I'm waiting to sign some estate related papers, while grinding my teeth about the administration's plan to cut 14% from the Coast Guard budget. Aaaargh.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Got an offer for the house, but it's a lowball. Everyone cross your fingers that we can negotiate them up.

Good luck, Dana. Argh 'Suela and PMM and shrift and anyone else.

They apparently filmed Still Life [link] I only found out because I was searching for all available Louise Penny at the library and that was the thing with the shortest wait!

ET because wait, no, let me check that

Also, my husband's communication style does not mesh well with the realtor's, so conversations with him tend to be really circular and endless.

Our wings are not tired.

In better me news, the DVD of the movie of the first book of the Louise Penny series I'm currently obsessed with is waiting for me at the library.

OH!! I did not know there was a movie... Off to Google..

On the plus side, I'm back in the land where not only is chocolate on bread is a perfectly normal snack, but my office provides the chocolate wafers and bread.

This. This is normal. So say we all. Blood and water soaked stages and tornadoes, not so much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, good luck, Dana.

Heh. Media is media, right?

Prior to computers I cut out little pieces of furniture to scale on paper.

I still do this, with great relish. It's kind of obsessive for me. Though, I am certain, much less precise than computer modeling.

Gud, I know you have more expertise than I do, but less time to build a site by hand, so I highly recommend the theme I used for my fancy new site.

It's the Mentor theme, and I found it at envato.

It is specifically designed for therapists.

Ugh, my test results came in today, and my doctor wants me to reduce fat in my diet and lose weight because of a fatty liver. I'm onboard with losing weight (been trying for over a year), but my diet is already pretty darn good about fat—it's salt that I eat scandalous amounts of. I mean I can drop the very occasional pork products for breakfast and phase out my last couple meals/week with red meat, but I'm not going to get rid of dairy, and every salad dressing I've seen has some amount of fat in it.
