NewDaedalus

I survived my 11-hour day today, even though when I woke up I was really feeling "off." I'm a little bummed because one of my visits cancelled, and my assessment didn't last nearly as long as I wanted it to, so my big 8 hour productivity is instead more like 6.5. Poo. I like being the Productivity Queen.

When the weather is nice I don't really mind driving around, but it's really inconvenient when you have to go to the bathroom. There are some families whose bathrooms you just don't want to pee in, so then I have to run back to work or back home or something so I can relieve myself. More than you wanted to know, I know. I love to pee.

The other day I told Jen that I ate Daedalus, and that I went out and got a replacement cat that looked just like Daedalus. For the last couple of days I've been referring to him as "NewDaedalus." I crack myself up!

I wonder what NewDaedalus is doing right now.

OldDaedalus lives in my belly. Now he and I are one.

Eventually you'll have to poo Daedalus, right?
That'll be quite painful I think. Yesyesyes.

I miss OldDaedalus
...but I think NewDaedalus is superfantastic too.

does he miss me? or just Ralf?

she better not have to poop Daedalus at a client's home!

Dude, no joke!

I'm never going to poo OldDaedalus - he is going to remain a part of me forever!

NewDaedalus says he loves you very much. And he wants to get to know you. And Ralf, of course, misses you terribly.

"NewDaedalus" sounds very sci-fi. Like one of those planets futurepeople colonize and name after some important town, region or concept from their far-flung past.

"Welcome to NewDaedalus, Captain. I am Administrator Cronin. I hope your crew enjoys their shore leave on our little paradise planet. We live an idyllic life here, with no deep, dark secrets that should concern you. Not a one of us is a salt-sucking vampire or soul-stealing succubus, neither does the entire population consist of baby-eating, cannibalistic mutant freakazoids. There aren't any ravenous beasts living in the peaceful meadows and glades that surround our city, nor is there a weapons factory hidden deep beneath the planet's surface. If you've heard any unpleasant rumors that the colony was wiped out by a plague eons ago and we are merely the restless spirits of long-gone people who died horrible, agonizing deaths, well... that's just silly. Can I interest you in an unpoisoned drink that is refreshing and flavorful and not laces with hallucinogenic mind-control drugs?"

Sometimes you scare me a little bit. :)

Like the tingling sensation one gets when Selsun Blue is applied, the mildly-creeped-out feeling means it's working!

Hee! It sure is!

is NewDaedalus just as lazy?

[identity profile] judecorp.livejournal.com 2005-08-24 12:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I think maybe a little lazier.

Eventually you will succumb to the pressure and bring back Classic Deadalus, and New Daedalus will be a forgotten punch line. Little will anyone recall that Classic Daedalus isn't the same as DeadDaedalus.

Crystal Daedalus!!

Totally off-topic, but I ran across this and thought of you for some reason. Why? Smurf if I know.

It's so cute when people think of me. I wonder if I'll be "that smurf girl" forever... fine by me!

Thanks!

I thought it was "that hawt smurf girl," but maybe I'm thinking of someone else.
