:(

march is so far away! picking secret santas now seems like a good idea. we need to do it soon, though. i'm going to colombia soon and running out of shopping days quickly. . .

nush, i can't believe you haven't booked every weekend in march! i think i'm free, too. i don't know, i can't think that far ahead.

my happiness for the day: our company just installed mozilla in our computers! now i don't have to use internet explorer anymore. yay! i'm such a dork. but hey, it's easy to get excited about pretty much anything after you've spent a few hours waiting in the hospital's emergency room . . .jackie's been pretty sick the past couple of days. tuesday night she vomited blood, so she freaked out and went to the emergency room. i met her there -- they gave her an iv and some medicine to soothe her stomach, and they ran a bunch of tests. everything looked normal. the doctor said she probably has gastritis and so they gave her some prescriptions, told her to call her regular doctor to schedule an endoscopy, and they sent her home. then yesterday afternoon she started vomiting again. i left work early and met her at the hospital. this time she was there for like 6 hours. . .same drill as tuesday: they gave her an iv and some medicine, did more tests, again said that everything seems normal. the doctor thinks she has a stomach virus, so that with the gastritis probably aggravated her stomach and caused the bleeding. . .anyway, they sent her home. her mom flew in from miami last night and is with her now. she'd planned this trip over a month ago, so the timing was really fortunate -- it sucks to be alone when you're sick.

i'm exhausted now, though. the past couple of days have been really draining. and i don't know if i'm just tired or if i might be getting sick, but i'm not feeling so hot myself. my head feels so heavy. . . i'm so glad it's thursday.
