Wednesday, Right.....?

I've lost track. My days of bliss will end soon, a crunch of bank numbers indicates the need for a job in the relatively near future. I still haven't gone out and driven around by myself much, Seattle is proving to be a lot more intimidating to me, as far as driving, than Silicon Valley ever was.

Carbata didn't want to let go of her Wisconsin identity. When I went to put on my new, plain, nondescript Washington license plates, one of the bolts on the front plate was bent and rusted, and I couldn't get it off for the life of me. holyoutlaw was out running errands, and the tools I had in my car weren't gonna cut it. I went inside to search for bigger tools, and I found some. Big wrench, more power, *grunt grunt!* Almost crushed my finger in the process, but I got the damn thing off! *RAWR!* I felt kinda sad though, Carbata looks like every other dark green Honda Civic on the road now. End of an era and all that....

I'm currently thinking that I'll probably stay in this house for a long time. While there are stresses here that will take time to work out, I don't feel the need for my own apartment the way I thought I would before I arrived. At times I miss the privacy and solitude I had before, but getting to fall asleep next to someone I love every night makes up for it.

Hills = Old As...

I happened to glance at my info page just now and saw the new thing where you can list the schools you went to. You can go to the journals of everyone else who went to your school. Of about 30 people listed, all but maybe two of them were born well after I graduated. I could be their mom. *shudder* There was a link to my school's website. A faculty list shows very few teachers I remember. I suppose a few of them have actually died...

I'm perfectly happy being the age that I am most of the time, I have no qualms about listing my birthday or the years that I went to high school. I'm usually far more uncomfortable admitting the fact that I never went to college. People just look at you differently as soon as you say that.
