I had pumpkin muffins yesterday. I highly recommend adding butterscotch chips in the batter. So yum.

We're still in the recovery room. Grace has recovered. But we're all bored. I'm ready for her room assignment already.

Kate, did you look into local landlord/tenant law before you withheld that portion of the rent? Generally, it's not allowed unless the repairs are needed make the place habitable.

Sparky, we didn't -- and I hope we don't regret it. M just looked into whether or not he could evict us, and he needs to provide us with written notification of the problem and give us 30 days to fix it first, so of course we'd just pay up if it came to that. Eek. Mostly we were just hoping it would light a fire under his ass, but that clearly has not happened.

Regardless, we are moving out in July, so we won't have to deal with him much longer.

Fingers crossed, Kate!

Lisah, that was me. My sister got me to try it and I've been been getting email updates. So far I haven't actually shopped yet.

Okay, cool! Just wanted to make sure it was legit. I'll have to check it out.

I want to go to the grocery store today on my way home, but am afraid that it will be full of people buying toilet paper and milk (although someone once did a study and the actual most purchased items were beer and diapers).

I just want to pick up some stuff for my Superbowl contribution (7 layer dip and cheddar chive mini corn muffins)

Hey, maybe no one will need tech support this Sunday! Or, more likely, they'll be rushing it to get it done before the game comes on.

Glad to hear Grace's surgery went well. Here's hoping for a quick and minimally painful recovery.

I'm home!

I got a ride from a co-worker who leaves east of town. The roads are not too bad and people seem to be sensible so far. It is snowing much harder than it was this morning as was expected.

And glad to hear that Grace's surgery went well. That is good news.

All right, I'm heading out of work for the day. Wish me luck on getting home without much trouble.
