Well, he could always just drive by my house, or look me up. He lives pretty close-by.

I could get paranoid, but he doesn't have a computer anymore.

I took it away.

So he wouldn't need your actual mailing address to drop off a weedwhacker, a letter, or a gift...if he knows where you live? I think monster's right: you're getting some kind of papers.

There is nothing to sue me over.

Really, the only thing I can think of is that he's having something sent to me, because otherwise he could give whatever it is to my sister or one of my friends to pass on to me.

I smell "cat box" but I can't tell WHY I'm smelling it.

I certainly hope someONE hasn't been using a non-issue cat box for their own cat convenience.

That could lead to being put on report.

Ugh, my housemate's cat does that. Drives me nuts! I hope that's not what's going on.

Up until about a day ago NEPA was a freakin tinderbox. We could have had half the firefighters in the country employed with a few well placed idiots. Patience Bullitt, it'll happen for you. I'd say stay in the business any way you can.

Upsetting me today. beest just got handed another 5 days unpaid vacation he must take before July ...AND, he is not allowed to use the paid vacation allowance he has for it -he also has to take a week of that before July.

Suddenly the few bucks I earned as a swim coach are no longer a bonus but now barely a dent in the hole in the budget

I am so confused. I *swear* I had this check - actually, the unopened envelope - from yesterday's mail. I put it on the kitchen counter with the rest of the mail, planning to deal with it as I sorted through the rest of it. Now it has vanished, and honestly, I am beginning to think I was wrong about having it at all. Maybe I saw an envelope that looked similar to the one this usually comes in - same blue logo - and just thought "oh good, check's here."

It's not the end of the world. I can call up the company that sent it and ask for a re-issue. I did that today and got the automated system. It said "your payment was mailed on April 24th."

Um...isn't today the 21st? Or am I in some kind of time warp?

I am so confused. Oh well, if it doesn't come in the next week or so I'll know I was right and it disappeared. In the meantime, I'll be doing some creative accounting.

Sorry to hear your troubles, Monster. Money doesn't buy happiness but it can sure make a nice down payment on it.

My CPN was due for my first appointment at 09.30. At 09.50 I got a call to say she was sick. Obviously she can't help that, it's just I'd built myself up to it and am disappointed.

Oh and Mum's just pointed out she hoovered and polished and cleaned the toilet and put out a new towel! So she's inconvenienced as well. I don't think I should tell her that the place was spotless anyway

Oh, and I'm having a period!
What's that all about?
I don't like it. I hope this isn't a regular occurrence.
