It doesn't feel like Thursday. I've had to regularly remind myself that today is not Wednesday, and the weekend is almost upon us. Scarlett will be home from camp on Saturday. I'll keep her home unless her dad calls at the last minute. We might attend something at Festivall this weekend, I don't know yet. I am planning to bring her to work with me on Monday and give her some tasks to help me get my office back in order. IF my boss will let me - got to check with him on that tomorrow, after I'm a bit more sure that she will indeed be with me this weekend.

Had a good cry and talk with Brent last night, nothing specific just generalities about how shitty I feel during ovulation (yes, that's like 3 times in 6 weeks). It helped a great deal to get me out of my funk and more cheerfully face my daily routine. And that's a Good Thing.TM 


I have been playing with Microsoft Office 2007 for the last 10 days or so.  It's very interesting, and not as hard as it looks on first glance. Actually some things are much simpler, and all the programs use lots of graphics to represent functions rather than just words. That's very helpful!  

Brent has sent out his first resume'. I think we are in for a lot of mood swings over the next few months while he tries to find another job.  He's SO melodramatic that it's quickly tiresome but part of the reason I love him is his passion.  I just wish his passion didn't extend to things like hearing that I'm hungry about 15 minutes after I told him that I wasn't hungry.  I heard on "According to Jim" the other day that not everything HAS to be a nine on your reactionary scale of one to ten. Some things are a two.  Car accident with no injuries? That's an 8.  Mismatched socks? That's a two. So now when he starts to whine about something, I remind him:  "This is a two Brent. It's just a two."  Don't you love inside jokes and special conversation codes that you use within your family?  

I've been playing Literati online at night.  I'm losing, miserably, but I do enjoy it.  I've always like Scrabble, and this is basically the same thing except it's free.  I have Bookworm at home, but I have played it so much that I'm getting burned out.  I think I'll take some new games to Brent's house this evening.  He trounced me at Rummy last night, even drunk. Bastard. But there again, that's a two. Actually that's a one or negative one on my scale. I SOOO do not care about winning or losing at cards.  I still shuffle better than he does. 

I think that's all.  I've got to get a few packages out, probably this weekend, of items I've sold on eBay.  I'm not doing very well there, my prices are either too low, or too high, depending.  I've managed to avoid making any purchases for about a month now. I even broke my habit of looking at the purses, etc.  I'm quite proud of myself.

Thank you! He likes it too, I think.
