So this month has been kind of stressful and I am SO BEAT right now that it’s all I can do to not lay down and take a nap right here in my cube.
I have the biggest cube, so it wouldn’t be that much of a stretch.
This week in particular has been quite, uh, less than awesome. I was out of town last weekend visiting my sister on Friday and then she came to stay with me on Saturday, and we got some bad cancer news about a family member and that has kind of preyed on me all week. I’ve been really tired all week and had two after-work-hours board meetings, one of which was four hours long in a cold clubhouse. I’m kind of surprised that I’m not sick, to be honest.
KNOCK ON WOOD
Anyhoo, I did a little economy-stimulating in the last couple weeks. For two months I’ve been searching high and low the greater East Bay for a Nintendo Wii, and lo, I snagged the last one at Target a couple weeks ago. Then, a couple days later I was buying a vacuum and lo, there on the shelf in Walmart was one of many Wii Fits. So I bought that too.
And I’ve lost 3 pounds using the Wii Fit. I know, right?
I just found Mario Galaxy the other day (the last one at Fry’s – a trend maybe??) and have been playing that. I heart that game a lot, even though I’ve played the first few levels twice already on friends’ Wiis, so this is all a repeat for me right now. I STILL need to hook up internet at my place (am piggybacking the local wireless) and get the Wii online so I can share all my ridiculous Miis and download old school games.
Take a look at my yarn wall:
That is my sock yarn.
I am not done unpacking and may never be. I am stuck in a quagmire of boxes, though they are certainly neatened up. Also: where are the grotesques that I made in ceramics?? WHERE DID I PACK THEM OH THOSE MANY YEARS AGO?
I know not.
