19th

I'm thinking that a nifty way to celebrate my 1st week on the new job would be to go to The Exiles Carnal Carnival & then over to SF Citadel for Queer Playground. Anyone else going?
