Last night?

Another hour, another part of the house cleaned up. This time, the bookcase in the dining room that had become the catch all point for clutter and things that really didn't have a home.

DONE.

Of course, I didn't get any time at the computer for julnawrimo, but that's how it goes.

Tonight? One of the bookcases in the office. So help me.

Now? I go to the post office and mail boxes. And stuff.

Such excitement. How will you survive.

(BTW, all of this is in anticipation of getting that foster parent application done. The house has to be finished and in working order, not just "that'll work if we" order. Capish?)

Also outlined to Jim last night just what I think the next big change to the house should be. As in a tandem garage and turning the two buildings into one big building plans. Now, to go talk to my contractor to draw up some plans and such. I've lost my mind.)

Hello there -

Yes, it's so nifty Jim works for a union. And it has benefits that go with paying those dues every paycheck!

Like, oh, "free" AD&D insurance.

The agents just left.

Every time I do this, I am sternly reminded that I know More Than I Should about these things...have done them way too often...and that I have not had the Normal Life Experiences for someone my age.

But hey, share the love. Who's going to turn down free coverage? Best part? They're allowing us to give it to three people in addition to ourselves.

No additional cost. To them, or us. (silverkun, ceolyn, you're two of the three - if they ask you to upgrade, tell them no and then tell me so I can kick their asses. I will, too.)

Nobody in their early 40's should know everything there is to know about cashing in a life insurance policy. Or how long COBRA lasts - unless you qualify for Medicare - or what plans are available to cover your ass when NOTHING ELSE WILL...~*DOOOM*~

Bitch, please. Don't try to sell me a permanent policy that will only have $2,500 in additional value at maturity. I could do better leaving it in the bank, thank you please drive though now plzkthx. Or just spending those premiums on - gee - plane tickets or suchlike. La Vida LOCA!!!!

Dearlings, it's $1,000 if someone kills your on the freeway. For nothing.

Oh, if you don't count an evening of hearing about actuarial tables and kaka. They were sweet, too.

But I didn't do anything else this evening. I COULD HAVE BEEN WRITING SMUT DAMMIT.

Or attacking the office like I wanted.

Oh, and if you're not reading theferrett, shame on you.
