Work is not distracting me. I'm living off my mantra of "you can't do anything further on that house until you hear back Sunday night/Monday - stressing over it is not going to change anything". Perhaps I need a more succinct mantra. "Chill out, woman".
The house we almost offered on a couple of days ago is still showing as available, so I wonder if that offer for over the list price fell through. I'd be much happier in the house with the current offer, but the townhome may still be a backup plan.
Note to self: be nicer to you.
YES, BE NICER TO YOURSELF. All of you. Be nicer to yourselves.
I hope everyone's work situations chill out.

Hmm, go find an abandoned film set, set up some quickie buildings, a fake monastery for verisimilitude, call some friends--My kind of party!
I'm off to Madison in a few minutes. But first I'm gettin my car washed for the first time in five months. To improve aerodynamic and my morale.
Consuela, I am jealous of your run. (I've never said that before.)
Hee! Thanks, zen! It was really pretty, and I only had to walk a couple of times. Of course, I came home to discover that Dad has started refusing one of his meds, convinced it's giving him nightmares. Argh, Dad, why you gotta be that way?
And everyone should be nice to themselves! And congratulations to Kiba! Buy yourself a cupcake or a nice bottle of wine!
Hey, there's a new Vikings episode, yeah? And a new AOS ep, too. Gotta catch up.
I did get my hair cut -- I googled up pictures of Judi Dench, and my stylist tried to give me Dame Judi hair. Looks pretty good.
Congrats, Kiba!
FRIDAY.
I bought a truly excessive amount of snacks at the Korean supermarket, but the frozen dumplings I just had for dinner were pretty good.
I bet it looks great, Consuela.
Hey, quick hivemind question: my DH wants to switch the land line to a phone, and eventually to Google Voice. Is there a strong, compelling reason to keep the land line as a land line?
If cell service is down, you can't call anyone. Remember 9/11 when nobody in New York could make calls, and they were posting online and having people call their family members?
(I have no land line, so it's not like I am up nights about this.)
