Option paralysis?
Generally speaking, I like multi-tasking. I'm good at it, it keeps me from getting bored, and it means that many things can get my attention in a short time period ( Read more... ) -
That's *Captain* Jack Sparrow
I just saw the trailer for the new Pirates movie, and it looks good :) -
Planning my life...backwards?
I think I may be doing this wrong. I've been trying to find a new job, and letting that determine where I'll live, and what kind of place I can afford ( Read more... ) -
hi ho, hi oh, it's off to work I go
Ok, I probably should have saved that title for the post when I get a new job. But, that didn't happen today, so I'm using it for my work schedule this week. I worked four hours on Sunday, and an extra hour and half today, and I have to go in a half hour early tomorrow (and a few other days this week ( Read more... ) -
One minute entry
I'm still looking for work. I've applied to several places, including a couple that are almost within walking distance of where I currently live. Of course, where I currently live needs to change, by July at the very latest. Assuming that I don't get hired someplace else, I'm getting a vacation the second week of April.

Valentine's Day thoughts
For a long time, mabon_grey thought I didn't like Valentine's Day. I can't really blame him, because I rant about it often enough. It's not that I don't like the romance of Valentine's Day. A touching card and yummy chocolate? Who would object to that? Not me! I do object to the pressure. The idea that you have to prove how much you love someone on that one ( Read more... ) -
Long time, no talk
My mom has decided that they got "enough" of the cancer with her first surgery, and she won't be going back for a second one.
I had to put Rikki Tikki Tavi (my cat of 20 years) to sleep on Friday. He'd been dying for a long time, and was mostly at ease about it, but Thursday night he became very distressed. I was up with him for about four hours ( Read more... ) -
Mom update
Her lymph nodes (they ended up taking four) were clear, which is the best possible news. They aren't going to be doing chemo or radiation therapy. She *does* need to go back in for a second surgery, because they didn't get all of the cancer, but expect that to be a breeze. -

I'm just doing a drive by update. It may turn into something more. We'll see ( Read more... )
