Loose ends

I forgot to mention that the loose ends from the move are being tied up one by one. All of our phone jacks now work. We bought a lawnmower and Thor did a valiant job this weekend. And the missing piece of our sectional arrived last week as well. It’s the only thing to sit on in the living room, but it’s decadent. I can stretch out on one end, Thor can stretch out on the other end, and we don’t even touch! It also has three recliners built in.

Day 1 of the SBD went reasonably well. I was raging hungry in the afternoon, but I ate a few mozzarella cheese sticks, and toughed it out. I was afraid once Thor left for work that I’d find the cookies. But I prevailed! Most of the recipes were very good. I had grilled salmon for dinner. The dessert (based on ricotta cheese) was pretty bad. It actually depressed me.

I didn’t go to the gym last night as planned, but what I AM doing is searching for a copy of Dance Dance Revolution<(and a mat) for our old PSOne. I tried this game at DisneyQuest a while back, and I love it. Unfortunately, I suck at it. So DDRing in public isn't really in my cards. Today is going to be hella-long. It’s my numbers day at work – I stack up my Tuesday ($$) and Wednesday ($$ and website hits) reports into one day. Afterward, I get to sit in on focus groups, where folks’ll be answering questions about something I really shouldn’t get into on my personal website. I should be home at 10ish. Leave the light on for me!

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)
