-t, I've said this elsewhere, but you are in my thoughts. I am so, so sorry.

(A separate post, just because.)
House of Reason is having kind of a craptastic weekend. We found a new batch of ants invading the kitchen last night. Moving the dishwasher = not fun. We left a message with the pest control people, but hey, it's a three-day weekend. Argh. Also, we need to contact a plumber, because the pipes for the kitchen sink and the dishwasher were done by an enthusiastic amateur, and have been having problems. To top it all off, Pete had the worst night's sleep he's ever had, after a week of bad sleep, and I need to write 4K words of fiction today.
I would like a do-over now.

Jilli, I recommend Orange Guard It really works, and it smells nice and is safe for pets.

Thank you, Vortex. I just sent that link to Pete.

I'm watching "America: The Story of Us" again. I know it's wrong like a wrong thing but I love it. I wish I had the knowledge to pick out all the wrongness but it's not like I'm passing along the misinformation to someone else. I'm just enjoying it for the cinematic qualities.
And when I finish my soup I'm going to switch it off and play a video game.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Ants totally suck. I hope you can get some relief from them soon. And a good, final solution for both the critters and the plumbing.
I finally got a decent night's sleep. Not at the precise hours I should have slept, but I'm willing to take each battle in this war as they come.

If someone says "you guys are better off without me" should I be worried she's suicidal? I checked a suicide prevention website and didn't recognize any of the other signs.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Yikes Laga, don't know. But keep an eye on her.
Slept like a rock last night. And my back feels like I slept ON one. Considering how my legs feel, I'm chalking it up to standing 5 hours on cement for last nights event.
Wish I knew about that orange thing for ants in Dallas. There was always a little column from the front door to the sink drain. Kinda cute, in an annoying kind of way. But not a problem anymore. I'm on 3rd floor, and not in Dallas!
OK, gotta get my butt in gear. Driving out to Riverside to pick up a box that my movers dropped off at the wrong location. Then, GAME NIGHT! Woot!
