Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have no idea how to start.

Lock their checks and stuff away! Then see what's near there.

Okay!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, no I can't. The key to the filing cabinet is in the car with Dave...in New Mexico.

Guess I should just give up and go watch Tivo'd Dr. Who!

No? Okay, I'll put their checks on top of the locked filing cabinet and start in that corner.

Do eet!

I love my poor old dignified cat. He just tried to jump up onto a window sill that's not actually wide enough for him (although he's made it up there before), didn't make it, fell back down onto my bed, and walked away like, "What? That's what I meant to do."

not your mom's socks.

I have a nurse who doesn't believe I have a headache, because I'm not acting right for a headache.

OH my god I hate that nurse. I have met her sister. They suck. I'm sure she's very nice but hello? Read the chart. Do the things.

Well, I made it to 10 and there was still stray thunder, so I went back to bed. And looks like more stray thunder. Not sure if I get a swim or not today...

I hope the new shift is on the ball, ita.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Crap, the checks from the new bank are the right format, but not hole-punched. And it's a weird hole-punch pattern, dunno if I can buy an appropriate punch.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

This is a fun game of "crap that is in my office that shouldn't be here" discovery:

  1. pile of books to go to the honor system library
  2. spiked black leather belt
  3. punk band patches from this year's festival
  4. measuring tape
  5. frisbee
  6. LED light bulbs for the hall nightlight

More thunder. And storms are just piled up behind this one all the way out to the eastern shore. I might as well just throw in the towel. Or maybe I'll go out to the hardware store with the gym bag and towel, just in case.

There's a exploded transformer and downed live wire lying in the alley across the street, which explains why the block across from me is without power.

Dagnabbit, I just realized my actual problem with eggplants is the itchy mouth. The dip I made's not bad, but I probably shouldn't eat it? Especially since I think there's ratatouille on the menu for dinner.
