Nora, I'm glad your weekend went well.

It's been a banner year for New Englanders--with the Sox and the Pats winning and not having to worry about the Bruins losing (sorry Matt).

We had 10 straight hours of sleep with no wake-ups! And the house payment is paid and we have grocery money. This makes for a better-than-average Monday.

Well, folks are waking up. I guess that means it's time for me to get a few hours of sleep.

So, the Puppy Bowl really was just puppies in a "football" decorated small room?

Jess! The newly painted rooms look great!

Timelies. We dropped the rent off last night, about to go put my paycheck in the bank, and then we'll have grocery money too! We may even go grocery shopping after we stop at the bank. It's 45 degrees here, and supposed to get up to 49, so we're definitely going to stop at the park for a bit. Yay.

Thanks guys. I think he had more fun running through Grandpa's house, screaming at the top of his lungs with his cousins than he did eating cake, but that's very cool. Okay, Grandpa didn't think so, but that's okay. He'll get over it.

Nora, so glad it went well and everyone had a good time. I hope your day is easy and you get to go home and rest tonight.

Vw, I can't take the suspense anymore. Did you finish your take home test?

We will have grocery money on Thursday. All the bills are paid though, including such an overpayment (!!!) on the oil bill, that we only owe $40.00 on the last drop.

However, we have very little in the way of groceries. I hope everyone's ready for peanut butter. *g*

Timelies.

My company is expecting me to be able to assemble fifty hours worth of labor from 9 pm to 2 am on a Tuesday. They do realize that I'm staffed almost entirely by college kids and moms, right? Most people, not so much with the wanting to do labor-intensive work in the middle of a school night.

Le sigh. But, go Pats!

Gronklies all!

I'm at work, I need caffeine, and it is quiet around the office. Must be Monday. My one social achievement of the weekend was going to dinner with friends on Saturday, then watching Sky Captain. Other than that, I was pretty hermitty. On the plus side, I finished my antibiotic run for the sinus infection and although I still have a little bit of a scratchy throat, I seem to have mostly bounced back. At last.

Vw, I can't take the suspense anymore. Did you finish your take home test?

Not quite yet. I've got 2.5 questions to finish answering. I'm actually working on it right now (I've got a two-hour break at school), and hope to finish it before my next class...or at least shortly after getting home from classes today. I can e-mail it to the prof, and I REALLY want to/need to do that today. It'll feel so good to have it done!

Ok...down to two questions to answer. Yay!

argh. I'd like something just to go smoothly. But since it involves a cell phone company, it probably won't.

Stupid Cingular! (though they still have a chance to redeem themselves)
