Allergies suck. Sorry about the sleep confusion. When do you have to work again?

On Wednesday. So I have tomorrow to get myself straightened out.
Do you have much going on in the daytime?

Mom is going to be here at 10 am. She is taking the day off to spend with me. She's probably going to want me to be awake, dressed, and functional. I also kind of wanted this place to look a little cleaner before she got here, but that will depend on whether I get anymore sleep tonight and what time Teacup Guy wakes up.

Well, rats. I hope there is some relaxing and resting in there somewhere.
In between these posts I have been looking for a list of links I saw today for good time wasters. Some I had seen before, others looked new.
And!!! I think I just remembered where I saw it!!!!

It's not all bad. Mom will likely buy me lunch and we might end up doing some shopping.

Oooh, hope you have lunch somewhere you really enjoy.
Found the links. Rotten.com [link] is not going to help us relax enough to rest.

And I suppose I am the last person on the internet to check out Fark.com [link] .
Going to try to sleep now. Rest well, sj.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
At last, my year-long plan has reached fruition! I... have a cleaner! And hopefully, soon I can add a clean apartment to the list.
Meanwhile, I have returned from a long weekend (Queen's Birthday) in Canberra, and Wallybee has now met all my immediate family. Older brother was friendly. His life continues to be chaotic. Sister and her hubby have themselves a very livable apartment. Nearly-two nephew has a favourite game, called "Run up and down the hall while stepdaddy is trying to sleep." From what little I saw, he's become quite adept at it. And he's started speaking, roughly 10% of which is composed of recognisable words.
Some gems from my sister over the weekend:
[while talking about missing school] "I went to school even when I was hung over! I had a good ethic."
[on not giving out our dad's personal details to potential stalkers] "I'm not complacent about psychopaths!"
[on making demands on our father] "I don't badger him! My conversations are more pointless!"
On the last day (lovely weather) we visited the aviary, where I had at least five lorikeets clambering over me at one stage, and a large Alexandrine parrot ate half a button from my coat. Cheeky bugger. But they had a golden pheasant! Pretty much the highlight of the trip.
And Sunday was the Wallybee's birthday. I hadn't realised, I knew it was in June but thought it was next weekend. I took her out for a rather fabulous meal in a restaurant with a view overlooking Canberra at night.
The upshot of it all is: my family likes her, and she thinks Canberra rocks. And if I win too comprehensively at Yinsh, she will leap over the board to try to throttle me. Good weekend!

BT, I'm glad things are going well with the Wallybee and that your family liked her.
I think I am going to try to grab one more hour of sleep.
