oh wait, now it tells me my vote did register. YAY!
And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men: evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, soon my electro-ray will destroy metropolis BAD.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
70 noms and mine registered. Yay!

Even though all but one year, I've seen them every year, I'm still agog. But then, my eldest nephew turned 11 at xmas, and that's just INSANE.

They will be 7 next week. There's no way we'll get the most nominations -- the most in her bike category is 10,222 (I don't think) so at least she's in the raffle.

God, that means Tyler will be 7 too. HOW.
Loki's been on my lap since 8. I get up to do stuff, I come back and put him back on my lap. He's really gotten into being a lapcat this winter (I suspect the frigid temps helped.) He's a good lapcat.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

up to 93 though!
YAY Bob!

Hey, Lisah!
Will you enable my laziness and send/post the links for the bike ride, for both you and Bob?

But, of course!

I somehow wasn't able to vote for Grace but was able to pledge money? Which I did! I'll try to vote for her on my work computer tomorrow.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I have definitely been onerousing lately. Things I have accomplished in the past three days:
- Multiple phone calls to the three companies who hold my retirement accounts from my last three jobs, plus a bonus call to the company I am rolling everything over to; multiple forms filled out; two envelopes addressed and ready to go out in the mail tomorrow (need to make one more call before the last one is ready).
- Have basically finished Rose's birthday gift: a trunk full of dress-up clothes. Acquired the trunk via Craigslist; found some clothes at Goodwill; found more stuff in our closets; washed everything and put it all in the trunk.
- Four loads of laundry (including dress-up stuff, also couch cover and three chair cushions that have been sitting on the dryer for several months), all dried, folded, and put away.
- Two loads in the dishwasher (second ongoing), plus organized our mountain of Tupperware and tossed a bunch of stuff in the recycling bin.
- Took out trash & recycling, took a few boxes down to the basement, got glass recycling ready to go tomorrow (no curbside pickup; I'll take it to the recycling place on my way back from dropping off Rose at daycare).
- Vacuumed the whole house, except the kitchen (which I will do tomorrow, along with mopping).
- Cleaned both bathrooms.
- Replaced a couple of burnt-out bulbs.
- Returned some library books.
- Went grocery shopping.
- Spent a few hours on work stuff, reading book reviews and putting an order together.
On tomorrow's agenda: make the (hopefully!) final phone call re: retirement accounts, send out the envelopes, take out glass recycling, vacuum kitchen, mop, meet friend for lunch, plan lessons for the fourth-grade classes I'm taking over for the rest of the year. Maybe go for a walk?
Shit, I'm tired, but it feels great to be getting all this stuff done. I definitely need to put in more time on the actual work stuff tomorrow and Friday, though. Spring break, woo!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Trunk full of dress up clothes is an awesome gift!
