Oct. 11: Post uno

I guess I’m not the only one who wishes I spent my weekend doing something other than weeping about how little sleep I’m getting and how much pain I’m in. For reals, I’m about to ruin whatever internal organ gets ruined by taking too much ibuprofen. I’m trying not to take drugs any more often than I absolutely have to, but I need to get at least a little bit of sleep and I can’t sleep if I’m sobbing. I haven’t been blogging because I don’t want every post to be all complain-y. At this rate I’m going to need to change the name from Stuff Jen Says to All Whining, All the Time—Now with More Whining, OMG So Much of the Whining!

For the past hour I looked for something I could post, a link to a funny thing or even a meme. No luck. Pfft.

Here’s a photo my FB friend Corinne posted the other day. I think it’s awesome.

Sorry, Loveliest Lori. I tried. You’re getting quantity, not quality, at Stuff Jen Says today.

June 30: Furry bitch slap

Next time you don’t feel like going to work, here’s a good excuse to try: “I can’t come in today because I was attacked by a bear on my front porch last night.”

One of the women I work with at the hospital used that one today. If it wasn’t a real excuse, at least she followed through with it to the end; she got Fish & Wildlife involved, and a bunch of the local media came out to interview her. (Warning: a lot of thigh follows)

I don’t know… those bear claw marks look awfully real to me. I think she might be telling the truth. And my feeling is that if someone puts a picture of your leg all over the Internet, you’ve earned sympathy right there.

Best wishes, Dora Sue, for a recuperation that doesn’t involve any bears seeking revenge on the big mouth who tattled on their buddy.
