I am quite enjoying the current British boatlift. "Hm, thousands of stranded Brits on the shores of Europe! Get the boats!" I bet the Chunnel's packed.
I'm eleven hundred and twenty years old! Just gimme a friggin' beer!

Heh. Apparently I am NOT allowed to be a mad scientist in my own home. How wrong is THAT?!?!
Barb! When I have keys, you can come SEE IT!! Also, um, I already read those books you loaned me.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Seska, you are cool for being willing to rescue people like that.
Congrats, meara!

The status is NOT quo.

Congrats, meara!
Heh. Apparently I am NOT allowed to be a mad scientist in my own home.
I say, screw the rules.
And Seska - wow.
In 30 minutes Memorial Day will be over, moving it's place to Independence Day. It was a long one.

Congrats, meara!
Seska, awesome to the rescue!
About going back to school in lieu of a job, I want to study Web Graphic Design. It's a much more extensive course than the Web Page Design Certificate I got last year.
Basically, I didn't learn enough, I haven't kept up with what little I learned and I have no confidence in my ability to do anything and less in my ability to convince someone to give me a job.
I think more intensive study will help both my confidence and getting a job. In the mean time, I need to get some kind of work so I can pay my insurance and credit card bills. I also need to move out of my sister's house. It's been over a year.
Sis and SiL have been very generous but I can tell it's wearing thin. I'm tired of being in limbo and I don't want to alienate them.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Yay meara! Congrats on the home-ownership! Wishing you a successful move.
quester, the web graphic design course sounds really interesting. And like a smart move. Would you do it alongside part-time work, then? I hope it all works out well for you, whatever you decide to do next.
