Yay, there's hope me for still.
You have no idea. Baby/toddler clothes apparently multiply at the same rate that socks vanish. I'm about to inflict another box on poor Sparky, I've got yet
another
box lurking in wait behind that one, I give two grocery bags of clothes every couple of months to the other moms at Matilda's daycare, and we're still drowning in clothes, and still finding newborn items tucked into various corners and hidden in the backs of closets.
(Dept. of Random: The last time I saw you and your fellow, I don't know what it was about the sweet way he was looking at you, but something in his eyes made me want to lunge at him, shake him until his teeth rattled, and bawl in his face,
"What is the matter with you?!
You obviously get just how adorable she is, and you're not getting any younger yourself, so start breeding already!" I didn't do it because I feared it might be tacky. But, for the first time ever when seeing the two of you together, I
really really
wanted to.)
Also I just got my utlity bill. I have no idea what I've been doing but my electric usage nearly doubled from last month. I'm going to have a huge final utility bill.
But after Saturday I'll be out of here and living with mom and my expenses will plummet.
Unless my cats keep getting sick.

So funny you should say this. Thanks for telling me he was looking at me sweetly--I definitely didn't catch that. But things are much better now that several companies are pinging him for interviews and possible employment. Amazing how much that can help a person's confidence! Thanks for these sweet words. Feel free to rattle him next time!
Askye, if you aren't doing anything different, is it possible that someone else is hooked in on your power bill due to some mistake either at the power company or at the apartment complex? Signed, happened to me.
Love Louise Black. I haven't watched Project Runway in a while, but I might now.

Are you running fans or an AC?
So hungry the nasty looking nachos the guy across the table is eating are sounding good. DW is getting Felicia Day to sign something then we eat!
I had the a/c running and we had a week of 100+ heat so it's probably from that. I was talking to my Mom and her bill went up but over $100 from last month.
So I'm going to blame it on that.
I also just posted a 3 comment length long rant about health care on someone's wall. He voted No on the poll about Obama's health care plan and made this comment
I'm sorry but I am sick of paying for other people's problems.
And I went off and it makes me mad I'm about to go off on another rant about how as a part of a society we help each other.

It's happened to me before from an AC too. Sorry.

Yes, I'm sure that Tylenol the doctor prescribed for you while in the hospital really does cost $10. You just get a discount at the drug store. :: hits with clue-by-four :: Dummy, of COURSE you are paying for other peoples problems!
Sorry. Had to say it. I know, preaching to the choir.
Speaking of...
(though I have to say, as a regular churchgoer who would consider you totally snoggable if I were single, your yellow flag #1 made me sigh regretfully)
Let me clarify. Church goer does not make a flag. The flag was more, the feeling that, well, she would want me to be too. I have no qualms of someone going to church. If that is their thing. Fine. Just don't be a judgmental on me because I *don't* go to church. She was telling the story of a house guest who left the nest, since he quit the job of working for Mom & Dad, and was a HUGE Freddy/Freeloader type. And she was like "if you are here, you need to go to church" and he was like "no, then I have to wear a suit, and it's oppression from 'the man'..." blah blah blah. But, the thing I gleaned is, Hmm, I might *have* to go to church. NSM. You can go. Have fun. Tell me what you learned. We can have a great chat. I'll sleep in. Hopefully that reduces the sigh just a bit.
Omnis, how do I put this elegantly? She sounds icky.
I dunno if she's icky. But there does seem to be some conflicting things there. But then again, that was one of the things that confused me about Bush(II). If you are as Christian as you say, why do you favor the rich so much? Wasn't there some story about a camel, and a needle eye, and better chances of passing that then a rich man passing the gates into heaven???
I'm going to Houston this weekend. So, won't see her. I think she's fine as an acquaintance. Certainly helps to introduce me to the more geeky side of Dallas, which I had been missing.
OK, time to sit in traffic. Wheeeeeee!
Whatever the case, I admire you for getting out there and meeting people. That is SO important. And I don't want you to get your hopes deflated if this one doesn't work out. You're doing awesome just seeking out new people. And even if she doesn't end up being someone you date, you've opened up the dating arena by meeting her. Good on ya!
