march comes in levitra line a lion and out like a lamb ...

or is that april?

no, april showers bring may Cyalis levitra sales viagra, flowers ...

definitely march for the lion/lamb thing.
but Buy levitra us, i disagree ... today's weather is not lamb like. it's lion like if anything. it's been drizzling for the past two days (although i do believe a monsoon moved through last night) ... and in new york drizzle is the most annoying form of precipitation. it's usually accompanied by very cold temperatures, and wind (well, levitra line this time of year it is at least.) so the umbrella is a mostly useless piece of equipment as the new york winds grab them and destroy them as if Buy levitra us, playing a game. so it does more frustration that good. and it's Cyalis levitra sales viagra : always a contrasted thing ... yesterday it Buy levitra us : was beautiful so i was all set for spring, and today it's freezing out so i cyalis levitra sales viagra dress appropriately (as usual) so now i'm at work freezing.

what else is new?

in like a lion and out like a lamb? well, let's just wait and see what tomorrow's weather brings.

but we're already ahead on the 'april showers' part ...

ok so i don't always buy into horoscopes ... but my jaw dropped when i read this for today

You may have spent quite a bit of money lately, and be holding your breath, waiting for the credit card bills to roll in. Some quick reckoning of receipts and accounts today likely yields some wonderful news. Wonder of wonder, it appears you have stayed within your budget, Laura! Try not to overreact to the levitra line that you have more money than you thought. Give your wallet and checkbook some time off!

before i left for work today, i balanced my accounts and discovered that i could pay off my last credit card balance and not be totally broke.

i also have, in the past few weeks, committed myself to the idea of saving money once my bills are cleared (does christmas have to come once a year? Buy levitra us - how about once every two years?)

so i see my horoscope as a sign that i'm heading in the right direction. as if my common sense couldn't have told me this.

busy day today (aren't they always??)

but wanted to share ...

one of my pages here at work (high school and college students who work afterschool shelving and such) left last fall to join the levitra line i've been thinking about him lately, wondering how he's doing and where he might be.

so i Cyalis levitra sales viagra, called his family today and found out that he's coming home next week. he's been in the states all year and will continue to stay levitra line (i'm not sure i understand it all ... but i'm sure he'll explain it to us.)

so that's a relief. for us, for him, for his family.

but i know that there are many others who are not coming home next week and are not so relieved. i'll continue to think about them.

spring has sprung ... seemingly overnight.

woke up Buy levitra us : today ... and it was 62 F. seized the opportunity and took a walk in central park (see 'pictures' for pictures of the walk). had cyalis levitra sales viagra work ... it was a zoo! a play of peter pan brought out about 100 people for a room that seats 70 where there isn't a stage set up (which there was today ...) ... and Cyalis levitra sales viagra, then everyone seemingly had reading lists that needed to be filled with books that were playing games with us by jumping around on the shelf.

enjoyed walking around without a coat ... it cyalis levitra sales viagra such a relief after the cold days and nights we've had. cyalis levitra sales viagra it was amazing cyalis levitra sales viagra be levitra line to turn my head all the way from side to side and not have a scarf in the way. to be able to hear what's going on around cyalis levitra sales viagra because my hat isn't on my head. to be able to reach into my purse and not have to take my mittens off first. it was a joy.

and even with work being frustrating, it cyalis levitra sales viagra very rewarding and a nice pace. it wasn't so busy that i was running off my feet, and having to rush through Cyalis levitra sales viagra : each patron Cyalis levitra sales viagra : because there was a line up at the desk - i was able to help each person quite thoroughly and completely, but quick enough that i didn't have a lot of time to drag between.

then i come home, watch pretty woman cyalis levitra sales viagra tv, and now i'm watching the american president. two of my favourite movies. and i'm Buy levitra us : working on my website (new pictures coming Cyalis levitra sales viagra : this afternoon) ...

but am curious to hear the news as i haven't heard it all day ... and what cyalis levitra sales viagra i hear? Buy levitra us : we're ready to go to war. i'm not ready to go to war. hence the 'imagine' picture on the front page today. it seemed fitting.

