I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Goddamnit, I have a cold.

I ran a cable the length of my car while keeping it completely concealed. That's the first step of my new stereo install. Now to wire together the stereo harness to the adapter harness in two hundred easy steps.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I need a new mattress, so I went to a mattress store yesterday, and it was closed! For no apparent reason. Now I'm trying to decided if I should go to a different mattress store or to Sears. Thoughts? (I don't like my current internet mattress, so I'm disinclined to go that road again, but would take arguments if different foam mattresses really are that different from one another.)

My mattress is great. I got it from my parent's basement after they replaced it with an adjustable one. Unfortunately, I think that was the last mattress my parent's basement had so that probably isn't very helpful.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Macy's usually has a big mattress sale this time of year.

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

The only time I have bought a mattress I got it from a furniture store along with the bedroom suite, as the Price is Right would call it, so I don't know if I should be listened to, but my gut says Sears.

I don't know how anyone gets anything done in the wintertime. Maybe if I could ski from my door to somewhere I would feel differently. Or maybe I would just need a bigger pile of comforters to burrow under.

ETA I just noticed that Macy's has mattresses a week or so ago. Probably a good place to lie down on a few?

I don't think my local Macy's actually has furniture, but will double check.

For whatever reason the mattress store scares me more than a department store, so I guess I'll try Sears.

Since Gud's parents' basement isn't going to hook me up. Thanks for nothing!!

The mattresses at my Macy's were upstairs in the back by the bridal registry and luggage. I only saw them because I was looking for a bathroom. FWTW

I got an envelope from my Irrigation District yesterday and I actually put off opening it until this morning because I thought I might be in trouble for using too much water but it turns out it's just higher than standard concentrations of disinfection byproducts in my area. Whew?
