I am in a just-constant-enough state of low-grade sunburn to also be in a constant state of itch. But I dast not itch, because that will leave great vicious white slashes of pain across my delicate skin. I could, of course, not go outside for a few days while it all healed up, but I don’t think so. Gaming last night was fun, once we got started. It took us like two hours, between dinner and trying to decide what we were going to do, to get started. :) Then…
nothign to say :)
See, I updated my miles last night, and so today I don’t have anything much to say! Except I got all the paperwork necessary for Deirdre’s and my Irish passports, and Ted’s post-nuptial citizenship application. I’m going to deal with all this now.
Goodness, that was bad!
We watched Absolon, which was every bit as bad as we anticipated, and then some.

orange skies
Must, must, *must* start laundry as soon as I’m done with this entry. The skies are orange this morning, with shadows blocked out on my walls in a delicate peach that suggests curling up in warmth and comfort, not wildfires ranging three hundred miles north of me.

Ted and I were going to go see The Terminal…
banner day
It’s been a good day! I got email from Barb telling me that I got a raise, and I’m now making, officially, More Money Than I Ever Imagined I Would. Okay, the truth is as long as I’ve had this job I’ve been making MMTIEIIW, but still, raises are good! Earlier today, Shaun was playing a game with Zilli. It’s a game they play fairly regularly. Shaun over-exaggeratedly sneaks up on Zilli, making claws with his hands and growling each time he takes one very deliberate step. When he’s done…
