I'm just working two days in total this week (full day tomorrow, two half days following), and I've got enough unemployment insurance regulations to keep me busy until Wednesday afternoon.

Apologies to any Chargers fans, but man, I just want to smack Philip Rivers across his smug little face.

Kathy, you still working for the lawyer? (I've probably skimmed a lot in this week.)

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
That's the problem when I have time off. I remember what it's like not being there. And I want to not be there some more.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I've already had two work crises while I was off, so I can't decide if I should check my email tomorrow, or if I should continue to hide from it.... On one of the crises, it's a good thing someone else checked her email on Friday, when we were closed, because it would have turned into a disaster by tomorrow. Ugh!

So here's the Simpsons kipa that I finished on Thursday night, for the wedding of a dear family friend.
Nilly, that is amazing. I wonder if Jon B has seen it?
The ads for Lie to Me are fascinating. I love Tim Roth. And keep being impressed by the quality of actors Fox keeps bringing to tv.
Whoa! Hold the phone! Tim Roth coming to a Fox show near me? How did I not know about this? Squeeeee!
I am using the new 22" LCD monitor that I got from my brother and his family for the the first time. It's a big upgrade from my 15" CRT monitor. Everything is so wide!!! I feel like I am having horizontal vertigo. Horizongo?
Maybe this queasy feeling is because I have to go to work tomorrow.

Our wings are not tired.
Watching live TV just doesn't work quite right for me. I'm switching between a Amy Winehouse concert and The Sound of Music. Um, both musical. Perhaps I should stick to pre-recorded stuff.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
15" CRT monitor.
I think my great-grandparents had one of those for their steam-powered difference engine....

Hey! it's only 7 years old! Maybe 8.
Another advantage: It's now very hard for my cat to block my entire view of the monitor when she wants my attention.

Bonny, you wanna come out and organize my place? I really have to work on it this week. I've got my list of New Years resolutions, and organization is up there.
Love to! I'm a pro, ya know.
I don't do much clutter clearing anymore though because a lot of the folks who hired me just thought they wanted their stuff cleared up.
I figure, if it isn't a health hazard or materialy limiting one's life, clutter really isn't that big a deal. Plus? Order is an ebb and flow sorta thing.
I feel bad for one of my clients who behaves guilitly around me because she's let her house go after I whipped it into shape. As if I'd be disappointed in her or something. Nope, not the momma!
I do miss that type of work sometimes becuase I do so love the satisfaction of the tangivle results. Today, I'm getting them for myself!
