Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ah, that makes sense.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Husband has started working from home (and we'll see how that goes, with both of us here), but he's brought his monitors and stuff home, and my current computer desk seems like it will fit his stuff best.

So now I want a new desk. And I yearn for one of those desks with crazy cubbyholes and niches and stuff. Like this.

Except way less expensive.

Here's an article covering what's happened so far: [link]

Or, if you prefer, you can watch the dueling bear cubs [link] I came across while looking for more news.

I do prefer bear cubs, thanks!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Dana, I found a desk like that (apparently they're called secretaries?) on Craigslist for $30.

Yeah, I've been paging through CL too. It's just a ton of stuff to sort through, and people with furniture are just as likely to be an hour away as they are to be close.

Because books.

Go bear cubs, choose bear cubs.

That's a very cool desk, Dana.

Also, I have a combination of "we sold a house" and "it was my birthday!" materialistic blood lust.

Oh, people, I want this house: [link]

We could technically afford it, but it is more than I wanted to spend. It would mean, for example, that it would make no sense to go to France next year.

I woke up with a headache, but now it's building to a migraine. Come on, brain! I only need to hang in there two more hours and then we can jet.
