I have to be at work today. I'd rather not be. I think I'm pretty wothless today. Yesterday at 4:45pm the laptop I use for work died. So now I'm sitting at someone else's computer while I wait for my replacement laptop which will arrive sometime tomorrow. Despite the fact that I can't do my work, I have to stay here. Pretty annoying, but there you have it. It's a job and it pays the rent.

So, since I have nothing better to do, I think I will involve myself in eveyrone else's lives. What's everyone up to today?

I'm tired. Got a charlie horse in the middle of the night that made me sit bolt upright and scream. What's that all about? Today I'm walking with a charming limp.

Had rehearsal last night until 10:30, then stayed up too late reading a play that's being produced in November that I'm considering auditioning for. It's a great play, great role, but I'm slightly too young and if I were going to play it I'd need a really strong director and I'm not convinced this theater company has that to offer...

I made amazing turkey burgers for dinner last night, with garlic, basil, mint, cilantro, bread crumbs, lime juice, jalapeno, green onion, thai garlic chili paste, and topped with pickled cucumbers. Oh lord they were divine.

I get the keys to my new apartment tomorrow, and I'm really excited, even though I'm totally unprepared to move.

Yep, that's about all I got!

I've heard that charlie horse's can be caused by a lack of electrolytes. I had them pretty regularly when I was in basic training. Got to the point where I'd wake up just as one was about to begin. If I played my cards right I could make it go away. Not sure exactly what I did, but it had something with forcing my leg to do absolutely nothing from the knee down for a few minutes. Maybe it was pointing the foot straight downward. Pointing the foot so the toes came up was a sure way to let the charlie horse out in full force.