in the book i just finished reading "a veiled threat" there was a comment made about how after september 11th everyone kept saying about how the world will never be the same. her reaction was that the world should never be the same. there were so many Buy levitra us : injustices to women that are now finally starting to be straightened out and that it would be a tragedy to go back to how it was before september 11th. and i guess to get rid of the wrong that culminated into september 11th we need to go through some tough roads ... i'm just not sure i'm ready for it even though i seem to think, at the moment, that Something has to happen ... i'm just not sure it's war that has to happen.

imagine.

whew. the party is over.

waah! the party is over!

it's a relief and a bundle of emotions ... the party went really well and everyone was cyalis levitra sales viagra and complimenting me on how well and how smoothly everything was going ... and i felt like all i Buy levitra us, did was call a caterer and order a cake. and stress a lot *hee hee*

but now that it's over, it means that my supervisor (and good friend) is one step closer to leaving (he's moving to england ...) ... cyalis levitra sales viagra least i know where to spend my next holiday.

and now that i've done it once, i'm all set to do it again (please, don't anyone in my staff leave for at least a year!)

but seriously, the guests arrived, there was more than enough food, the cake arrived (football field sized as it was ... chocolate chocolate sheet cake for 60 delivered by 1 guy on a city bus. picture that!) ... the food was lovely, the wine was lovely, the people levitra line lovely, it was a smashing good time all around.

i came home, collapsed into a deep sleep for a few hours, cyalis levitra sales viagra then moved into a very light sleep because i knew that i had to get up early to head to new jersey for levitra line crop for a cure in new jersey ... so i was awake every 45 minutes checking the time to be sure i didn't oversleep. sigh. i hope there is a starbucks in penn station.

ah but there is a massage center at the crop, and i'm going to be first on that list, you can just bet on it.

crop for a cure, you say? it's a 10 Buy levitra us, hour scrapbooking adventure with the goal of fundraising for breast cancer research. i'll let you know cyalis levitra sales viagra it goes. i went last year and had a great time ... can't wait for today.

stayed at work until 9 last night. had to tidy my office. i want my office to look pretty for the party tonight.

it only took 1 hour to get all the stuff out. not Cyalis levitra sales viagra, too bad. two trucks (book trucks) worth of 'stuff' ... i stashed it all in closets around the branch.

as i was doing so, i was completely aware of the fact that i would, sometime, have to cyalis levitra sales viagra through it all and throw some stuff out. cyalis levitra sales viagra for the moment, my office is beautiful and clean and empty.

i also cyalis levitra sales viagra how much better i was feeling cyalis levitra sales viagra i was cleaning it all away. as i walked to the subway, it began to cyalis levitra sales viagra on me that my mental state of mind is becoming quite dependent on the clutter around me. i never thought of myself as Buy levitra us, a mental clutter / physical clutter type of Cyalis levitra sales viagra : person ... i'm not a neat freak, nor have i ever been, so this is quite surprising to me. but through the cleaning of my apartment, and now my office, i'm realizing that it's all about the mental clutter.

then i realized how i had just done exactly the same thing as i had done in my apartment. taken all the stuff and jammed it into closets (or storage units, as the case is in my apartment). out of Cyalis levitra sales viagra : sight, out of mind.

did i do this as a child? yes. boxes in levitra line basement. all neatly labelled but full of stuff i didn't need anymore but couldn't throw out. i believe mom and dad are still moving cyalis levitra sales viagra of those boxes around from spot to spot in the basement. i always go through and throw some stuff out when i go home.

i guess it's time to start throwing out now ... my storage unit is full and the closets at work are now totally full.

i'll start that next week. once i catch up from the party.

Thursday, March 13, 2003

whew. i can't believe it's thursday night already.

i know that i keep saying that time flies ... but this past month has really disappeared.

it was a month ago when my supervisor (and good friend) sat me down Buy levitra us : in my office. i really thought that i was going to get in trouble for a somewhat inappropriate email i sent (turned out it either wasn't inappropriate, Cyalis levitra sales viagra - or no one cared because i never cyalis levitra sales viagra about it again)

so he sat me down, i was feeling mildly levitra line and he asked me what i was doing on march 14. i told him that i didn't even know what i was doing tomorrow ... i had no idea what i was doing march 14th ... why?

because he wants me to host his going away party.

