Re: What's up with you?
I was at the local summer festival petitioning for Amnesty Int. but it started raining after 1.5 hours (we were supposed to stay 4 hours), so we pulled the plug after half an hour of rain and left. No good writing in the rain..

Re: What's up with you?
It's looking like we might have to move. There's something going on with our rental house, but the landpeople are not being forthcoming about it. We think it might be getting forclosed out from under us. We've known this was an issue for a while, and I was kind of hoping it would be taken care of before I moved out here, but then I moved three months early (I'm not even supposed to be here yet). At any rate, I haven't unpacked half my shit and now I don't have to. I'm looking on the bright side of maybe getting a nicer place, but still it's kind of a bitch to move again when I just did in May.

Re: What's up with you?
We took a day trip to Port Townsend, WA yesterday and ended up spending the whole day there. We've decided that's where we should be living.
When we got home I looked online & found a 680 sq. ft. cottage for about $225k. Looks like we'll be staying here for awhile.

Re: What's up with you?
We are back to looking for a house to buy. That last one that we bid on didn't work out. We looked at a house earlier this week that we've nicknamed the Winchester house because it has three (or four?) rooms added on the back that don't make a whole lot of sense. It has a big living room and a huge master bedroom but it has a kitchen about the size of a gnat fart. There is a fireplace in the garage. (???) There are two other fireplaces, one in the living room and one in an enclosed patio space. It sits on five lots and has a second garage as well as a couple of sheds out back.
It's quirky and we're considering it.

Re: What's up with you?
Hey quirky is a good thing. We live in a crooked house with a crooked driveway and there is this bent out of shape old man that keeps things going around the old place. I kinda like it.

Re: What's up with you?
I'm getting a vasectomy tomorrow. That's news.
I plan to spend the afternoon laying on the couch, with a pack of frozen peas on my nuts, playing bridge online.

I had it done last August. No big deal. I'd be more anxious about certain dental procedures.

Oh right, I forgot we are nearly the same age. My 40th is this December also.
Um, I don't need a bracelet by the way, thanks.

Re: What's up with you?
I gots internets back at home! So if you have been missing me hanging around in the evenings that will change. If you haven't, well, sucks to be you. I'm BAAAAACK!
Of course with my courseload right now, I really shouldn't spend too much time playing around with y'all, but I know I won't be able to help myself.

Re: What's up with you?
See, this is unacceptable...you need to hang around more during the day, b/c I'm never around in the evenings.

Re: What's up with you?
As you can see, I'll be around in the afternoons too. But I'll be at uni, except for the weekends.

Re: What's up with you?
The Li'l Puppet has been absolutely fiending for a pet. Her first choice was a puppy, but we just weren't ready for that kind of a commitment (Mrs. Puppet is seeking full-time employment, yadda). So we did something I had vowed never to do again ... and got a bird.
However, this one is a female budgie rather than a male cockatiel, so the annoyance factor will be significantly lower. Her body featherage is mostly lavendar. I didn't even know they came in that hue. So Li'l Puppet named her Lily. She's pretty damned cute, I must admit. And LP has been informed that with this addition to the fambly, the puppy scenario is on indefinite hold and a cease & desist on all puppy-begging is in effect.
... a cat was always off the table due to my allergies and Mrs. Puppet's asthma. I frankly wouldn't mind a cat if it weren't for those issues.

Re: What's up with you?
I had my second set of hearings today. Unfortunately, I don't think the judge liked me and he berated me about a request I had previously considered so minor that it hadn't even made it into the OMG nerves picture. I hate learning experiences, but I can see how it makes you better.
Whatev! Tomorrow's Friday!

Excellent...Wise, but y'all should be prepared for the "I dood really well with the budgie, now can I have a puppy?"
I personally hail the choice of a bird, but I have to point out to you that budgie eggs are pretty damned small...I haven't the slightest how many you'll need just for an omelet.
