busy business

4 Comments

Today I called in to work, a mental health day. They said, “Okay, take care of yourself! Be well!” And then proceeded to call or text me every ten minutes for two hours. I’m totally billing for those hours. Arg!

Then I went and took a ton of crap to Goodwill, though our house still seems to be overflowing with stuff.

I went shopping and found none of the stuff I was looking for, but I did get the new William Gibson book. I plan to do nothing on Friday night and Saturday day but read it cover to cover. I’m so excited I want to walk around hugging it to my chest.

Came home set the computer up on real table rather than a TV tray and re-did the nasty electrical mess of extension cords (now replaced with one power strip so hopefully we won’t all blow up). Put together the new desk chair and woo! Actually a reasonable place to sit at the computer now.

Now I’m doing laundry and watching CSI with H and K and plotting what to do next. I found the remote control for my digital camera, so maybe I’ll go play with that. Or clean my room. Or perhaps lay around and do nothing.

I can’t imagine how much more I’d get done if I didn’t have to work during the day.

Here is a picture of my butt in Arkansas that daft took. I don’t know why, but I really like it.

Also, had a great time with the rabid mob of girls last weekend. I’m too lazy to type it up, but smonsterbite has a decent sum up of it.

  1. Your hair is gorgeous in that photo.

    Wow, they actually let you take mental health days? Well, sort of? I never admit to it when I do, ‘cuz I’m too afraid to.

  2. Woo!! BUTT! I will always think of you as blonde, for some reason.

    And also. TURN OFF THE PHONE. *ahem* Really glad you took the day though. Even working from home helps sometimes.

  3. That’s a lovely picture.

  4. I just got my hands on the new WG yesterday! Looking forward to sitting down with it myself.
