Because books.

I'm shocked. Shocked, I tell you.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'll make up for it by posting during my trip to Walgreens to get antacid.

I need some time to re-cover.

File them down?

That might work--I'm sure my boss has a grinder and could do it for me.

I don't want Friday to come because this is my last week off work; I start back at Former Employer on Tuesday. And before then I have to get my Dad's taxes done, which is turning into way more of a complicated project than I expected.

Also: hire a designer for my brother's website, get dog to vet, schedule & get a massage, get my hair cut, bring some of the books in from the garage, sort my clothes for Good Will and move the winter clothes into the garage, make a couple loaves of oatmeal bread, and make some more vegetably soup to put in the freezer for lunches.

I did go to Ross yesterday where I got 2 dresses, 3 tops, and a skirt for $100. Which I figured is a good deal, even if I couldn't find the perfect dress for my niece's graduation (late June in Chicago).

Did I share with you all what I am leaning to for my Easter dress?

I have new to me vintage hat and gloves that are bright yellow.

That's a whole lot of stuff, Consuela. Nice job at Ross, though!

msbelle, that dress is super cute.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Hmm. My only natter is that I'm going to go to the library when they open at noon to see if I can nab a DVD of Pacific Rim (I think it just came in today, because multiple copies are listed on the shelves of all the branches, and I assume if it had been available for even 1 day, they'd all be checked out).

And then maybe I'll run to the grocery store for cat food since I'll be out. And then back to work. I like having a flexible schedule, but sometimes it means I'm working at 8 pm, when I'd rather be having quality time with Tim.

That's one thing you have to be vigilant about, Tep, and I learned the hard way.

Any software-designing types here? This is a director of technology position with NetGalley, which is work at home: [link]

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'll have to look at your dress after work, msbelle.

Looks like today is going to be a 4 cups of coffee day. But I might be able to get by with only one type of allergy med, so that's something.

Sounds liek a nice haul from Ross, 'suela. I am, coincidentally, in the process of fulfilling an order for them.
