Don't go to Linens 'n' Things.
So today I went linen shopping. This is something that's been overdue for a while; I have two futons and no full-size sheets. So I went to Linens 'n' Things to get some sheets. I got two sets of full sheets and one full-size blanket.

Stupid dishwashers
Anybody know any good products that actually get the dishes clean as well as shiny? I did my first load of dishes in my new dishwasher last night, and when I got up this morning, it had gotten the old, dried-on dust gunk from my work mug (now you know why I stopped using it), but there was still oatmeal on the outside of yesterday morning's bowl ( ( Read more... ) -
I'm back
Got in safely this morning, after crashing at a Super8 just north of Tucson. (I tried to find one sooner, but ended up taking an alternate route instead.) :/ Anyway. Am back, am busy. Will post later with details. -
Thank you so *very* much....
I now have Lords of Acid stuck in my head. I'd write down the lyrics, but they're *not* work appropriate. (bashes head against desk again)

Whew
So this morning, having the day off, I decided to try out a bellydancing workout video I'd checked out from the local library a couple of weeks ago. In the beginning of the video, the instructor said there were two types of bellydancing -- high-energy and sinuous. She was going to use the sinuous type for this workout. Cool, I thought. I might ( Read more... ) -
I arrived at work this morning....
My supervisor pulled me aside as soon as she saw me at work this morning. I had left early to attend class yesterday, so I'd missed a mandatory meeting at 4:45, and she needed to brief me on the contents of that meeting ( Read more... ) -
Oh. This.
Doing homework this afternoon, I rediscovered a joy in calculation that I'd nearly forgotten. If only I didn't have to stop in order to leave and eat dinner and go to choir.... -
Two Encounters
This morning, waiting for a meeting, I sat down and picked up a book; Owlflight, by Mercedes Lackey, which I find useful for filling up small doses of time without me worrying about being so engrossed that I can't put it down when I need to. A short while later, a co-worker came up; let's call her R ( Read more... ) -
Why I dislike pop songs, or: a critical evaluation of the song in my head
My car radio station gets changed on a fairly regular basis, but in my small town, there are three non-country stations that I rotate among: the oldies, the classical, and the "80s, 90s, and today!" The classical mostly gets changed because my boyfriend can't listen to it while driving without falling asleep; the other two rotate because of ads ( Read more... )
