Ok. Here you go, Hil.

They need some serious dusting, which I would do before sending them. They've been in a box for two years.
Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
They're nice, but not really the size I'm looking for right now -- I think I need either a desk lamp with a really tiny footprint, or a floor lamp. Thanks anyway, though.

Rearranged stuff again. Printer on top of little bookcase seems to work OK. And putting it this way let me rearrange where I had the modem and router plugged in, which let me eliminate a bunch of messy cords. And the way I have it now, I can hide a bunch of others by taping them to the back of the desk leg. (I have issues with cords. Can't stand a tangle of electrical cords under the desk.)
t edit: the Apple cords that let you swap out the cord or the plug are great. Just switched a bunch of those around, and it made everything a whole lot neater. Computer cord goes right into the wall, Airport Express gets some extra cord so that it can sit on the desk.

YAY! I got all of my quilt squares done, and I've got the inside of the quilt laid out: [link] It's really gorgeous. The pictures just don't do it justice. And once I add the borders, this sucker is gonna just pop. Here's a more close-up picture: [link]
I want to work on it more, but I totally have to go to bed. Really. Right now. See me go.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I love playing Word Sandwich just after 9. Makes me feel so smart to be in the top three... for a few minutes.

I've been playing catch up all day, so I'm forgetting a lot of comments.
First and foremost, KT, in regards to the car. I'd vote for leave it be. The lower car payment for longer is annoying, but not worth the hassle of re-fi'ing again. And it's nice to have the OPTION to pay more, should cash flow allow it. But in tight months not HAVE to. FWIW, althought I was doing the dance of glee a few months back for paying it off early, I'm now looking at the summer months wishing I had waited. While it's nice to have one less bill, it's also nice to have some cash on hand in case something happens (like, oh, I dunno, going to the hospital, which we both can relate to!)
They used government money to give people jobs like working on our crumbling infrastructure.I forget who said this originally, but stands with them 100%. I really think this "stimulus check" shite is just to fuck with the numbers so they can say "see, it's not a recession, there was two months where spending went UP!" Lord knows our infrastrucure could use some help. The roads. Bridges. Hello, was it Twin Cities bridge thing! Maybe use it to build a national rail system worth a damn to REDUCE our dependency on oil.
OK, I gotta stop. I realize I'm starting to rant. sorry about that.

oh ya, KT, to soften the cancellation fee, maybe make it half fee for last minute cancellation? Just an idea.

I think maybe a girl was flirting with me tonight!! I got her number...she's only in town for a couple weeks...
...granted, I don't really have the hots for her. So it's not THAT exciting. But my life is kinda lame lately, so...
