Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
playdates get unnecessarily complicated, I agree. Then again, I can't seem to manage to make dates to see my friends either. Which makes me sad, but I have only my own lameness to blame there.
I'm starting to find the stress of always working on the house wearing. We've been painting the kitchen, and right now we're in the no access period. And I want coffee! And I can't hang with eating every meal out anymore!
ew ew ew ew - my first clementines of the season and the first one I peel had wormy things in it. The second one was bug free - hopefully the rest of the box is ok.
still no call from the friend, poor mac he is getting so frustrated.
ARGH. The water just got turned off in our building. No warning from whoever's having plumbing work done in their building. NOT COOL PEOPLE.
At least I wasn't in the middle of a shower. The laundry that's half done will just have to wait, I guess. And we have hand sanitizer for changing diapers. But still.
The snow has started coming down.
I don't really do playdates. I've never had much luck with them. I may have to bite the bullet, though, since I'm in a new place and don't have many other ways to meet new people.
brenda -- I thought 'the dog's breakfast" referred to the canine tendency to eat their own vomit, dubiously dead or inedible things, et cetera (white-fonted for the squeamish!).
I'm currently on lunch break from the 8 hour programming class, definitely not a whoo-hoo day.
After yesterday evening's grim debt-discussion Natter, I sat down this morning with the budget and the three high-interest credit cards we've fucked ourselves over with during the last year, called Working Assets, and managed to juggle everything onto a single card with a 0% interest rate until 1/09 -- the minimum payment isn't high enough for us to eliminate the debt over the next year, but we'll be able to make all the payments, at no interest, and still be able to afford trivial things like food and utilities without having to run up any more card debt. Goodbye, 27.9% card of death.

Yay, JZ!
I need to get out of the house. I have plenty of errands to run. But somehow, I stayed in my pajamas until 12:30.
Yay, JZ!
My apartment is being invaded by ginormous dust bunnies, but I'm too lazy to do anything about it.
YAY JZ!
Tom, a quick vacuum and it will all be over.
Mac's friend is finally here. YAY!
I have made mashed potatoes and turnip and the turnip has a somethingness that is not getting covered up with butter, sour cream, or garlic. ideas?
I need to bite the bullet and get all of the remaining Christmas ordered online today.
