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 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 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! […]
In which my stress level? Is a little high. Today I opened a spreadsheet and listed all our bills in it. We already need more than I’ll even make this month, and it’s only the 2nd. Let me tell you, it gets pretty scary when your spouse is unfortunately unemployed more than he’s employed over […]
In which IT’S ALIVE. And weather. And I’m driving the Big Black Truck. The conjunctivitis in my right eye is all cleared up now. However, the condition has moved to my left eye. So I’m still wearing my glasses, which totally sucks. And not in a good way. The weather last night was awesome. When […]
In which there is sex, band practice, pizza, napping, cheese dreams, swimming, tanning, and a very flat goddamned tire. The day after our impromptu BBQ/wedding anniversary, I slept in. (All that vodka, yo.) Got up, put on a bikini. It was hot, windy, blustery. Pushing ninety degrees. I wandered up to the pond. Put my […]
In which a tragedy is averted by the judicious application of a skirt. This baby just now got caught between the panes of one of the windows in my home office and fluttered for awhile. I lowered the window as much as I could, hoping it would be able to get out, but it couldn’t. […]
In which I give you entirely TMI about my uterus, and wonder about modern life’s impact on health. When I’m feeling shitty, I often compare myself to an imaginary peasant ancestress to give myself some perspective. I think about the crap she’d have had to suffer through in her life, all without days off or […]
