I think it has something to do with the softness and/or the hardness of the lead. Not that I know...I'm just sayin' that might be what Pamy meant.

01. This conversation has DEFINITELY deteriorated while I was working today. 02. Bill (DH) was asked about teaching at the Vegas Art Institute for 11 weeks, since UNLV's Continuing Ed program dried up for the summer. 03. The course is 4 hours a week (8A-12PM), and would definitely require a cab ride; otherwise, it is a 3-bus trip (starting at 5AM), plus about a 1.5 mile walk one-way. 04. So a cab is a must--which will be $40/week; so pay needs to be worth it. 05. In the "It doesn't rain, but pour" department, Bill received a call from a former consulting client. 06. Client wanted to know if he was still interested in teaching Game Design. 07. Bill assented, and was given a proposal for teaching full time. 08. There is still a lot of discussion involved, but the company is in... 09. New Brunswick, Canada.

1) Ten for me, huh? 2) Big news: I did it! I got the promotion!!! I will be training new employees in my company! 3) Raise is good! 4) Lots of travel, though! 5) I'm super excited! 6) I celebrated with DH and DS last night! 7) I needed Aleve at 4 am! 8) Can you guess why? 9) New job does not involve #12 pencils! 10) Happy weekend all!

01) Thanks for the congrats, all! 02) I'm nervous though, seems awful "clique-y" at the top! 03) Trying to remind myself that they wouldn't have chosen me if the didn't actually like me -- right???

01. Yankee: Nothing is definite and we are still pursuing all angles. (It is funny, tho, about how when you open your mind to the possibility, a bunch of them leap into your lap.) 02. Well, the only thing that IS definite is that I have to really finish decluttering. 03. And get a bunch of loose ends tied up. 04. But it is all stuff I would have to do regardless; now I just have a more definitive need to get the decks cleared out.

1. I am living in "Boxville" and am tired of it. BUT the house is nearly packed except for the garage, kitchen and bathrooms. I have to pack my office at the university and at church and then I'm done! WHEW! 2. Played in my first "Magic the Gathering" tournament today and came in second! I beat the owner of the store, which was a surprise. My student won, as usual! 3. Garage sale was a waste of time today, but I DID sell my non-working refridgerator. Yesterday was SO much better...well, selling a clarinet and a trumpet helped. 4. I'm tired of doing yard sales and will NOT be having another one before I move. 5. I have blisters the size of quarters and half dollars on both feet from walking around in NYC. Hopefully they will be better before I have to play for church on Sunday!

1. I am home...sunburned and extremely tired and sore 2. Just played 4 games of baseball in past 24 hours (my team is in a tourney this weekend) 3. It is finally warm here in S/W Ontario 4. Our motto today was (referring to the warm weather and playing sweltering sun in the mid of afternoon with no breeze or clouds)"We're bitchin' but we're not bitchin'

1. i just got done flipping my mattress over. it slipped out of my hand and ripped part of one of my fingernails past the quick.....can i just say OUCH! i sealed it with superglue, but it still hurts like hell! 2. seems our streak of constant rain has stopped, at least for the weekend. yay! i layed out yesterday and got a nice tan. 3. friday night i went to see a group called lost highway at a local bar. they were so good! they play mostly 80's covers, and some more modern stuff. i'm thinking i'll have to go see them again sometime soon. only problem is the bar is so small and it is hell trying to find somewhere to set! 4. i watched the butterfly effect last night. so weird! i also bought miracle. i LOVE that movie. 5. i have been working some overtime at work lately because it is busy! bad part is, they don't get you the parts to build the stuff with until it is almost time to go home (or even AFTER you are supposed to go home!). i refuse to work weekends, because i think that is like giving in and saying i will do it all the time (give an inch...) so i will come in early or stay late, but no weekends! so i will be going in tomorrow at 5 am (YUCK!) happy sunday everyone!

1. It must be mattress-flipping day because I flipped mine, too. 2. I did not rip my nail doing it and for that I am grateful. 3. The sun is shining beautifully here for the first time in several days of rain showers. 4. I tried to watch "The Royal Tennebaums" last night, but I couldn't get my dvd player to work...I think that's my problem, not its. 5. Going to the flea market later this afternoon because I do not have enough junk already. 6. Plan to sit out in the sun and enjoy it while I can...if the deck cushions have dried out enough.

01. I think our numbering got off again. 02. We went from 5 to 4 to 5 and 6 again. 03. We bought sand last night to put on the plants today to smother the fungi gnats. 04. Our viscosity foam mattress never has to be flipped. 05. I am tossing more stuff today. 06. I am almost out of big, black garbage bags. 07. I am going to have a battle with DH over books: he was appalled at the idea put forth on Mission Organization yesterday of bring in one new book and remove one old book.

01. I don't think he realizes how much books are going to cost to move. 02. On the other hand, I have a lot of book too, but I do cycle out a lot of books I won't reuse, reread, etc. 03. So, I have a lot, but not as many. 04. I have figured out how to create both a craft area and a dining room in the dining room area. 05. I need to get a desk for the area, and I found the perfect one. 06. Now to get it when the check comes in. 07. DH's birthday check from my mom came in, so I have $500 to spend on his office stuff. 08. His desk ensemble is on MAJOR sale: desk was $169.99, on sale for $79.99; the hutch and the filing cabinet were $89.99/each and are now $69.99/each; so, I'll be saving $130.00 on his birthday project.

1. Congrats, Luvmyjrt!! And Eggie, so glad things are going smoothly for you. I loved the "I came back" remark! 2. I nominate Hermi, GAL and Jbean to write Updates regularly!! I never fail to laugh when they share. 3. OMG--I hadn't seen that pic of Scott. I knew there was a reason I didn't like the guy. Ewwwwww! Whoever lied to him and told him he was all that? 4. We're going to Candlewood Lake tonight for shrimp! Yay, esp cuz the flank steak I was defrosting is still frozen! 5. Dh had a bad night last night, with lots of pain in his butt and left calf (due to have bypass surgery on the 28th). 6. This morning, he was still in pain. 7. He spoke to the surgeon on call for his surgeon, and was told it was probably nothing to worry about and should talk to his doc tomorrow, unless things get worse. Then he should go to our local hospital. 8. He felt increasingly better as the day has gone on. Whew! Glad we avoided that scenario for now. 9. No more dog walking for him for a loooonnnng time! Glad he opted for surgery sooner rather than later, too!

1. Things are all out of whack here. 2. The fridge, stove, my bed, dressers, and washer are all at the other house. 3. I'm sleeping on the floor here and most of my clothes are over there. 4. The phone has been switched over to the other house even tho we aren't living there yet. 5. Verizon has already shutdown our email so I had to change to a hotmail account. 6. Its hotter than crap here and I'm totally isolated with hubby at work and I have no phone. 7. I'm so sick of moving AND sleeping on the floor I'm going to ask my doctor to put me in the hospital for a while til hubby gets everything moved and settled. Hey, 3 meals a day and a comfy bed. Sounds like heaven to me. 8. Here if it has to be refridgerated it better fit in one of 2 coolers that we have to keep adding ice to. And if we want to cook something it has to be done in the toaster oven or the microwave. 9. I'm dying to call my daughter and I have no phone!!!! WAAAAAAAAA
