This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

The reason it's futile for me to plan for the zombie apocalypse is that I can't come up with a power source for post-apocalyptic air conditioning. Another few days of waiting for a blower motor to come for my A/C and I'll invite the zombies in.

I am in the ATL airport! It's hot. Not in the airport, natch, but I could tell it's hot outside on the walk up the jetway. I have 2 hours to wait for my little Cessna home to the AHN (which is Athens, what a dumb call sign.) I'll wave to Ginger as I fly over, look for me!

It was so wonderful to see everyone who was able to come last night, and javachick gets EXTRA SUPER POINTS for being chipper when I woke her up at 4:30 after she'd had only 2 hours of sleep.

I had a nice vacation; I don't want to go to work tomorrow.

They won't add to the ambient heat, at least.

AC~ma to ya, Ginger.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I left work early to get mac from school. I've decided that it's just better for everyone if there are 2 of us with him and this way I can give him 30 min of one on one play time before handing off to the sitter, then I go back to work remotely.

This will be the plan I talk to my boss about, today i just did it without approval.

It's been mostly ok, he did just get mad at me and stomp off because I told him to do homework for 15 min instead of just saying do this one bit of homework. he has to negotiate everything and try to do the least amount of work possible.

ION, I GOT AN OFFER ON THE HOUSE. It was too low, so I have countered, but hope hope hope she takes the counter or at least comes back with something more acceptable.

Oooh, good luck with the negotiations, msbelle! Do people then have to be approved by your co-op?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Yay for getting an offer on the house, msbelle.

I am almost done with the syllabus. Kinda looking forward to teaching it, too.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Glad msbelle's new plan for mac seems to be working, and all crossables crossed on a better offer.

Happy Anniversary to DJ and DH, and good for finding Lucky-Kelsey's people.

Fleet arrival to Ginger's AC part, and easy-peasy installation.

Welome home to flea.

Hey can anybody do me a favor? Call my house and ask mr. flea to hop on gmail chat? My flight is suddenly delayed 2 hours at a minimum (maybe more) and my phone is not working.

I'll post the number once I get a volunteer.
