I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

I just bought a Kitchen Aid Mixer last night. Even thought Amazon said it was out of stock, it's shipped already. I just can't resist the sale/rebate combo deal.

I've resolved to be on a shopping ban this fall (with a few exceptions, and foodstuffs, of course,) so I guess this is my way of going out with a bang.

ETA: The exceptions are a few Kindle goodies when my Kindle arrives and a reasonably priced runner for my hallway, if I find one.

I may have to make bread again, which I haven't done since college! That things is heavy as hell though; it will probably outlive me.

Cake is out and cooling, and smells like heaven. the sangria is in the icebox, and also smells awesome and tastes great.

I have a hair appt at 4:30, which I needed, since I haven't had it cut since April; pure luck I could get in on NYE!!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It's in the mid-40's today, which is just about perfect after 18" of snow. Just warm enough to play outside, not quite warm enough to turn the city into a giant slush puddle (yet). So we went sledding! (I *finally* managed to find a hardware store yesterday that wasn't sold out, and I bought their VERY LAST SLED. I am Supermom.)

Every time my phone rings today, I'm answering it with "No baby yet" just in case it's my mom again. I told her to just keep checking Facebook, but she didn't think that was very funny.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think we're going to the pool this afternoon. Meanwhile I'm just sitting on my ass and eating as much Jamaican food as I can and surfing the internet and uploading to flickr and contemplating scanning old pictures. But I don't want to get up.

Man, that sounds lovely.

I did All The Errands, and found Sofia bubbly-in-a-can at my supermarket! I was wanting something bubbly for tonight, but it's just me, so a bottle would be A Little Much. I still can't believe my supermarket has liquor.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

we have gone and picked up mac's playdate and picked up a fast food lunch for us all. I should probably do some of the chores, but do not wanna.

Oooh I am.

We went out to a pub for lunch. But mostly I am bitter that we are not being let go early. Almost everyone else I know in gov't has already been sent home.
