These pretzels are making me thirsty…

Too hot in here. Fans just make it worse. instead of just being in an oven, fans make it into a convection oven. Poor cat. Lying there on the floor with paws in the air panting like a dog,… Not a good day to have to fight battles with XMPL RPC exploits and angry customers …

Family finiggling..

Ya know, I just got notice from DHS that my pay cleared the security check! Woot! Yay. Of course, it won’ be here to sometime after the first, and my other income just barely covers rent and some groceries. Normally, this would make me grumpy, but I just realized the blessing in all of this. …

Arrrgggghhhh!!!! Mothers!

I’m ready to put my head thru a fuckin wall. I’m supposed to have dropped off something for my mom and picked something up for the last two weeks. Each and every one of the dozen or so times that I’ve gone to meet her, she’s stood me up. I’ve phoned dozens and dozens of …

The Final Menu: First Course Thai Red Pepper soup with basil creme 7 Fruit White Zinfandel Sangria Second Course Fruit and Lavander Chevallier Cheese with cilantro …

Finished it…

Stayed up late and finally finished the Dark Tower series by Stephen King. Thirty four years he spent writing that. Hmmm…. I did enjoy it for the most part, but it kinda ended rather weakly. The magic of the earlier books got lost in the last two. Sad really. Still, it was a great yarn, …

Oh Crap! Not again…

I’m unexpectedly 1100 bucks in the hole! My last payment from a client got reversed due to a mixup with payment dates, and this occured minutes after my attorney’s latest payments came out of my account. *lol* Crap, crap, crap.. Thank f*ing god that I paide off a bunch of credit card debt last month. …
