Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

What causes the sensation of something being stuck in your throat, when there isn't anything really? This has been hours and it isn't going away. Should I worry? It doesn't hurt, it just feels like a lump in my throat.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I found Comcast responded to tweets quickly, but not in a way that got anything done quickly.

Am in JFK! With plenty of time to kill, but not quite enough to have gotten on the earlier flight. Ah well. Maybe it's time for caffeine....

And I think the world in general no longer wears black to funerals, but Iwear a lot of black, so why not there, is what I figure.

I am so tired of trying to find a house to buy. You know how with work projects, there's on time, on budget, and done well, and you can only pick two? I feel like with house hunting, there's house we like, house we can afford, and good location, and we only get to pick 2. So over it.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Health~am to your family, Sue.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh Sue, triple doses of healing~ma.

waiting for the cable company to arrive for an appointment

My last round of Comcast frustration involved their phone calls that were inconsistent with the 'push number for' messages. Who the heck pushes 1 to cancel and 2 to confirm? Then the next time it would be something else. Random and seriously annoying. And if you don't answer your phone for some random toll free or local number (which I never do) then they just cancel because they didn't reach you. Grrr.

Ugh, flea. I hope to be with you on the house hunt soon. Mine is listed, for not long I hope. DH says he is happy to rent short term until we find the absolutely right thing, but I can't see that really happening. It would be much easier for us than you since we don't have the kiddies.

My adorable son Bobby has told us that when it comes time to house hunt he is cool with living with us if the perfect house has room, or he will move in with college buddies if the perfect house is smaller. Either way works for him. Awwww.

HA! I think I can only do one of those on any work project.

But yes with your point about houses. House hunting for us felt like slowly lowing our standards the entire time.

I am cold this morning. IT's a sit in the cold house and enjoy it before it's 90 degrees sort of day.

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

Did yesterday's 5 miles this morning, whee! Went past/through three different parks and on three different trails, which pleases me greatly, AND I'm not unimaginably worn out. It's like following the training program is better for me than just randomly running whatever distance/time strikes my fancy on any given day.

Also, if I make this a regular route there are several places I can get breakfast (or, for that matter, lunch or dinner but today I am thinking about breakfasts) at about the halfway point, which is something to think about.

Aw, Bobby's sweet.

The status is NOT quo.

Go you! Training programs are the best. It's he only way I keep myself on track.

Kat, isn't it glorious today? Blue sky, green mountains, warm sun, but a chill in the air. Just lovely.
