wonders when Hec stopped watching Sealab 2021

A while back. About the same time I stopped watching Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Three more hours here at work before I'm outta here until Jan 8th...

And three hours closer to when you'll be permanently on the East Coast.

Suzi, I will be more than happy to come to your office and explain (in my very best and loudest cheerleader's voice) in excruciating detail how exactly the surgeon put my sister's finger back together again. Complete with spurting blood vessel sound effects.

And three hours closer to when you'll be permanently on the East Coast.

We're going to VA tomorrow for a week, and we'll head up to Takoma Park on Thursday next week to sign our lease!

Ooooh, good idea Maria.

I need last minute prezzie advice. My aunt from Germany is visiting and we will be seeing her Christmas eve. I need to come up with a special something for her. I don't want it to be something big she has to lug home, and can't be food cause she is very picky and health conscious, so I don't wanna screw up there. She is a seamstress and embroiderer and crocheter....so I'm thinking of hitting the craft store to see what sparks. But I've no idea what she has or what she would like. Gah. Maybe I should just find a pretty broach.

Ow, who put that ceiling there?

I'm just a bit excited about all of this. I'm not sure if you could tell.

Hmph, I'm only getting Christmas Day. Odds are I'm working New Year's Day. It better be quiet this week, except we put out an update a coupld of days ago and it's causing the usual conflicts. Bah.

Excellent! We're looking forward to hearing from the DCistas about their favorite places to eat, hike, shop, etc. Yay for new experiences!

eta: connie, I'll be spending a week of that packing/sorting/throwing things out in anticipation of our move. Not exactly a vacation at the beach.

Hey Suzi, Erubiel Durazo has been invited to spring training with the A's.

I did hear that Hec. Not sure how I feel about it yet. Should be interesting - and I love shouting his first name, rolling that rrrrrrrrrrrr.

I DO NOT want to be here...but can't leave until my father drops off CJ. He has had CJ since Wednesday. Was originally supposed to be just a one night stay, so I have no clue what the boy is wearing. No idea if anyone over there either bought him new unders or washed what he had or if anyone even thought about it. I'm trying not to.

Just (well "just" in the sense of as quickly as I can be here when my computer takes FOREVER to get to b.org) back from running errands. I got caught in the rain on my way to the bank, discovered that I had lost a glove somewhere but the folks at the bank gave me an extra umbrella (!!) and I went on my way - to the yarn shop where I bought yarn and needles to make a new scarf and then to lunch.

I stopped off at Walgreens on the way back, decided I was much too tired to carry back another container of catlitter -- will make do with what I have -- and am thoroughly exhausted.

Now, I must pack, get the cats ready for me to be gone and, uh, wait for my ride.

(I also forgot to buy wrapping paper -- I'm hoping I can get some tomorrow.)

And I phoned my landlord and guess what? She doesn't know when they're coming to install the electric heaters. But it will be baseboard heat. Which means whenever they come I have to have stuff cleared away from the baseboards. Sigh.

She thinks - next week at earliest.

(Why this and not replacing the boiler? Probably because they really, really want to make this building all electrically heated.)
