Mnrr...

Slept badly. Kept waking up every two hours or so. Apparently I was planning out what to do for the Shindig in my head all night, and stressed myself out about it. Not necessarily a good thing. Oh well.

Many things to do today. Most of them involve cooking and cleaning when I get home from work. Almost everything has to get done today so that I can leave ASAP for the Godforsaken Howling Northern Wilderness after work tomorrow. I have to call BorderCrossing and confirm that I'm picking her up after school, and make sure all my stuff is packed and ready to be popped in the car right off. Minimal fuss tomorrow means a lot of work today.

I have to buy fruit today at lunch. When I went to the IGA yesterday, the bananas were green. Can't make banana bread with green bananas. Just-ripe bananas, maybe, but certainly not green ones. So I'm going to try a different store today.

Hurley's was nice yesterday. For the most part it was just me and tcaptain, punctuated by two visits from miseri. Good conversation, if quiet. Managed to get to bed reasonably early, too. Too bad I didn't sleep well after that.

Not a good day for a headache

It's not a migraine, but it's still unpleasant. I'm trying to make lasagna and muffins and maybe a pie in anticipation of this weekend, and it's really not helping. I really hope I'm not getting sick. That would suck on an epic scale.

The lasagna and I had a battle to the death. I stand victorious, if slightly scarred and scalded. The lasagna is also very much not friendly to the lactose-intolerant. Cheese for the win!

Sympatico is made of fail because they changed their SMTP setting-thingies without telling me, thus causing me to spend 30 precious minutes on the phone with tech support trying to figure out why my email wouldn't send.

I am going to take a bath while the lasagna cooks in the oven. After that, I will tackle either the pie or the muffins, whichever I feel like doing most.
