Happy Pride Day!

Kirsten and Rose went down to the parade, leaving me here to bumble around the house. I wouldn't have been any fun, what with a cold sore making it hard for me to eat or speak. So I'm tired, hungry *and* cranky. A new record!

So what to do? I think I'll go hit the mountain of books in the office, and see if there aren't a few that we can get rid of. Measure the office furniture in preparation for the change-over, and tape outlines on the floor.

Kirsten is still talking about DSL, but I'm worried about the cost. Ten years of being poor has given me a knee jerk reaction to the words "it's only a few hundred dollars." It is very odd to be in a position where we can both spend money rather freely, and still pay all the bills. Of course, we need to fix the driver's seat in the car, buy a new mattress and box spring, and a host of other things first.

I just found out that my best friend from childhood is getting married. Weird feeling when you realize that Bill was always the leader, and I've been married a decade already! I've been invited to the bachelor party, which will be amusing given that I don't drink, and am not overly interested in strippers these days. Oh well.

I do, in fact, understand - and the initial outlay for the modem & installation & everything gives me pause, as well. But once we get past that hurdle, the monthly cost isn't going to be all that much more than when you and I were paying for separate accounts at Hooked, and we're far better off financially than we were then.

So send me instead. *vbeg*
