Ah - lunch!

Pity...

Okay - Rick went out to get lunch as usual {since I can't drive, yet.} And he cpomes back within the usual time - since he went two different places. ^^

What I see is Rick coming in the back door, blinking twice. He asks the pressman if maybe he went out and grabbed the bag off the UPS truck. R. says 'noo...' and Rick starts, laughing; turning for the door. Then he explains that he left my lunch! - and his and R.'s - on the UPS truck's step when signing for a package.

*snicker* He's not going to live this down for a bit.

Well!

Suppose I should update...

Last week was a little special. *grin* Wednesday, I got to stay home. Thursday I cleaned up after the cleanup ^^ I swept and mopped because there weren't any inserts. None {except Sears} came in until Friday, when just one was in, instead of the usual two. So it was a lovely, slow week. I want more like that!

Wednesday - I went and looked at a possible house for me, but Wednesday night the realator decided she wanted someone else in there.

But! Friday there was a call and I went - to fill out the paperwork(!) for an apartment. I GOT THE KEYS THAT DAY!

It's a furnished apartment on the north side - right next to the train tracks. RIGHT next to the tracks. *snicker* There's a few things I'd like taken out - hopefully the matinece man will do so. I can put the computer in the living room...As soon as I get a phone line.

Though I haven't done the walk-through with the owner yet - she still hasn't gotten back with us. *sigh* I'm wary of putting my stuff in just yet - but...^^

It's got a microwave and a deep tub! Kinda small tho.

Hee!

An Introduction to the World

Web-Home of Parvastur Tultema, Tecilquar of the Spring-fed Field, Lover of Nature, Smiter of Idiots, Watch-Warden of the Squirrels of Inconvenience, Nazi of the Grocery, Wielder of Sword of Bronze and Emerald, Inciter of Bunnies, and Wereslut of a Thousand Forms.

Much more subtlety like that, and I'm going to have to become a used car salesman just to maintain my self-respect.

Being able to fly would be cool, but only if I could fly fast. Flying slow is floating, and that's just creepy.

Look, Lemmings -- a Cliff!
