Yeah, that car thing would make me nuts.

Two days? By that point I'd be considering solutions like building a fire on a skateboard and rolling it under the car's engine.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
What an annoyance, Cass. That happened on our street once. One of our neighbor's parked his car in his driveway while he went on vacation. Car alarm shorts and goes off, and the rest of us have to hear it go off at regular intervals for a week! Luckily for us, it only went nuts for the first few hours and for the next few days it was just a brief 5 minute burst every hour or so. Still annoying as all get out, but bearable, even funny after a while.

I would be quite insane after 2 days of a car alarm.

Re: the eyesight correction discussion earlier in the week - I think peripheral vision is never really in sharp focus so wearing glasses instead of contacts shouldn't make it atrophy from disuse, particularly.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK. I have dealt with a bunch of paperwork and some bills, and am waiting to see if the cable company will transfer my phone number.

That makes sense, -t.
Okay, I've been more active today than I have been previously, but it's still pretty exhausting. I would like to have the house tidied up by the time the SO gets home on Monday, though. And I should clear up his studio a bit so I can move the Pro Tools rig back in there where it belongs instead of in my office. And I should go through these boxes. And do some data work.
But I might go read Dodger and nap instead.

Trust my rage
One if the things I always stress about is the kids spilling finger nail polish bwell, today it finally happened while Ellie was giving Frisco a pedicure. Sammy got the bottle and in 3 seconds it was everywhere. Amazingly, it was all hard surfaces or skin, with the exception of Sammy's pants (no big deal) and a darling pair of Robeez (baby shoes). The funny part was that I love these shoes and had already lost one and had ordered a replacement pair. So, the shoe is ruined but I already have a replacement handy. Nice to have it work like that.
