swamped, and soggy

no, i'm not describing the latest hurricane damage... i'm talking about work and my sinuses.

i seem to be being attacked by the great goldenrod/ragweed tag-team. and man do i feel icky. on the good side, though, we had a fabulous lunch yesterday at GV Kaffe Haus, and dinner last night with Juice and his long-lost sister Erica at the Japanese Oriental. The food was good and company was better, and, our server was a shy Polish girl.

I remarked to Nala that Erica and Juice share the dry delivery of humor and also both seem to be well-traveled. I have to say, it was good to meet her, and affirm my thinking that the Juice-clan all turned out ok. The other Juice-sibling, Nicky, is in town, too, relatively speaking, visiting in-laws in Athens, under not-so-good circumstances (mom-in-law just had heart-cath/stint surgery) but should soon arrive in Cowtown to actually have a nice visit here.

i'm still oh-so-tired, but now am blaming the congestion.

the work is still stressful, and difficult. this week i'm learning all about network load balancing. FUN. But now, right this minute, I got an email from a manager here telling me I was going to have to work on a project that was previously dropped because it would take too much time.

and, all week, in my "free time", I'm supposed to be migrating the alumni site to Dreamhost.
