I spent an hour or so of Sunday morning convinced that it was really Monday, and that I had missed the whole getting up early for the Monday morning meeting thing I was supposed to do. I had come up with a number of good excuses about why I missed it before I realized I could just go back to sleep and not care.

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.
Cory Doctorow is a science fiction writer, and also very active against copyright extremism. This arouses a great deal of hostility against Cory among copyright extremists.
thanks for all the comments on my shiny hair! i was unsure about the length, but i think i'm coming to really, really like it. i'm using the flat iron to flip the ends up and that's fun.
Sophia your story gave me a good giggle. i've done the getting up at weird hours and start getting ready for work/school, but never made it out of the house before i realized what was going on. i love that you had reasonable explanations for things that could've tipped you off. hilarious.
IOmememeN i think my sister and i have finally found a house. it's in a different area than where we were looking, but it's still not far from the rest of the family. so...*fingers crossed*.
Kat--do you still want the TV?
ita, yes! Absolutely! It's just now a matter of scheduling.
Burrell! Also scheduling!
It warmed up to 30 degrees. Now Noodle and I have taken our naps (I love vacation) and he's lying beneath the christmas tree since the tree's lights are endlessly amusing.
I am on strike. I refuse to leave the house today. Yesterday, we went to a sort of open house thing where there were: 3 grandma aged women, 1 grandpa aged man, 5 me-aged women (more or less), 2 me-aged men, 2 babies and 2 puppies. After, we had dinner at K's dad's place where there 5 couples, a six-year-old and Noah. Then we opened gifts for over an hour. No wonder he's melting down today. Too much!
Will there be under the Xmas tree pictures?
(Pleeeeease?)
yep. there are very few noah moments undocumented.
I'm on strike too.
Actually, I am working. Hurts too much to leave the house, but I can still get stuff done. Have to. Have a hard deadline for Wednesday morning.
Upshot of the insurance shenanigans of this morning? Well, the one hospital has finally been paid off by insurance as of the end of last month, for bills that go back as far as May. The other people weren't even supposed to be billing me at all, but the hospital had never forwarded them my insurance information--hence I was in collections.
Stupid fucks. It's not like I was having *fun* or anything. Why do they have to magnify the stress?
oh ita. I am so sorry. that totally sucks.
I am so in love with that photo, Kat! Seriously, I just got all weepy eyed.
The holidays make me a mushy-faced mess.
Right now I wish I had Kat's ability to DO THINGS, especially seeing as how she's on strike right now and not using it. Me? I need it.
