aw crap. can a mod add the "more inside" bit, since I'm a tool and forgot?

Dear tool, I did the "more inside". Also want to see a pic of the cute shoes.

Since I did the bad, now I'll do the good.

1) In doing my figures I realized I have too many for the poster but am getting enough for a decent paper! Yay!

2) The weather is gorgeous and I can go home now.

3) HOCKEY and TRIVIA tonight...could things possibly get any better?

Oh wait, they could if a cute guy shows up to the GC later so I can hit on him. It would be even nicer if he wasn't a dick, somewhat interesting and related to Bill Gates.

1. I got a house! Yes! I have rented a small 1950s ranch house with a fireplace and a dishwasher and a garage and paneling in the den and a big deck and a huge backyard in a nice leafy green neighborhood right near a park and it's only $75 more a month than the house I'm living in right now. I get the keys a week from today and am hoping to move the bulk of my stuff next weekend. Bonus: there's a vaudeville troupe living across the street.

2. Yesterday I got to: 1) go take pictures of huge emeralds and 2) have drinks with my mom & some antique dealing friends of ours, which led to a lot of interesting stories.

3. My mom offered to pay to get a fence installed at the new house! Hurrah! That means I won't have to build it myself which means that the dogs will not be as easily able to get out of it and alienate all my new neighbors.

Well done, mgl! When's the housewarming party?

1. I had a "career development" meeting over lunch with my big boss and it went really well. He brought to my attention potential growth opportunities within the company that I hadn't considered before so maybe I won't have to look for a new job anytime soon.

2. I'd been procrastinating on something for a meeting with my big boss' boss tomorrow and just when I was about to panic, it occurred to me that I'm almost done! Yay!

3. I signed up for a membership to the ROM today and I'm now really looking forward to indulging the museum nerd in me over the next year and a bit.

1. During our session this morning, my physical therapist surprised me by saying I was all done. He gave me instructions to maintain my exercises at home, and sent me on my way. Yay!

2. I walked home in the sun, smiling.

3. I'm reading Carol J. Clover's Men, Women, and Chainsaws: Gender in the Modern Horror Film. Halfway through, I don't agree with all of her assertions and conclusions, but it's riveting.

Yay, mgl!

bonus #4
Went outside for a smoke, there was a super-cute sales guy who complimented me on my shirt... and it turns out his friend makes them, and he has a hookup for me on a Miller one. And I got to flirt! Which is so what I needed today.

1. The painkiller finally kicked in!
2. I finished knitting this really hippie lacey head scarf yesterday that I'm going to wear tonight.
3. Tonight: drinks with friends I rarely see, at my local, where Carbombs are on special on Thursdays.

1. mgl got a house!
2. I got a callback
3. (redacted)

Yay mgl!!!!

1. Took my cat to be fixed, so that's all out of the way.
2. Got to play in my garden and relax in the sun!
3. Short rainstorm, so I didn't have to water everything.

1. I think I wowed them at the honor society interview, today. Hopefully, I'll be invited to join.
2. The weather is perfect.

I'm still wating on three...

Excellent, mgl!
