Ignoring all major unhappinesses entirely, within the past week I’ve dealt with:
- a broken car (now returned, thankfully. iPod hookup still kaflooey though)
- a broken laptop (wine + laptop = bad juju. also, thankfully, now working. yah for quick thinking and a spray bottle of water!)
- a burnt-out lightbulb (still burnt out…waaaaaaaaay too high in bedroom ceiling to reach. approach TBD)
- a broken puppy-treat canister (1 gallon size, almost full. yah Dyson hand vac and puppy not knowing how to get off couch)
- a broken stereo component (still officially broken, but I’ve figured out a workaround)
- (ETA) Did I mention the puppy chewed my *good*, new shoes? (not her fault, as she just thought she’d found a chewey, but still…)

I meant to toss some virtual hugs your way after your last post – was thinking about you today, even. *Hugs*!! Hope the gremlins go away and leave your stuff alone!
Would you be available to do lunch sometime?

I’d love that — what about next Tuesday or Friday? (Or Mon/Tue of the week following?)
thanks for the hugs!

We’ve got a long extend-a-pole with various lightbulb changing attachments. (You’ve seen our house. We needed this.) I’d be happy to bring it by and help counter a small amount of your entropy.
And speaking of coming by … do you have plans Friday evening?
*hug*

Tried to post earlier, was in class all day (Sharepoint — eek!) and PDA was not being as online friendly as I wish.
Can’t this Friday — you know me — *hate* being alone on weekends under the best of circumstances, so I’m booking as much as possible. What about either Friday 16th or Sat. 10th?
Thanks for offer of bulb-changing technology — I’ll take you up on that! (It can wait ’till we see each other; thankfully I am of the Many Lights [not thousand points of] type).

ROTFLOL. If it were only bones I’d be happy!
She is a monster chewer — can take down a Greenie in seconds! And then there are the nice leather shoes…sigh.
How old is Audrey?

Upon re-reading that parsed as “resent it too” in the “angry about it” sort of way… :-)

“frustrated about it” at best.. but only with the technology… I emailed you directly everything I sent using that beastly site.. ;-)
