egad, Belinda is huge! My mind's eye must have shrunk her down to less terrifying size.
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
ugh - online job searching. Have only found jobs that would be at least a $15K pay cut. This is how this company keeps people, they do pay well.

So tired here. Signed up for too much this week and it will be fine and good, but the part of my brain that needs routine is having cracked out squirrels. Tiresome part of my brain.
Met some neighbors tonight and I swear I've seen the husband around before- Y maybe? Anyway, they posted to the neighborhood listserv needing a workbench and clamps to cut 1/4 " off a metal bracket, so I offered. It turns out, they needed my sawzall too! Their tool couldn't do metal. I'd just bought a variety pack of blades last week. Anyway, I liked them a lot, felt like I'd known them before. She's due with their first in 3 weeks. So that was fun.

Oh, and they had a plumber rec for repiping. They've done all of theirs and had multiple quotes. So that was nice too!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Went out to the local art festival, in broiling weather. It was a good day out. I just couldn't afford a single thing I liked.
Toyota is a big sponsor and they had a few cars there and were offering test drives with a $20 bonus. Only got the $20 for the first test drive, but I got to take three cars out - the Carolla, Avalon, and Venza. None of them are solid contenders for my new car research, but if someone handed me the keys to any of them, I would be happy.

I got some needed vacuuming done, so go team me!
Also, I watched two episodes of Vikings and I may be hooked, or at least entertained enough to watch some more.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We drove with my visiting mom and DHs visiting mom out to Manzanar today. A long trip and really hot once we got there, but it's so amazing and moving.

This is a friend who gleefully collects creepy and disturbing clown dolls. He refuses to believe that Belinda could be overwhelmingly disturbing. HE IS SO WRONG.
AHAHAHAHA!
Jilli, what exactly were we all talking about that had me say, "OH MY GOD, JILLI! HE'S THE TARGET AUDIENCE FOR BELINDA?"

Something about clown dolls? IDK, I think my brain put up protective screens at that point. But I have sent him the photo, and will report back on his reaction.

Ugh. There is a training I really want to go to tomorrow morning (online/phone) from 9-11AM. I am supposed to be on a plane at 10AM. I looked at changing it, but my options are either 6AM flight (and then quick once I land figure out where to site and do the training, plus be exhausted all day) or 4PM flight (and don't get where I'm going until about 9PM what with driving time and evening traffic and whatnot). Hmm.
