YES!!! They turned the request down!
At least that’s one thing that went right today. Doesn’t exactly balance the scales with what went wrong, but I’ll take my victories where I can.

Boxing myself in.
Still avoiding the forum that was getting me so bent out of shape. Found another place to post, where some of the people from the old forum visit once in a while. Nothing there to trigger my anger, nothing to trigger tears, nothing to turn me into an ogre, unfit to be company to anyone….
Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry.
I actually got some solid blocks of sleep last night. First in a long time, and it felt good. I also have started a very productive cough. It eases my lungs to rid themselves of some of this junk, but I’ve done something to the muscles on my right side, just under the rib cage….
National Geographic?
I just had what had to be the weirdest phone call I’ve ever gotten professionally. A representative from National Geographic called to ask if they could film Temple Grandin when she visited our company this coming Monday. They are doing a special on autism, and are profiling her as an example of a successful autistic…

my mother’s 80th birthday. I’m sitting here with my first cup of tea of the day, musing on this. It’s a strange thing, the remembrance of the birthday for one who has died. There’s still cause for celebration, but I’m not sure the proper form the celebration should take. Going to the cemetary with a…
How I figured it out.
AQuietEvening wanted to know how I found out who gave the Doubleday book club my email address. It was actually due to the misspelling of my name. I knew I’d seen that particular misspelling somewhere before, but couldn’t place it. When I got home Friday, I started sorting my bills, getting things ready to be…
Where do we go from here?
The weekend brought with it a modicum of reasurrance. The Socialist was attentive and solicitous, and I know he was trying to meet me far more than halfway on things. I’m still not sleeping, and this is not making me much fun to be around at the moment. I’d love to know why it is…

I was going to say: That paybacks a ‘bitch’ with that ‘SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL’ # *lol* but I can see your feeling nervous…soooo….deep breathe Salamander!! You’ll be fine…whatever the outcome!
; )
Holy Moley! I’m going to see you on a NG special??? Wow!
Don’t be afraid. She’ll be the one the camera is pointing at. IF they get filming approval, which I suspect they won’t.
you’re going to be an action adventure star???? movie over bruce willis….here comes the salamander!!!
He he he. Salamander’s almost famous. *Hands you her backbag* Sign that? 😀
uh, how were you supposed to know k…..especially when the secretary directed you to x, g, f, and j?
Yikes. :/ I’m sorry. I hope that it passes uneventfully and quickly, and with no unpleasant hang-over with boss.
WHEW!
Poor Sal!
Is it time to go home yet?
You had 2 small victories…..
Caught myself singing ‘It’s a Small World’ at about 3:45 p.m.

Good to hear they turned it down! I was about to suggest you contact a local theater group and hire someone to play you!
(Playing the part of Salamander is…..)

That is really neat! I can’t decide whether to be nervous for you or thrilled. Hey, at least if National Geographic films you with her, you won’t have the embarrassment of asking her if you can set up a camera and record a tape for yourself. :o)~
You know, you really should introduce National Geographic to your pets. They could do an entire special on them!
