I've been more productive today than I realized. I've cleaned, done shopping, assembled a new water filter pitcher, organized three years worth of paperwork into three piles (trash, save, shred), swept, done dishes and laundry, closed some open code issues, and even exercised.

Now I'm planning to make pork stir fry.

Today's been a crazy day here. K has had a migraine and Noah had to get the second half of his H1N1 Vaccination (which meant a 45 minute line). Then there was ice skating for the first time and barbecue and the usual potty training drama. Now cleaning for sarameg et al.

Don't worry about it much! Really!

How did ice skating go?

I got a fair amount done today, both outside the house and in. I'm stunned at how cheaply you can get a terabyte of storage an a region-free DVD player. Installing the drive was a bit stressful, and it's McGyvered in for now, but my head hurt too much to go back out and get the remaining bit I needed.

I pulled out my Wire DVDs. Man, this show is good.

Indeed.

My neighbor is having her sewer line snaked. Roots. She said she just calls and they come out and it's free. I forgot to ask her who she calls (city?) Loki's fascinated.

ookay, free if you have a cleanout drain. I don't believe I do. 3.8K to put one in. Otherwise, it's a plumber. Thank god for home warantee. adds cleanout drain to long list/.

Skating went as one would expect... he was sort of like Bambi but not as coordinated. The upside is that he had a great time and he was really peeved that we had to leave at the end of the free skating time. Ice time was about $6 for both of them since they went at the last 45 minutes of free skate. Not a bad way to spend some time.

I am glad he enjoyed it. So cute.

ita (or anyone else), I missed this week's Criminal Minds, and it doesn't seem to be online. Did anything exciting happen?
