Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
It's raining here, which is a good thing, except the dog refuses to go out in the rain. Since she is on the water pills now she is drinking a ton and going out an equivalent number of times. Except when it is raining she will only go out if I leash her and go with her. Sigh.
Sorry about the soaked luggage, sarameg.
I got back home last night around 11, too. My niece waited until after I'd left to have her baby, alas. But she and my first great-niece are apparently doing fine. I'm waiting, ever so impatiently, for photos.
Pouring here too - we're expecting half an inch of rain by the end of the day. So I'm working from home and making my New Years Weekend menu plans. And the kids are coming home today! I should probably put sheets back on their beds, huh.
My house guest left! She was only supposed to stay a night, but it had (for good reasons) to be extended an extra day. I don't usually have guests, so it was kind of tiring. She was a roommate back in college and we're still friends, so it's kind of cool.
Gorgeous day in San Francisco but I am housebound with Matilda who got my sick.
She's snoring on the couch now after ibuprofen and claritin.
It has been pouring rain all night and all day. Lots of flooding and road closures. It's freaking people out. We've ahd so lunch rain this year and then the snow (which is still on the ground in some places) and now this. I have to take the long way home but if one section of road floods I have no idea how I'm going to make it.
Update on the roommate's heart-valve operation, they've got an ombudsman on the case and it sounds like she's taking numbers and kicking asses. Of course, with the holiday, it'll still take time to get unsnarled. Evidently, the operation was APPROVED back in October, but because of Reasons it was put off and probably didn't need to be resubmitted. Ay yi yi.
Anyway, with any luck it should go through.
Want a laugh? According to my mortgage company, the equity in my house is almost exactly 10X what I still owe on the principle. O.o
TCG bought me roses for our dateaversary.
Timelies all!
Gary's work gave everyone this week off, lucky guy. He's gone to pick up Mr. S from daycare, and I have Nova on my lap.
