They pretty much ignore me. Marley's on your hat.
Yeah, he loves sitting on that hat. It was on the table near the kitchen, and he sat on it there all the time. Then I moved it and he set up shop in the office. Hat sitting. What are you gonna do?
It's a bit of a relief that he didn't actually understand the gravity of the situation, just from a scuzzball slumlord POV. Glad he does now.
Why does everything always have to feel like one step forward and two steps back?
Not to sound like a downer, but I have found that most of life for me feels like this a lot of the time.
God. My stress levels are absolutely stretched out to the max. WHAT is going on? I'm beginning to think that vacation cannot come soon enough or last long enough. At this point I think I'm in a feedback loop - being stressed out about my stress.
Nora, I'm sorry you also feel that way, but I find it somewhat comforting not to be the only one.
I think that's how life IS. There is no clear-cut progression. You just keep moving and eventually the forward steps outnumber the back.
Count me in on the back and forth shuffle of life. For sure.
javachik, at this point it's how fast we can get a plumber here and then pay the fine and I have to pay a deposit. And tomorrow's Friday. He also offered to run a "work-around" pipe for a few days, if necessary.
May have scored an awesome wood chest from my neighbor, gave my leftover puppy pads to another neighbor, met two more new transplants from NC with an adorable runty boxer, and gave my number to another guy who knows people looking for a place to live, all in the space of about twenty minutes. Irish Channel likes carrots.
Speaking of, I may be able to actually report on whether St.W likes carrots, or at least my spicy carrot slaw.
Nora, I hope you have a nice relaxing weekend. Did you have a release party last night? How did it go?
Yep, Trumpet release party! It went OK, but I packed up and took away a case of wine I should have left and I tried to return it today but the place was closed... will try again tomorrow.
Weekend: ahahahaha, will be working from 1-8pm at the Beasts & Brass fundraiser on Sunday. And will have to fight organic food lovin' yuppies (I KNOW- guilty as charged...) to get figs on Saturday. But we will figure out some chill time.
dirty!
Ahahahaha! That might be later though.
...not that kind of release party.
Is Beasts and Brass sold out? It snuck up on me. Am also willing to volunteer if you need another pair of hands.
