Because I make it a habit to do whatever Erin does (witness the Dyson and unspeakable acts of high school journalism), I finally to-did the item on my to-do list about finding a company to measure the half of our house that has no blinds, for blinds. (Yes, I know.) (September 2000.) (Yeah, we actually had…

Nothing New
Still no stupid dress. Ugh. Maybe one more trip to Kohl’s. I almost went tonight but just couldn’t force myself out of my chair. Is today Monday or Tuesday? I think it is Tuesday because I think I deposited my paycheck yesterday (yea, paycheck!). After work yesterday (now I know it’s Tuesday) I went to…
Elaine’s Spring Break 2006
So, did I tell you all that Gene left me? For a week, people. Geez. He's gone to Colorado for a class. He's driving so it takes 3 days to get there. So, I have been left ALONE and UNCHAPERONED for 1 week and TWO weekends. It boggles the mind. It is literally like having…
Happy Birthday to Me!
So, today’s my birthday. I’m 29. This is my first crack at 29. I intend to repeat a year, possibly more than once. This year, Gene was the first person to wish me a happy birthday. Then, New Boss and assorted BFAs. Then D. There were others, of course, but those were the early ones. D,…
Ooh!
I just figured out I can do this. I can’t wait to play with that feature. I’ve been looking forward to it!! Not a lot new here. I’ve been working very hard as it’s a payroll week. No matter how much I get done there’s more left to replace it. I haven’t taken a proper…
Awesome-O! (The Conclusion…?)
So, apparently the vet’s office actually listens to their voicemail!! Score one! They called about quarter til 8 this morning re: Awesome-O. About ten minutes later, a man calls so he can retrieve his dog… Awesome-O! (No, actually, Bennie). He’s not here yet but I’m sure he’ll show up soon. I love it when things…
Awesome-O!
So, Gene had the car today so he could go to the closing of our re-fi. (Yes, we finally ditched our awful interest only mortgage). He picked me up from work and we drove down the highway but exited 3 miles before our exit. Hmmm. We drive around a neighborhood for no aparent reason. This…
I Ain’t Got Nobody!
Gene’s in VA. Dogs are at the kennel. CAR is still in shop. So, internet, it’s just you, me and the Altima. I take back my earlier dismissal of the Altima. While I’m still relieved I didn’t buy one, it’s kind of fun to drive a car with a little pep. The Murano is too…
Wheee!!
News on the MIL: None at this time. She’s been home from the hospital since Monday. I’ve spoken to her and she sounds good, but tired. She actually had to get off the phone one of those times because she was too tired to talk. That’s a rarity for my MIL! Unrelated, but here’s what’s…
Elaine, the 2006 Model: Now with extra bronchitis!
(But still whooping cough free!)
