State of the Brain
I don't mean to sound like I'm complaining, I just need to get this all on paper.
We have a number of expenses coming up. Laura's car needs a couple of new tires - one of them leaks and will go flat if she doesn't fill it up every couple days. The pipes in the house (almost all of them) need to be replaced, because they generate so much rust that the shower is destroyed. (We called the plumber to check out the water pressure - we're getting so little pressure that the diverter won't stay up, so it's really just a bathtub.) We have relatively mandatory landscaping which is a couple years overdue, which includes re-grading the dirt around the house to prevent flooding. One of the cats is not well and needs to visit the vet. My 160GB iPod (from 2007) died sometime last week. I'd like to get it to an Apple store for them to diagnose, but I don't have much hope. I use it almost every day at work to generate enough background noise that I can work and yesterday I was pretty lost without it. (I might be able to stream music at work, but we're not supposed to.) And I still haven't replaced my Blackberry. I'm using Ben's old phone, but I prefer the fixed keyboard. I just hate to spend money, you know? And that's the problem.
The Microsoft Ignite conference last week was interesting and informative. Crown was fun. Devilish Children is up and running and REALLY GOOD. Alligator started rehearsal last night. Telephone/Hello Out There is the last two weekends of May.
I have a dentist appointment today. Laura has one in a few weeks. She also has an MRI appointment we need to make.
I'm a little scattered. Music keeps me sane...
Right. End of line.
