My landlord is doing something to the upstairs apartment. Well, it stinks of paint thinner. My throat is burning.
I hate this.

I bought popcorn in bulk somewhere fairly recently. Probably Raley's. Which probably doesn't help Jesse.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ah well. I'm sure the bigger supermarket will have it; it's just not as convenient for me!
My life is hard.

I love to make popcorn in my big stockpot with oil at the bottom of the pot and just shaking it all the time until the popping stops. Best-tasting popcorn evah!

can you get out for a couple of hours? So you don't get a headache?

That's how I like it, too, Kathy. Lots of corn oil.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Ugh. I thought I was getting over the flu. The last couple of days I felt much better. Today I'm shivery and lightheaded and have no appetite.

Ugh. (total xpost on the double ugh) I'm back from baseball practice. Only six kids out of twelve showed up, so I wound up throwing a ton of batting practice. I probably threw 45 pitches per kid, except for Cole who I threw 60 to. (Cole is a batting practice slut, but it's tough to decline his enthusiasm.)
As a reward for throwing all that batting practice Cole showed his gratitude by hitting a hard liner off my big toe which (whitefonted for the squeamish) ripped my toenail down one side. It was bloody and throbbing.
Also, JZ has a cold and sore throat and the baby is fussy and Emmett had a bad attitude at practice.
However, I do have Orville Redenbacher popcorn so maybe that's what we'll have tonight.
eta: And a mouse just ran under the couch.

Euagh!! That last thing really would freak me out, Hec!!
I have acquired mucinex and cough drops and tea and honey, and comfort food (mac and cheese, at the moment....may try and get pho later). Want crazy feeling in my chest to go away.

We had the landlady set traps a month or so ago and they went away for a while but now they're back and getting bolder.
So I'm hobbling down to the hardware store to get some sticky traps. (Can't really have snappy traps in the same house with a toddler and frankly I don't like to hear that sound going off in the night.)
