I've been away for a long time, though I've checked in now and then on my flist, even though most of you are on Facebook. It's been a weird few years. My landlady's dog died. I broke up with the Duckman, though we're still friends. I've had two stints at more or less managing the store where I work, the second one being much more successful than ( Read more... )

So, here I am, back from Hawaii. And I did get all burned up. The Duckman has proof, and I'll post the picture as soon as I can load a copy onto my 'puter. I'm almost all healed now, though ( Read more... )

The results have been returned for the Grade 2 W.O.M.B.A.T.S and I achieved an Exceeds Expectations. I'm fairly happy with that, since I only cheated on one answer. (Hags apparantly eat small children. I did not know this.) Next time, I'm hoping for an Outstanding.

The Duckman and I had a lovely Thanksgiving. We had a M&M Meatshops stuffed turkey ( Read more... )

Peeps go to the library.

For Valentine's Day, Duckman and I e-mailed. He sent me a picture of a kitten with a rose. Awww. But this week is his Reading Week, so we're going to have a special Valentine's Day in the mountains. Hee.

Cool Money is going to be replayed on the USA network. Please, if anyone can tape it and send it, I would be in your ( Read more... )

OK, so since Duckman is going back to school, and the house is so cluttered that there is really only one room in which he can study, and that is the same room as the TV, and I will not give up my TV addiction (really, I can quit anytime), I am taking an apartment for the school season. It is really a great apartment, details to follow once I've ( Read more... )

Updating because someone mentioned that I don't. {{Hugs}} bodpod . *g ( Read more... )

It's been raining a lot lately and the basement leaked once before, but since it's been raining so much without much sign of water, I got lax in checking the basement. Duckman comes home and heads straight down, and lo and behold, there is a pool of water snaking its way across the floor. Duckman converts the shop-vac to "wet". I alternatly ( Read more... )

I have a job!!! It's a survival job, sure, but it's an income. It's a sales job at a bedding store in the mall that I worked at a few years ago. I bought my own duvet there and I remember that they gave great customer service. I was very pleased with the experience. I'm also back on-line, abusing AOL again until I can find a real ISP ( Read more... )

...I'd probably update this more.

Finished Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, finally. Duckman finished it in a day when he read it and he was surprised that I took over a week. But I don't sit and read straight for hours and hours. I read when I'm waiting for the bus or before I go to bed ( Read more... )
