Grrr. Not only am I up way too early (couldn’t get back to sleep), I wrote a comment to a post in someone’s LJ, then realized that Sam had left himself logged in. I deleted the comment, signed in as…
Financial Aid Fumbles Again
“All operators are currently helping other students at this time.” 1) There’s one, count them, one, “operator” in the department. And you are, in fact, a receptionist. So the use of the plural and the noun choice are incorrect. 2)…
Word Rant, Bedroom Stuff, and Phone Jacks
Interesting puzzles: http://www.blindchicken.com/~ali/games/puzzles.html The enormous, baroque bedroom furniture is gone! Well, the two mirrors and one lamp wouldn’t fit in the truck or wordcandlemage‘s car, but there’s none of it in our bedroom anymore. And the two oak chests of…
Yes, I’ve Probably Gone Right Over the Edge
I’m reading Sink Reflections, the book by Marla Cilley (aka FlyLady). A friend loaned me her copy. There’s some interesting stuff in there, but for me, getting to it requires pushing past the anti-feminist slant and Christian stuff. I’m annoyed…

Med Woes
Interesting – Operation Beta Wave. I like this RSS feed and I want more people to read it so it doesn’t cost so many points, so I’m gonna pimp it: kissliving.
More Bureaucracy
sambear needs loving not-sick thoughts. He has food poisoning. He dragged himself out of bed long enough to call UHaul to check on our reservation, and it’s a good thing he did—they thought we were coming to get a truck…
Net Is Back!
This is my first net fix since Saturday! At least sambear FINALLY found out (supposedly) what the problem was. Supposedly our account was disabled in their system. They don’t know why—it was paid in full. We strongly suspect that it…
