Hey, wow, what is this strange, unfamiliar action?
Oh, that's right. It's updating.
Trippy.
Anyway, the last few days have been quite hectic. We're getting hardwood flooring put in 4 rooms of our house, and that's been...eventful, to say the least. The other day the construction guys blew a circuit breaker. A few outlets didn't work, plus we had no internet for a while, so we had to call an electrician. Then we found out that one of our floors is uneven, so we had to get that taken care of. One of the cats stepped in the wet cement(we suspect it was Simon), so we'll have to do something about that. Today they were installing the border that goes between the wall and the floor. In our living room, they carefully cut it so that it borders the screen door and efficiently blocks it from moving. So one of our doors is stuck wide open until tomorrow when they come back. >.o We duct-taped a blanket over the doorway, which seemed to help. They won't be done until Thursday, so who knows what the next few days will bring...
In other news, I repacked my 4 boxes of stuff approximately 20 times each, but I finally got them where they need to be. I learned the importance of insuring your packages and of allowing other people to help you lift them. I re-learned to love that old blue hand-me-down sweatshirt. I baked sugar cookies and used up a lot of flour. I realized that 60 ounces of candy is, in fact, a hell of a lot, that I'm really, really gonna miss my job, and that I think my job will miss me, too.
Okay...I think that just about covers it! Wait, that's right, I forgot to mention that I leave on Friday for Santa Cruz. ^^ Yay! Of course, I still have to finish that essay.
...shit.
