My socks never seem to dry thoroughly when I do laundry, so I agree--damn socks!!

Lunch today is from the cafeteria, and is quite yummy: tilapia stuffed with crabmeat and cheese. I also got a small scoop of potatoes on the side, but I'll probably just have a forkful of that and then toss the rest after I finish the fish.

non-family holiday cards (what? better late, right?)

Yes, I just got one from friends in AZ and it was a joy to receive.

Totally better late, msbelle.

What is up, socks?

I do this when it's a big pile of various white socks of the boys. Too hard to pair them up, so they sort of languish in a basket somewhere. Which is why I like my socks of many colors and prints, because finding their mates is easy.

OMG PERKINS FUCKING ROCKS MORE THAN ANYTHING!

Onerous Task: Take all the material downtown to apply for Matilda's kindergarten. Because SFUSD rejiggered the school assignment system (making it easier and better for the most part) they're very concerned about address fraud.

So I need oodles of non-traditional address documentation. It's not enough to produce my driver's license. I need billing from a utility, and car registration and/or a deed or Section 8 agreement.

Also, I need to bring in her Actual Official Birth Cert because they've had people scanning and fudging dates and such like.

So it's kind of like a trip to the DMV basically.

And after I collect Emmett this afternoon I have to take him to the dentist which is mostly onerous for him.

My onerous task today, after I finish eating lunch and then do a run down to the archives of Session Law books to look up the history of a California statute for an editor, is to finally work on my self eval which is due at the end of the month. Ugh.

sarameg, my goal is to get up to the 33 laps (a mile) by Sunday. I'm going to the pool tonight, tomorrow, Saturday, and Sunday, and adding two laps each time, with a third lap added on Sunday to make the full 33. Then, I'm going to work on whittling down my time. I figure that 33 laps will be somewhere in the 80-90 minute range, and I hope by the spring to get it under an hour.

WHO DRIVES ME CRAZY AND WOULD SEND PEOPLE TO CAMPUS OF DUBIOUS CHARACTER WHO MIGHT, IDK, STEAL THINGS AND GET CAUGHT? Yeah.

Oh, lawd. I'm guessing it's P the Schmooze Mastah. Can't wait to hear that story.

BTW, I have a Groupon to Sandwhich I need to use. Dinner? You like Sandwhich, right?

Amy, can you get them to safety pin the dirty socks together when they go in the hamper?

Good luck, Hec.

I'm trying to get an early start on tonight's OTs by checking my bank balance and paying my credit card bill during lunch.

My onerous task took care of it self at 2:30 in the AM when I got a production on-call phone call. Ugh - pretty much didn't get back to real sleep after that. Hope we get another snow day tomorrow, is all I can say (if we get the anticipated 6-10 inches).

Also, very sorry for your loss, shrift. I hope the aftermath isn't too trying.
