A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

Now tagless for your comfort.

A bit of exam-ma would be greatly appreciated for DH today. He's taking what could very well be his final actuarial exam.

Think "6"--the actuaries will know what that means.

It's kind of last minute, but I will be in D.C. until Wednesday. If anyone wants to try to get together, we can talk about it in F2F.

move out and draw fire

I've been hoarding a shard of job-ma for lo these many months, but I can now release it to other Buffistas. I have a contract, and it's a good one! I start work on Monday!

If I only had a brain...

I'm off to the optometrist to try to figure out why my focus keeps getting worse. If he can't figure out an answer, I'm going to press for an urgent opthalmogist rec.

Eye-ma, please.

So apparently the eyes aren't any worse than they were Wednesday, and there's no need to see an opthalmogist because there's no sign of anything medically wrong.

If anyone in the Burbank area knows of a decent place to live that doesn't mind cats and has at least a little green--not on a main street if at all possible--email would be appreciated. Otherwise I'm starting my Westside Rentals search tonight. I have less than a month to find a new home and move.

Coding and Sleeping

KCistas (Quester and Erin as far as I know). I might be able to set you up with a free computer if you need one. Celeron 400MHz, so nothing fancy, but if you need one e-mail my profile address and I'll see if I can get one.

I was particularly amused that before the storm my roof was mildewed and in need of a good pressure cleaning. After the storm all shiny white. The sustained winds in my city were 90ish with gusts to about 120. I should have taken more pictures, but I was caught up in the drama at the time.

Enjoy.
