Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Earthquake in Kalamazoo?!

The epicenter was only a few miles from my parents' house! I think it was a 4.2 and it startled the crap out of us. Baby's first earthquake. I was sure my first earthquake would be in California, but nope.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Ginger, must be the day for bookshelves. As part of the flipping of the living rooms, I am moving 4 bookshelves. Only one done thus far. I am culling books as I go though, about 10 thus far.

I am taking a break, having a little muscle spasm in my arm. We did a lot though 2 tvs, 2 tv stands, a recliner, a couch, a chair, a table, and the one bookshelf plus books.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I had such plans for this weekend: cleaning the winter out of the car, seeing Age of Ultron, washing all the things, putting in the air-conditioner, groceries, laundry, etc.

What I didn't plan on was a sinus infection. Bleh.

Only getting the bare minimum done.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It is so beautiful outside here! But I'm still basically overstimulated from the long weekend in DC with my mom, so all I can do is watch TV.

Also, I got some mehndi on my hand, which was kind of a mistake. It could last for weeks?? I need to get to scrubbing.

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

Ugh, quester. That's certainly a good excuse. Feel better.

I have loads of stuff to do but just want to nap. Maybe a cup of tea would help.

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

I'm watching Captain America with Dylan and DH and ordering groceries online. (Oh god, if I move to the suburbs I'm going to have to leave my couch to get groceries, aren't I? What are we thinking??)

I'm pretty sure Peapod is in the suburbs! You will be OK.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Oh, Jesse, I have King Peggy's book on my TBR..er "pile" isn[t the right word when you're talking about Oyster, but...

I've read a couple of articles and watched a short news piece and if seems utterly fascinating!

Oooh, Jilli, that font IS nice: [link]

I'll have to go look at the other suggested fonts, but now I gotta get off my ass and do some cleaning and unpacking.

Good point, Jesse. WHEW.

I'm jealous of your Embassy/Passport adventures, Jesse! Dang, some things I miss from DC.

This morning, as my friend was driving us to go walk around the lake, I noticed someone else's car tabs that expire in March. And remembered that mine always expire in March. But I didn't remember doing them this year. Had I done it in like, February and already forgotten? When I came home I looked at my car. Nope. Totally expired over a month ago now. Oops.
