I know it's going to be a good day. It started off with Prufrock. Thanks @fatty. http://bnter.com/convo/43709
@ccarella's aunt sent a pic of her 6 bottles of wine + 2 bags of chip for hurricane prep. I have 1 bottle of wine and a 6-pack. I feel unprepared now :-(
Just had an idea about how to rearrange the furniture. Now I have a fun activity for when the power goes out and all my batteries die!
I met a friend from high school for breakfast. I've seen her only a couple times in person since graduation. Love old friends who you can chat with comfortably after years of separation.
Had an awesome night at Burp Castle with @falicon and @ccarella discussing http://knowabout.it and subjot and sports....lots of sports...
Too humid! Dehumidifier bucket filled in 6 hours. NOT WANTED.
Ever so pleased we got the new-to-us a/c installed today: "HEAT ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 10 AM MONDAY TO 9 PM EDT  TUESDAY"

It's kind of strange that drivers licenses don't require regular driving. http://bnter.com/convo/30351, http://bnter.com/convo/30352
1 hour left to pack and clean. Some things can only get done in a rush.
Just when I was beginning to believe UPS was a mythical creature, they came and they took our giant, ill-packaged return box away! HIP HIP HOORAY! So long, poorly listed air conditioner that won't work in our apartment.
saturday night: a bottle of wine, cookies, and ~3 episodes of bsg.
I had forgotten about the phantom butterflies screensaver. Hello, old friend. http://www.whiteknightlogic.net/software/phanto...
I'm pretty sure bathroom cleaning product fumes will kill me, even if I don't mix them and I keep the area ventilated.
Balancing a book on my head while I work. I don't think it's improving my posture, but it's a fun challenge anyway.
Taking an extended lunch break to celebrate a successful update and beautiful weather!
raining hard + expected delivery = work from home day.
The train is kind of smelly but the view of the Hudson is lovely. I forgot to intentionally sit on the side with the view, but I got lucky.
Found a bag with my lint brush and mascara which have been missing for months. Now if I could find my set of keys that have my library card attached and one of my at-home wrist braces, I'd be all set.
For once I remembered to charge all my devices hours before travel instead of minutes! Not that it matters since Amtrak has outlets, but still!!
Ack! With the cable boxes gone, there are no clocks on display in the apartment anymore!!
I'm super pleased with the amount of time I spent outside this weekend. Hooray for spring!!!!
I like having people over regularly. It keeps the apartment cleaner. It also chips away at my standards which contributes to making it easier to clean before having people over.
A personal record: 5 hours spent brunching in 1 weekend. Belcourt with family yesterday and waffles at home with friends today.
My DonorsChoose jot got eaten with the db failure. I still have 4 $25 gift codes you can use to donate to a school project of your choice. Who wants one? It's fun!
Conan tricked me into looking up. He wasn't talking about a new kindle, but rather a new "ken doll." Similarity noted! If I had a proper kindle, I'd put a Ken doll sticker on it.
