Natter 67: Overriding Vetoes
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Jesse, I saw this article when I was home and thought it would be great for the blog:
Man returns Fort Worth woman's class ring lost for 15 years:
Streib had done a bit of detective work to track Dwire down and wanted to return something he had found. He held Nichole Dwire's high school class ring, lost 15 years before.
"He didn't ask for anything. He didn't want anything," Dwire said recently. "Mr. Streib has renewed my faith in others."
You guys are the best!
Why did that guy come back to his desk stinking of artificial odour enhancers? I totally have to take a walk now. The purifier's not denting it.
I just wished my Jewish boss a happy Hanukkah. He didn't realize it was today. (He's the same boss who didn't know what a Golem was.)
Anyway, I forget if he's agnostic or an atheist....
Allyson, there is definitely a headbug going around your neck of the woods, so best check it out. I had a headache from it yesterday, but it did go away.
So I found replacement bling for the dress! It's actually a fake marcasite ring, but I cut off the band. Go team repurpose! Fancy but not cheestastic. I'm pretty much all set now.
Think I'm on the road to recovery: can go down to 3 feet underwater, though 5 is still Too Much. And I'm less snotty. Slept most of the day again, though.
Timelies all!
Sigh...In the process of paying bills I discovered that I was out of checks. I quickly placed an on-line order for more checks. Luckily my credit card bill isn't due until the 20th...
I have written maybe three checks in the last five years.
I would like to go on the record that I loathe AT&T with the heat of 10,000 suns.
In more yay news...I can haz working car with insurance and updated tags!
My tags have been expired since June, and so... no drivey. No insurance either. And it was dead when we went out to move it up in the drive on T-day, so....
But we got it charged, and insurance on Monday (I got it for both of us for $50 less than was D has been paying ALONE, can I get a HELL YEAH?!) And it is betagged as of tonight, and I just drove it around and stuff.
I can now drive to work and to the store and...well, any damn where. Which means I can now sleep in to the magnificent hour of 5:45am, and get to work by 7, instead of waking up at 5 and having D drop me off at 6:10 am.
Y'all, life is going so good, I am almost scared.
I feel all accomplishy today. It is noteworthy cause I have been letting way too much slide recently.
In addition to work I went to karate, got blood drawn to check thyroid levels, made a dr appt for Kelly for when she is here over Christmas, called to refill CJ's prescription, picked up my refills and did a grocery shop.
Yet to do is finish table signs for craft show tomorrow, pack up everything for the show, print address list so I can work on holiday cards tomorrow, cook dinner, and maybe paint my nails.
