Good afternoon, Lovely ones.

Glad to be back.

Wow, big change. What's attracting you to Portland? (But who will I stay with when I visit SD??)
Hey, BT! Standing right here! … Five days behind in reading messages … Almost never catching up enough to post … but still, we’ve met! … when I was living alone in a two-bedroom condo, not renting a room in someone else’s three-bedroom … still. I would totally clear a couch for you!
Cass, I will be sorry to see you leave. Even though we never seem to manage to hook up, I liked the idea of another Buffista being Right Here. We’ll have to get together for that ice cream I promised you, or a drink (alcoholic floats?) or a meal or something before you leave. K?
Happiest Slightly Belated Birthday to WindSparrow!
MG, new hair = HOTT
{{{Aimee}}} So sorry for your loss.
DCJ, this whole sitch is lame, but I’m glad you’ll have a little something to help you through to the other side.
((vw)) ouch. Good luck with that.
So, closet update. I still can not really afford to have ALL my clothes clean. There is not quite enough room. But since when is it a good idea to have all the laundry done anyway? I should always save some in case of a day when I don't want to do anything.
ION, twiced baked potatoes are really good. And if I make them properly - half a potato ( which is all I should eat anyway ) is enough. ham, spinach, cheese ... yum.
and my old computer has no cables attached to it. and it will be easier with two people. So DH can try without me, or he can wait until I get home.
Now I have to do math. Yick.

Good plan, beth. My own closet situation requires that clean clothes folded on top of the dryer is a legitimate storage facility until the following week, when I move those back to the closets and re-start the cycle with the new dirty clothes.
Now I have to do math. Yick.
On the first day of school? Lame.
Be sure to reward yourself with hot chocolate (or cold, you make the call) for being such a diligent go getter!
GNAHHHHH!
I just drove for six hours through a ton of really icky fog. I'm in Bumblefuck, West Virginia, now.
Or maybe that's spelled "Bluefield". Whatever.
What's worse is that tomorrow, I work for several hours, and then have to drive BACK. BLEAH.
And I forgot my toiletry kit. It's sitting at home. Doh. I can ask the hotel for a toothbrush (it'll be a weird disposable one). But still. Annoying.
My condolences, Aimée.
Daniel, I'm very glad to hear that at least the Unemployment folk were sane.

Yeah, I would like that. Rum floats! (I don't drink rum usually but it seems the ideal float booze.)
And yeesh, I hate forgetting my toothbrush. It's why I have one stashed at my parent's, a few friends, in my travel bag, in my car ... just to be sure.
Normally I'm all with it, what with all the travelling. Have my little bag of toiletries, all duplicating what I normally use at home, in smaller jars and bottles.
Today, though, because I wasn't flying anywhere, just driving, and only staying one day? I was really half-assed about everything. Grr. Argh.
There were people I was going to say "I HUG YOU!" to, but now I don't remember specifics. So I hug you ALL! (I typed that "I *huge* you all", which probably isn't somethign most of you would enjoy...)
