I don’t have a whole lot to say about yesterday. Before we even left for Mom’s, Lin had to do some work. Then we get there and are just sitting down to lunch when Lin drops the bombshell about how if everything works out we would be going to Chicago for Xmas. Gee … thanks. I know I told him I hadn’t mentioned it to Mom yet, and that mentioning it was going to cause grief. I didn’t specifically tell him NOT to mention it, because I didn’t think I needed to. I guess I did. Then he got her started on having a yard sale (and was siding with her). Finally, he was picking on me in general in an unpleasant way. After each of these turd-droppings, he’d disappear to smoke a cigarette, play his guitar or sit on the porch to read. It’s almost as if he wanted me to have a stressful day.

So yeah, I don’t have a whole lot to say about yesterday.

Oh, and after all that work to get the boxes out of the living room? Guess what?! Mom sent along a whole bunch of boxes of Commodore computer crap that now I have to get rid of. I already have a complete system in my box room (in a box), and I really didn’t need the combined collection of my entire family’s Commodore 64 stuff yet too. It has to go. I doubt it is worth selling, so I am going to go through it to dig out my favorite old games, and then I am going to give it to anyone who wants it … so long as they take it all ASAP. I really don’t want it, and I don’t want boxes in my living room. I worked so hard to clear that corner out!

I don’t have much to say about today yet either. I’m tired, cranky, and have a million things to do … none of which I feel like dealing with today. I guess I’ll clean the kitchen (it needs it), play with the kittens, and then run to the store for a few things we need. What I really need to do is clean out the Dart and take it to get inspected, but I am not looking forward to that. I just never know whether it will pass or not, and now it’s the last two days of the month, so getting it done is going to be insane and take forever. I completely forgot to do it last week. Ugh, I just remembered I have to fix the wipers first. Crappity, crap, crap.

And of course, it’s looking like it wants to rain today. Double crappity, crap, crap. Maybe I’ll just clean the kitchen, play with kittens and flip off the rest of my responsibilities for the day.

You know what is really chapping my hide at this very moment? How everyone wants me to do things for them to help them or “serve” them in some way, but when I need for want something done, ain’t nobody going to do it but myself unless I throw a fit or beg. Yup, getting really sick of that. Just every once in a while, it would be nice if people would consider that I have needs and wants that could use filling my other people … and then they’d fill them, rather than sitting around whining about what I can do for them or what I haven’t done for them.

I better get back to the kitchen cleaning. This post is going nowhere fast and threatens to just be a huge Orb pity party and rant-fest.
