Full of questions (I skipped). Did the contract on your apartment get signed?

my mom is gone, the contract is NOT signed, there is not only still food in the pantry there is food in the freezer and fridge! I am working from home all week though, so hopefully I can make a dent in that stuff.

I feel fairly prepared. I know I can knock out 2-4 boxes a day without much effort, I am more worried about what mac and I want to take on the plane with us. I am making us both pack trial bags this week, so we have a sense of what will really fit.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Normally in the summer when a storm cloud rages through you just have to wait a bit for it to pass and then the sun is out and it is beautiful again. Not tonight.

We drove to the concert but hung out in our cars cause we could tell it was going to rain soon. Instead of the usual warm weather rain, it was cold and icky and didn't pass. So we bailed and went back to my friend's house. We had fireworks we could light in their driveway. But the rain didn't let up at all. So our pyrotechnics are on a rain delay. Maybe tomorrow night.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Wow, I think I just saw the longest play on Earth. With 6 people in the audience and 8 people in the cast (6 of whom I knew). It was actually a staged reading, but it was seriously 2 1/2 hours.

You are a good human to stick around for that.

That doesn't seem that long. Unless it was terrible.

We have a busy day today. I need to pick up the laundry we did yesterday, talk to the building staff to get the moving pads put up in the elevator, go pick up mac's playdate, get some cooking/baking done before it gets too hot, be here at noon for the people picking up the armoire, do some work, label 4-5 boxes that are packed but not labeled, pack the backpack I plan to carry on the plane (test run).

whew!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It seems like a good day to go to the movies here, but there's not really anything I want to see. Woe.

It was sort of terrible. It was RUR (Rossum's Universal Robots), which could be a compelling play, but it needs to be cut. And we were sitting on church pews. And I was with 2 wriggly children. And frankly, even (or perhaps because) of working in theatre, I don't tend to like to sit down and watch shows without getting up and walking around. I am so used to being in rehearsal, where I come and go that it is really hard for me to sit still.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

We didn't end up getting to the Folklife Festival after all. We met up with some folks from out of town, and they wanted to see the Museum of American History, so we went there for a few hours, then made our way to the Capitol and staked out a place on the lawn where we could see the fireworks. It was very, very hot.