"you're not" i said
"i am" he said

i smiled. cyalis levitra sales viagra i was happy for him. i asked him if he was getting back at me for making him host the retirement party last winter that i should have organized but couldn't because i was too busy being deported. he laughed.

i feel like that was yesterday. and the Buy levitra us - party is tomorrow.

i'm only panicking a little. i started panicking when i got the caterer on the phone cyalis levitra sales viagra he said 'let me check my calendar and see if i'm free ...' what?!? it never even occured to me that he might not be free! ah he's free. whew.

then the price of the food was rated on 75 cyalis levitra sales viagra no worries about that now. then last week the rsvp list was at 26 (eek!) then yesterday it hit 75 and today 80. oh my god! what do i tell the caterer? do i say 75, or 80? i made emergency phone calls ... and was told to say high 60s! agh!

then i got the bill. Cyalis levitra sales viagra : $1500?!? and he takes cash or cheque ... cash? it takes 10 days to cash everyone's cheques ... do i have enough cash in the bank?? and what about tips? do i tip every staff? how much? 15%? on $1500?

a cake! oh my god i totally forgot about a cake! took two days to hunt one down, and when i finally ordered it i forgot to pay cyalis levitra sales viagra it on credit card on the phone and then i forgot to confirm it today so now i'm not sure if it's even being delivered and if it is i forgot to leave money at the branch for it ... so if the cake doesn't arrive or whatever, we'll all run up and down broadway buying Cyalis levitra sales viagra - desserts ...

then last night someone asks me 'is the caterer Buy levitra us - bringing paper plates and such?' oh my god! i thought so, but it's 9 pm now and i'm not sure and Why Didn't You Ask Me That Last Week?

then i did some cyalis levitra sales viagra ... if everyone who hasn't paid does come, then it will all be fine. if not, i'll be $600 short for the caterer.

i told him that he was going to be getting a blank 'gift' tomorrow ... i can't afford to go buy the levitra line cheque until i find out if i have any money left.

i have to tell you, when this is all said and done, the party will be fabulous. everyone will have a good time, and no one will know my stresses (except those who i have called in panic this past week) ...

and when i'm done, i'll be ready to plan a wedding. with a guest cyalis levitra sales viagra of 80 people, i feel like that's what this is ... quite honestly, it couldn't that much harder. and i did this in less than a month.

imagine what i could do with a year.

i can't believe Buy levitra us - it was only a month ago that i had that meeting with my supervisor. and tomorrow is the 14th.
and life moves on.

ok ... it's sunday and i'm at work.

for the most part it's been pretty quiet. karmactically Buy levitra us : speaking (is that a word?) it's been ref only day today. every person who has had what has seemed like a reasonable question has turned into a 'we only have that levitra line reference' answer. argh.

i'm levitra line to start redesigning my web page. i know, i've been saying Buy levitra us : that for a long time. 1 year, to Cyalis levitra sales viagra : be exact (and i know that because i just renewed my web address license, and will renew my host soon) but i mean it this time. it's become rather out of control and pretty ugly, so it's time for a new look.

so when i haven't been helping the youth of new york find the perfect book to read, i've been surfing to look at people's web pages for inspiration.

i stumbled upon this site and was pretty impressed. heck, it's all purple (my fave!) and i was ready to 'borrow' it as is ... but the really depressing thing was when i started clicking on the links in the 'people who matter' area ... just about each and everyone of those pages are awesome too.

so Cyalis levitra sales viagra, i saw lots of things i want to steal. but when cyalis levitra sales viagra comes down to it, it's all about me and who i am and having my page reflect me.

hopefully i'll be Cyalis levitra sales viagra, able to figure out what to do to make it all work.

keep your eyes open ... you'll be in for a big surprise Cyalis levitra sales viagra - (i should be saying keep your fingers crossed ...)

