Congrats, sj!

I went to trapeze school again today. I had some minor confidence problems about my upper body strength, so I spent most of the time working on stuff on the ground and on the low stationary trap. We're going back next week, though, so I'm going to do a lot of pushups and stuff like that this week so that I'll feel better about it by then. (Seriously, if I thought about it logically, I've done the flying trap before, and I was OK on the stationary trap today, so I should have had no problem with flying trap today. But I kept getting onto the platform, grabbing the bar, and thinking "Yeah, no way I'm going to be able to keep this grip while swinging." I think I ended up psyching myself out by thinking about it too much. Next week, new day, fresh mind, no problem.)

Every time I clean the kitchen and leave, it mysteriously gets dirty and smelly by the time I return.

I found this out when I lived with guys in college. Funny thing is, same goes for two toddlers.

I think Daniel is statistically more likely to do the dishes than I am, here. But I might be more likely to get the stove and counters while I'm doing the dishes than he is. At least that's not the real challenge keeping this place up.

Heh. I don't want to be unfair; I know that they've been working their asses off all week. Still, the dishwasher is right there!

But it doesn't bother me that much. At least I know someone else is living in the house.

I've never lived in a dwelling with a dishwasher enough to get used to them. It's kind of sad, really.

I feel like I'm in a Monty Python bit when people extol the virtues.

Man:
I mean, you've been around a bit, you know, like, you've, uh... You've 'done it'...

Man:
What's it like?

It was worse when he did the voices.

And then he had to do it in his Pepper-pot Woman voice.

The headache troll is pounding a stake into the side of my head again. Anyone have troll-be-gone spray?

Today was a busy day. In here, and in my world. Finally caught up. Much ~ma to thems that needs it. Especially transplant~ma!! Yikes.

OK, forgot to tab the posts I wanted to reply to. O well. Long day. And I'm pleased to announce, the month of craziness with the final two weeks of hell (OK, maybe not that bad... but close!) is finally done!!! Asshat designers show is FINALLY OPEN! We were doing notes all the way up until 6:30 (thats 90 min before curtain...usually designers are done the day or two before). And he was nice enough to pass along a 750ml bottle of Absolute as a thanky gift. It sits next to the 500ml of Patrone... which is still unopened after 6 years. One of these days I'll drink more.

Home from the A's game and no word from the hospital. The last I heard was that mom was supposed to go into surgery around 6pm. Blarg.

A's lost, weather wasn't horrid, fireworks were pretty. One of my work buddies got DRUNK and her mouth ran much more than it should have. There will need to be some mopping up to do to settle some feathers. Unfortunately, K-Bug seems to be one of the ones upset. Frack.

So, sleep? I'm exhausted, but I was hoping to have gotten a call by now.

Now that is what I am talking about. I've been told I just need to try the Patrone Platinum... that said I do have... what do you call it... a budget?

I bought a 35 cent book on Amazon today. Needless to say the shipping itself is about 3.50, still I feel pleased.
