same old same old
- As mentioned previously, new café computer for the counter (i.e., me!). With gorgeous flat panel monitor. Finally got it swapped out with our other (faithful, hearty, but old) computer on Thursday night. The only drawback is that it's still not a Mac. ;)
- Still waiting on word regarding the house situation. The appraisal went well, at least I hope it did, since I haven't heard the results of the appraisal. I suppose I should equate no news with good news, since surely if the appraisal didn't hit our minimum mark, we'd be scrambling for Plan B… right? Time is running out, and I'm getting nervous. I will likely call and see what's up, but god, I hate calling and asking,
Hey, what's up? There's one final thing — think of it as Plan Z — that can be done to prevent them taking the house away altogether, but I'd prefer not to do it if at all possible.
- I'm wearing size 10 pants now! I realized that I needed to, er, 'downsize' when I almost fell and was prevented from hitting the ground by being grabbed by the seat of my jeans. It's been interesting, having to readjust my mental self-body-image to smaller. I look at these pants, or the shirt my roommate just gave me and I still think,
There's no way I'm getting that on me! And then I do.
- There's a wildfire burning just east of town (likely cause: a campfire that was not properly extinguished. Gr.) and the resultant smoke is wreaking havoc with my sinuses. I know, that's the least of one's concerns when it comes to a wildfire, but it is annoying.

this just not enough…?
