France is only 2.5 hours away... it must be the metric measurements
French exchange student arrives tomorrow.
Bedroom is mostly packed. Bathroom is packed. Baby's room is half packed. Kitchen, dining, living room not packed. Must figure out how to dismantle drier to remove it, it's too wide for the door. Need figure out when to move plants. Plus, I want to move some plants from containers to ground, so must get that done soon. Movers for big furniture hired. The Blonde is awesome packer. There's dozens of boxes labelled and packed, so they're easy to move.
Ordered "Rosetta Stone" French v. 1. It arrives Thursday.
Ordered Maggie's Compendium (in book form). It arrives... ?
Cancelled SLO appearance-- must pack for moving, plus trial next week and boss will certainly want overtime.
Finished Rainbow-Las Vegas. Stupid helicopter. I didn't pay much attention to the story line, there were all these silly conversations in between levels, but the purpose was to shoot bad guys. (You can't negotiate with them, say, "I'll get you an Iced Latte if you just put down the weapon.")
Volunteered as parking crew for 4th of July at church. We had awesome seats. Nice 15 minute show. People pulling up: "How much is parking?" "Free." Then they'd go to the concession booth, "how much is the popcorn?" "Free." No, really, it is community service. (Okay, we're trying to lure people in. I think it's a nice gesture, but hardly a good way to get religious conversion. "They gave me free popcorn, so I knew this was where I wanted my soul saved.")
Migraine today.
Went to court for jury duty this morning, put it off for 3 weeks. Someone please explain why the two people running the office for the jury room open it at 8:15 a.m. (they were even later) when the notice tells you to be there by 8:00 a.m.? Thanks, I could have used an extra 45 minutes of sleep, guys. Then the two people ignore us until after 9:00 a.m. Were they doing anything? I was sitting near them, and it sounded like they were just gossiping. Argh. I was first in line for the postponement, so I got out of there about 9:10 a.m.
