Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

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

Ugh msbelle, the no-win is no good. I hope mac calms down and comes back in soon.

[Note: the above was written hours ago, but I failed to press "Post" because it has been that kind of morning. Oy!]

That's what I picked up today! I am in love with the pink lining in the jacket, I tell you what. But I have a Big Meeting this week, and I think I won't wear it, because I think I feel more power in my second-interview skirt suit, as opposed to these pants. Which do fit like a dream.

Yay! What color is the suit? Do you feel like it was worth it? (I suppose that may take a few wearings to get a feel)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's charcoal gray. I do think it was worth it, all things considered.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Gray and pink is pretty awesome.

I so desperately want my lunch to come out of the oven.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Is Google automatically giving local results now, or do I just live in the world's crunchiest neighborhood? (A friend who had a VBAC recently told me how much it helped her to have a doula present, so I googled "doula" just to educate myself a little, and after Wikipedia and doula.com, the entire rest of the first page of results is Brooklyn-related!)

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Is Google automatically giving local results now

Does it tell you your location in the lefthand sidebar? Mine tells me I'm in Cincy, and I don't get Brookyln doula stuff (I googled doula to check your neighborhood's crunchiness).

Oh hey, there's my zipcode. And I'm logged into Gmail in another tab, so that explains how it knows. Cool!

(And now you should probably clear your search history before Tim starts asking questions...)

An hour and four and a half 30 gallon trash bags full of leaves. And the tree hasn't even gotten serious about dropping its junk. cries

I'm gonna go swim in a bit. And then do laundry and HOPEFULLY find my stupid shirt.

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

guest room is now done, de-cluttered, bed made, and vacuumed - I even put together make-do bedside tables and covered the small ex-kitchen table to make a work table in there for guests.

Am now clearing the mess that is the front room. I have 13 empty plastic bins - Getting them to the garage will clear out one whole corner.

I got these for the leaves [link] . I like a lot.
