I still haven't heard back from the dog rescue place about my application. They said it would be two to three days, and it's been two days so far. I'm not so good at waiting.
I'm fairly certain I said no interruptions.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Omnis, I'm sorry you had to postpone the talk with your mom. It's tough to know you've got to do a stressful, unpleasant thing, and to not be able to just get it over with.
Hil, I hope you hear about the dog soon. Good luck!
This is so exciting because she gave birth to her first child (a boy who is doing great now) when she was only 20 weeks pregnant.
I can't even imagine! I thought 24 weeks was the very earliest a baby could survive outside the womb, but I guess there are always exceptions. Anyway, that is amazing that baby#1 is doing great, and baby#2 is almost here!

Pix, thank you and I miss you and love you. Also, you free Tuesday or Wednesday next week?
Went to a place a couple hours north of here today with roomie and a friend of hers who was visiting from Australia. We saw bald eagles!! I'm really hoping some of the pictures I took come out well. And then I met up with a good friend who just also got dumped and we commiserated a lot, and ita least feel that love.
Tomorrow, dim sum and some relaxing, I think. Am a little worried that one eye seems redder than it was,but hoping that's a paranoia and not reality.
And in best news, the car alarm car is still there and the alarm flashing, but maybe ran out of battery or something, as its not making noise!!!! Yay!!!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Were there swans, meara? Usually the swans and the bald eagles hang out in kind of the same territory--swans on the ground, eagles in the trees along rivers, usually. From now through March is the best time to see both. It is exciting to see them.
Oh, yay for a silent car alarm.
Hugs and hellos to everybody. Tomorrow is take the closet back to the walls day, so we can rearrange, sort, cull, purge, and store in a logical fashion. I need my sleep, so g'night.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
I have started watching Lost Girl. It's almost a cross between Buffy and Angel series. Really not wanting to go to work tomorrow. It's gonna be a long day. On the good side, condo is cleanest it's been in a long time. The Mint+ swept up all the floors. Dishes done. Bathroom clean. Hell, I even made the bed!

The status is NOT quo.

If you started with the current Lost Girl, probably not the best series introduction.

Thrive to spite them
Today has been sort of productive - I went to the grocery store and bought some things including 2 whole chickens (on sale!) one is waiting for the crock pot the other is in my freezer. Which is really really fully. I think I can stop stocking up on stuff for awhile.
Also got bubble wrap to insulate the windows and went to Jo Ann's and got one of those new sew fleece blankets. I'm not making a blanket, I'm using those for window coverings. I discovered one of the two energy efficient windows is damaged somehow, it's not sitting right so when the wind blows (and it was really blowing earlier today) it blows right through the window.
I know there's plastic wrap you can put over the windows, I had a ton of trouble with those last year - the windows don't have nice flat surface to put the tape on so I just gave up on trying to deal with them.
And I put almost every book I have in my possession on Goodreads. Which is really more cat vacuuming than productive, but it felt kind of productive. Now I need to finish washing dishes.

askye, that sounds like a good day. Go you!
After starting my week out last week with yoga, everything went to hell quickly. I ended up a ball of anxiety and couldn't leave the house at all. I finally got out today, with TCG, to go food shopping, which was desperately needed, and now I have a pumpkin lasagna in the oven. We found out it was restaurant week in Providence, so we're going out for yummy Italian food tomorrow night, and then hopefully I will be able to get out of the house by myself this week.
