In which I’m alone! Bread went to Iowa City with BoSe to visit Best Buy (for electronics) and Paul’s Discount (for clothes) and I am alone in the house for several hours! I’m so excited! So naturally I’m using the time to surf, do laundry, and scrub the bathroom. But still! In other news, they […]
In which we pull another all-nighter! Egad! After the class on Saturday, we went to BoSe’s house and lounged around. For hours. And hours. And hours. I surfed. Finally I got Luna settled as a pillow and Kaia settled as a footwarmer and the guys suddenly wanted to leave. We went to the Dead Cock […]
In which I go to school for software training. God, I love school. Today we had a training meeting for Xactimate, this software we’re using. It was not daunting. It’s complex software, certainly, but not rocket science. What I really want is a finished output document so I know what the goal is. We watched […]
In which my site’s beginning to generate email. Today I got two emails from random people who had found my site (I’m getting about 13k hits a month this year) and had something to say about what they’d read. The first was from a guy who also rocks himself to sleep, and wanted to know […]
In which I hate — with a passion incandescent — morning, morning people, and everything having to do with either. (Behold my bitchiness unfettered!) Bread invited me to go to bed with him at about ten last night. Since I’m a grown woman and dislike being put to bed like a child, I said I’d […]
In which the Universe is really funny. Ha, ha. We’ve accepted this gig in Indiana, right? Leaving the day after tomorrow, yeah? So naturally in the past three hours, Bread’s gotten two job offers. One for production building in Colorado for a good friend, another for a comprehensive remodel of a high-end house here in […]
In which I’m overheated, excited, a little stressed, and realizing how deep my poverty-consciousness goes. It’s unutterably hot and humid outside. I just had to walk to the bank and back because Bread’s got the big black truck. I’m all sticky. There’s a severe weather alert out for thunderstorms, and at lunchtime it turned dark […]
In which I’ll be in Indianapolis by Friday, for fuck’s sake. Somehow or another my husband managed to get us both hired to go to Indiana to do this contracting job; it’s basically a variant on insurance adjusting. It sounds like it’ll be ten hour days, six or seven days a week. Outside. In the […]
In which yes, as a matter of fact, I *will* shop for food. Truck needed some devices, so he called me for a day trip to Iowa City because if you wanna buy electronics? I’m yer bitch! We got out of town around noon, and AmmZon drove us straight to Best Buy like the speed […]
In which I learn a valuable lesson about stress and partnership, and a Friday that goes all the way into Saturday morning! After work last night, I went and had that nice cold cocktail. Yum. Then I jumped into the BBT and drove myself home, windows down, NPR on the radio. Friday! The weekend! Yes! […]
