{{{hugs}}} on family issues, Stephanie.
omnis, we got the letter notifying us we'd be receiving our stimulus payment three days AFTER the direct deposit hit our account. Great use of paper/postage, US government!
Annabel was the Queen of Crankiness from late morning through lunch, but now she's taking a nap beside me on the couch and looks all sweet and beautiful now that she's not, you know, whining and demanding something with every breath.
She's saying she doesn't want to go to the game tonight because she has a stomachache, an obviously fake one since it only comes up when we talk about going to the game and she's eating normally and showing no symptoms. My response, "Yeah, I know. The Mariners make me feel that way this season, too. But Felix is pitching, which can be good. And if it isn't this time, Manny might hit 500, and I promised some of my Boston friends we'd post pictures if he does. And besides, we skipped the last game, and we want to see our friends from our section. So you'll get over it."