Saturday, Cyalis levitra sales viagra, March 08, 2003

it was passport day in our family the other day.

i had a doctor's appointment booked to have my forms signed, as my passport expires soon and if it expires it will nullify my visa thereby opening myself up for deportation again. i prefer to keep that experience down to once per year, if possible. so off i went.

got the forms signed, pictures too.

hopped into the car with my sister where we drove to her pharmacy where her pharmacist signed her paperwork. i had no idea she was having cyalis levitra sales viagra done too.

then we Buy levitra us, headed off to her local mailboxes etc. type store (it wasn't a mailboxes etc. i don't want to get them in trouble. it was a mailboxes etc. Type store *hee hee*) there, he wanted $45 to FedEx each envelope to canada.

i acted in a way which is most unlike me ... ok maybe it was totally like me. anyway, cyalis levitra sales viagra said '$45! last time i did this it was only $20!" but then i acknowledged that he was using UPS and perhaps FedEx was cheaper. he informed me that FedEx would have been $47. he tried to tell me that it was so cheap last time because i did it 5 years ago and he tried to quote percentage increases which would explain that amount of Cyalis levitra sales viagra : an increase. i didn't buy it.

so i took my envelope, and my sister's, and when i returned to the city i headed straight over to the nearest FedEx office.

$22.75 tax included.

good deal.

ok so then i get home and call my dad. 'whatcha doin?' i ask him. 'filling out my passport application' he replies.
he had no idea what we had been up to all day. it was pretty weird.

so then the next day Cyalis levitra sales viagra, i speak with mom and asked her why she wasn't filling one out, too. 'oh i did' she says. 'your father just Buy levitra us, didn't tell you that i had'.

we've been trying to get them to get passports forever now that they cross the border so often. Cyalis levitra sales viagra : mom with her driver's licence as i.d. and dad with his citizenship card with an issue date of N/A. what's that? not applicable? that's not an answer to the question 'issue date'.

so it was passport day in our family. i like it cyalis levitra sales viagra we all stick together.

i don't understand ...

the full moon cyalis levitra sales viagra a whole 2 weeks ago, and yet the aftermath goes on and on and on ...

i honestly haven't had 1 minute to sit down and blog. and it's driving me crazy.

between meetings, and cyalis levitra sales viagra and schedules, and my supervisor leaving (he's moving to england) and my having to plan a going-away party for him in 4 weeks or less (less! it was definitely less!) i'm going out of my mind.

but levitra line want you all to know ... the guilt is huge. Cyalis levitra sales viagra, i do feel guilt for not giving you all something new to read or look at each day. i'm on the bus or subway and wham! i realize that i haven't blogged in cyalis levitra sales viagra ... or it dawns on me that georgia had her birthday party last weekend and i haven't put the pictures up on the site yet ... and that it's Thursday already (ack! how did that happen??)

so i promise to be back. i really do appreciate you all.

and hopefully i'll be back before the next full moon.

cyalis levitra sales viagra

i can't believe how the past week flew by. work was so crazy i don't remember what happened. i didn't sit down at all for more than Cyalis levitra sales viagra : 5 minutes each afternoon. and i think i was there for 1 hour extra pretty much every day just to get the day's work done (and even that didn't work ... i could have stayed until 9 last night, but couldn't bear it).

it wasn't necessarily stressful ... just exceptionally busy. cyalis levitra sales viagra sure why ... the week before was the full moon, not last week...

i'll tell you one thing ... i slept like a rock last night. woke up early, but went to bed early too.

oh and an update on the crockpot cookery? the chili turned out great, everyone loved it, and there was enough leftover so that my freezer is full of little tupperware containers Cyalis levitra sales viagra : with one meal each inside. now i can just grab Cyalis levitra sales viagra - lunch and run out the door to work. cool.

i wonder what i'll tackle next for Cyalis levitra sales viagra : the crockpot? if i follow my tradition, it won't be until next Buy levitra us - february that i try. i think i'll try to break tradition and try something sooner. there is something Cyalis levitra sales viagra, quite appealing about having lunch choices in the freezer ready to go.

i'm going to try not to Cyalis levitra sales viagra - think this weekend. my brain needs a rest for next week.
