I Do Actually Have Stuff To Write About.

First, even though I think many of you already know this, at least two of you dear readers do not so here it goes: the countdown for my parents last Sunday in CT has officially begun. Yes, my father has a new job in Ellsworth, ME starting later on this month. Before you ask, no, they'll be only an hour closer to me. My mother is still looking for work but I think something will turn up. This of course means that my two CT readers will not likely see me in person any time soon unless you come to me which you're welcome to do so.

The Boston sports world has been interesting as of late. The Sox picking up Eric Gagne is a cool move and I think trading Dave Murphy was probably a good move as the major league squad has Coco and his phenom Jacoby Ellsbury in the wings so we can part with a center fielder. I am not happy about them giving Kason Gabbard. I don't think Schilling will be as good as the management apparently thinks he is. We'll have to see of course but I'm already gritting my teeth.

On the basketball front, the Celtics picking up Kevin Garnett to have a "Big Three" if you will was also an interesting move. Given the lackluster quality of the division they're in, they should do well. As my father said the other day, I may want to watch a game for more than a minute without getting totally disgusted. I can't tell you how long it's been since I actually cared about this sport. Hell, the best thing about the b-ball Hall of Fame is Max's Tavern...

Today at work, in addition to the inventory and assigning call numbers, I also learned how to pack in-state Inter-library Loan (ILL) packages. I stayed about 4 hours today which is the most I've stayed yet.

Random Comments Into My Life

We did yardwork yesterday. I picked up a lot of sticks. Home Depot sucks on a Friday morning. My father and I went to get a new gascan for the mower and there was only one employee around to help us...and she didn't know anything about how these new fangled gas cans work... So due to a bank error when I reset my bank account so I could accurately keep track again, I had like a hundred dollars less in my account than I thought so my last bill payment put me in the hole. This would've been all right and easily fixed if I had been paid for the last week of my mailroom job but, oddly, I still have not been even though it's been weeks. I don't know if I can accurately convey how infuriated this makes me. If it doesn't happen soon, heads will roll! Also yesterday I re-watched the Enterprise episode "Regeneration"; this time with audio commentary from the writers. They made some valid points I hadn't considered on the issue of if this episode screws with...

Remind Me

Remind me to complain how boring and unexciting my life more often because as soon as I did, it got really exciting really fast. Last night, we had four visitors arrive from Korea. They like ziti and garlic bread. Go figure. They will be staying until Sunday night. I told my mother (AKA Hyacinth Bucket) she was making way too much salad but did she listen? No. Now we have this huge-ass bowl of salad in the fridge...What's really irritating is first the fork we use to serve catfood went missing now Susie's dish is missing as well... Tomorrow, I have a physical to prepare for my surgery then I go to my orthopedist's to fill out consent forms. Woo Hoo! I hope I can find time for a haircut as well because... Friday, I have a job interview at a library in Massachusetts! It's a reference job but I also will be conducting a book group. I've never done that but it sounds really fun. Sure, I'll be stuck reading many book that sucks but isn't that what book group i...

Your soul is bound to the Second Totem, Luna: The Wolf . Luna appears as a pair of coral colored wolves. She embodies empathy, nurturing, insight, and warmth . She is associated with the color coral, the season of spring, and the element of wind. Her downfall is pathos. You are most compatible with Doves and Ravens. Which Animal Spirit Totem Are You? brought to you by Quizilla I think I only clicked one of those qualities; maybe more. Odd but at least I'm not a Cockroach...
