Ah, Good Morning Migraine, how I've missed you!

I should have realized something was brewing when I went a whole week without needing to pop any Aleve at work.

After this week's (or, in my time terms, last week's) peanut butter conversation, I went outside and bought some.

Am happy now. Just wanted to say that. Once again, Buffistas saved the day.

... However, said peanut butter will never touch any chocolate and then served to me. Never.

Matt, feel better.

Blasphemy.

found a little apartment today over a detached garage in a gorgeous historic and rural town, kitchen's bigger than my closet (of a kitchen), bathroom's slightly more spacious, storage in the attic, lots of closets, but slightly more expensive and utilities are all electric.

But, only one neighbor and their thirteen year old daughter. What dangers lurk in 13-y/o girls that I should be aware of? Is there much shrieking and giggling?

Love pb and choc AND I also love pb&J - not as much as I did when I was in 1st grade though.

Well, I finished a sock that's been on my needles since OCTOBER and this morning went to cast on the second sock and discovered that a needle had gone missing over night. Frantic search yielded no needle but I did find my tv remote and a pack of stitchmarkers.

Just now - sweeping under the table came across the needle. Woo hoo! Although I am mystified as to how I never saw it during the several times this morning that I looked in that very place. I think it was invisible.

Also, feeling remarkably chipper considering that I didn't go to be 'til almost 3 am and woke up at 7:30.

Mmm, peanut butter and chocolate.

Well, the house is pretty doggone clean. Our overnight guest & his toddler should be here in about a half an hour or more. It's Dave's high school buddy. He came up from Florida to Indianapolis for Dave's 30th b-day (a surprise party). And now he's coming from Indianapolis to Arizona for his 40th. Kinda awesome, although this time it just happened to be serendipitous; his niece or somebody just got married in Phoenix.

Anyway, we're not too sure about the toddlerproofing, but I think we've done moderately well, and certainly all the chemicals and medicines are out of reach, and he'll only be here for tonight & tomorrow morning. Birthday dinner at one of the mexican places tonight. Should be fun. I need a shower, though.

They're terrifying in packs, but a lone girl shouldn't be too bad.

I should do some of that cleaning everyone else is talking about. Maybe tomorrow on my day off.

Thanks Shir. It's not a bad one, but waking up with it meant I had no chance to ward off the pain aspect.

Thankfully it didn't start last night, as I may have earned a toaster with regard to a far-too-young-for-me wrestler type who bears an uncanny resemblance to this guy.

I've spent the past two hours trying to figure out the best way to configure my DVD/VCR combo player to my HDTV and HD cable box. It turns out that, even with the S-video cable I bought, I still can't get the audio connection to work between all three at the same time, so I have to record my dvr'd shows onto disc/tape while having no audio going to my tv. So, while I'm getting all of the BSG eps from the past few months onto tape, it's going to be quiet. At least, I can watch the video to see when to pause the recording and fast-forward through the commercials.
