It's bedtime, but I got hooked on this one last survey that Jenny posted.
( 20 'deep' questions )

I just got back from a weekend in NH looking after my bro's and his gf's house (and her son, and their dog and two cats), and I am BEAT.
So, I'm gonna go catch up on some things and unpack; maybe I'll write something later tonight.
Hope everyone had a good weekend!

Well, we're getting down to the wire here. I have 5 weeks of work left, then a week off, and my parents are coming to help me move on May 30th/31st. At the shop, we have just two pianos left, both Mason & Hamlin models. We're well into work on the last piano, which means I'm doing a bunch of things I won't be doing again any time soon, if ever ( ( Read more... )

Hmmm, haven't written in here for a while, eh? I am pretty sure the only thing that's "happened" since I last wrote was my weekend in Boston last weekend. Which was SO great, and I will get around to a journal about that soon--and I'm not just sayin' that, only to forget later, 'cause I already have notes typed up for it. I just need to be in ( Read more... )

It's 8:35pm and I have realized that my evening is more "free" than it has been... there are dishes to be done, and of course there are always a few things in the background to get to "eventually," but I mean that I have an open space here instead of the usual default lately of popping in a random movie, and cross-stitching. I finished my first ( Read more... )

My brain feels all chaotic. I feel like I have been dealing with a lot of numbers and organization lately, and I think it's catching up with me. Taxes, finances, making appointments, canceling subscriptions, following the Democratic primaries (go Obama!)... And today at work I started a project that's more challenging logic/math-wise than most-- ( Read more... )

So lately everyone has been changing their Myspace/facebook/etc. statuses to something like "Raoul is sick of winter!" At the moment I am pretty cold--haven't thawed out from the day yet (it's freezing at work!)... but even so I had to appreciate winter today. After last night's storm, everything is coated in a thin, glistening layer of ice. ( Read more... )

I have too much to do today... but I THINK I can manage it all. Maybe it will be enough running around to make me sleepy enough to get to bed "early," even though I slept 'til almost 2pm today. (crap!) First I gotta fill out one last tax form for my returns (a signature to accompany my e-filing) and drop that in the mail. Then I'll head up to ( Read more... )

Ahhhhhh, Saturday. I'm a fan. I stayed up faaaaaar too late (early) last night (this morning) with a couple glasses of wine and chatting online, but I made a point not to sleep into the afternoon, so I don't think I've screwed up my sleep schedule too badly. Not that it has been a good one in the first place. I keep thinking I should try ( Read more... )
