Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

A well-placed ellipse can be more effective than a smiley.

I'm home. Went to bed after 2 AM, slept badly, up by 7 even though I have nowhere to go. And no beach to go walk on.

Still, it was good to have a vacation.

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

It really only comes to three loads (one white, one reds, one colors-red-would-bleed-on) that I would be divisding any smaller amount of towels into anyway. This way I have larger loads and make more efficient use of water.

Yeah, but that's not why. Reusing towels is just icky, I don't know how people do it.

Anyway, went out to see my folks (and pick up my Box o' Meat now with extra bacon) yesterday after work. Went for a run with my mom (she walked, but we were on the same trail) and then my dad met us and we went to dinner and had a nice visit. Somehow, (a) that felt like an entirely different day than the work day and (2) after that I was less tired than I was all day at work. Weird. In a good way.

Fingers crossed hard about the house, flea.

Welcome home, Theo. I hope you did not bring back a souvenir alligator.

Well, the buyers accepted the other offer. At least I don't have to wait all day?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Oh, damn it. I'm sorry. How disappointing and frustrating.

Aw crap. Maybe the other buyers financing will fall through?

Oh well. The grapes on the backyard grapevine are probably sour.

I'm sorry, flea. I hope something works out for you soon.

Oh flea, I'm so sorry.
