Personal Update Time!

I know how you all look forward to news of my ovaries, employment status, and real estate prospects. Hey, maybe now that Beth and Chris are pregnant, I can take posession of the phrase, "My ovaries are slack-ass bitches."

I shouldn't blame my ovaries. I think they're doing their job, though I do have to pee on a stick later tonight to find out if my husband is going to get lucky or if he has to save it for another 24 hours. (Concentrate, sailors! Man the torpedo!)

Anyway, the gist of all that is that the plumbing seems to be functioning. Still. Cool.

NOTHING is going on with the sale of our house. I've suggested to my realtor that we list on Craigslist and the real estate section of E-bay, and she seems reluctant. I don't know if it's a fear of technology (but I still love technology...always and forever...I'm quoting from "Napoleon" again), or if she's just not that good a marketer. But I'm getting frustrated, and I don't always remain polite when I'm frustrated. Ya know?

I am unemployed for tomorrow, and then I have a solid week of work next week. It's going to be freaking difficult to wake up before 8:00 a.m. How easily I have slid into snoozy degeneracy.

Oh, so I Tivo'ed about two weeks worth of Buffy back in November. I was finally getting caught up with everything there, and Buffy was fighting "The One" and she and Spike were starting to get a little steamy again, but in a really good way. So then Angel came back and Buffy killed Caleb. That was the last episode I had recorded. And you know what I found out today?!? That was the SECOND TO THE LAST EPISODE OF THE WHOLE FLIPPING SERIES!!! I missed the last one! Arrrrgh! I guess that's a hazard of unemployment. And technology. (But I still love technology.)

Finally, anyone care to recommend a book that will teach me PhotoShop Elements 3.0 in a few easy steps? I'm a little adrift.
