I am trying to be less of a stress case about time. There are some things I feel like you just have to be on time, but if timeliness is optional, I can learn to be less stressed about it. And it's way better for my marriage.
Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

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.

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

I signed the lease and took some pictures of the place empty which you should be able to see here.

Our wings are not tired.
Yay new place! You must be so relieved to have this settled, sumi!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Looks like a nice spacious apartment, sumi. Cool!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I agree! I hadn't realized you were in your other place for so long.

Compassionately intolerant
I third the, "It looks so spacious" sentiment. Of course, every empty place looks like that, but I really like the way the kitchen and living area are connected.
That's great for entertaining.
My kitchen is at the opposite end of my very long apartment from the dining table, so parties and visitors seem to cluster in the kitchen.
In me news, I seem to have potentially talked my way into taking over as the precinct captain in my neighborhood for the Board of Elections.
I don't even know what to think about that.
As I mentioned a bit ago, I decided not to complain because systems are the way they are for a reason and I have been so disillusioned with the local government that I just sighed and moved on.
When they said they would follow up I just thought, Yeahright. Sighed and moved on.
Today, I had an encouragingly productive (40 minute) conversation with a young man who TOTALLY gets the problems and wants to make the process better.
I have said that I want to be part of something wonderful. Maybe this is it.
Or. If the system _doesn't_ change and they don't replace the captain, I will at least feel as though I contributed what I could to the dialog.
It's put a smile on my face. Now, I need to CLEAN ALL THE THINGS.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I need to clean all the things, too, and yet here I sit in the comfy chair. Because it's a lovely spring Saturday, and if I'm not going to curl up with a book, I ought to be out playing in the park, not scrubbing the bathroom. Heavy sigh.
I'm sad that I don't have cleaners anymore. Once I pay off this credit card debt, I'm hiring them again. Because dang, they were worth it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I've been slacking with JZ and Matilda off to Reno, so I forced myself to get up this morning, shower immediately, shave, take out the garbage, do some dishes and even wash the floor behind the garbage can before I made coffee this morning.
Still have more dishes to do though.

Yes, I really liked the way the kitchen and living room are connected. I think it adds to the open feeling.
I am currently attempting to do stuff like change my address and decide which boxes should go first. (I had though I was going to move via the front door and had staged things thusly but now I think that the side door works better. . . )
