I just picked up a job as a senior web developer :D Very, very pleased and thinking it’s just in time for the holidays! Everyone say “yeah!” for me :D

So, I joined a new site - Experience Project. It’s a bit of a jumble but a little bit of fun. Thing is, our fav creepy stalker decided to put out stories that included the names of those she harasses and harangues. 

It took a bit but I was able to get a hold of the right people and got her ass booted off - and from the looks of it, an IP ban.

Some days it pays to be persistent and diligent!

‘Cuz I got a brand new Kindle Fire. Obsessed with reading and watching vids. Back in a few days :D

There’s something to be said about listening to one’s partner softly snoozing, the house creaking here and there, and the sweet snuffling of dogs as they gather around your feet.

Another morning spent shaking the cobwebs in my head that were clearly created by bizarre dreams played out in the middle of the night.

I’ve been watching the Graham Norton Show in the wee hours of the night. Could it be the fun and mild mayhem are replaying in my brain? I can never quite remember the dream…just the essence. Waking up with a sense of being off-put and a bit upside down is my one and only clue.

Last night was a Bill Bailey/Stephen Fry frenzy. Any and all episodes with these two gentlemen were played. There’s something uniquely satisfying about being snuggled under a warm comforter with my laptop at my side, blaring away the laughter and silliness that is Graham Norton and his guests.

I’ve had a bit on my mind with the Boeing interview so my NaNoWriMo writing project has suffered. I haven’t written anything for the past few days. I’m hoping to make up for that the remainder of this week.

The past few days I’ve also been struggling with what seems to be a cold but not quite. Massive sneezing attacks and sinuses that drain unexpectedly are the symptoms but they aren’t pushing the onset of a full-blown cold or flu. Not sure what to make of that.

Oh, and I’m not pleased with my oldest. She’s home with a stomach ache. Something she gets quite often and is amazingly so much better by the evening. Not pleased at all at the moment.

I had this lovely post all written and beautifully worded while laying in bed, burrowed into the comforter. It was all about how cozy I was, how I’d caught up on the week’s news with the Daily Show, and how I’d received a link from my guy regarding a man who strangled his wife over the smashing of Star Wars collectibles.

It was witty and I was rather proud of it. Then my laptop crapped out on me. The witticism is gone. I’m too awake now, damn it.

However, I did come downstairs to presents from my guy (Annie’s Homegrown products).

It all balances out.

I slept about ten hours last night/this morning. Entirely too much as I feel more than a bit fuzzy around the edges. It is a fervent hope that massive quantities of coffee will help clarify my edges a bit.

My writing for NaNoWriMo did occur in some fashion yesterday but not nearly as much as I should have or would have liked. So, I need to play catch-up over the next few days.

Oh, and my quick post about one crazy, psychotic woman being quite invisible was apparently premature (she was up in the wee hours of the morning on Twitter threatening to have accounts shut down). I spoke too soon.

Well, at least those that read my rambling crap here…but it seems one ranting, spewing, over-the-top insane Brampton gal has made a sweet departure from Tumblr as well as Twitter making life so much more pleasant. Honestly, she could still be on either or both but has *finally* managed to keep her big mouth shut so as to not shine a light on her lying bit of filth.

And this combined with my impending Boeing interview has made for a rather sweet day on the tail-end of a beautifully silent week!

I have an interview with Boeing! This will be my third but this one is for a job I actually did while in the Army oh-so-many years ago. So, I probably have a higher than average shot!!! My morning became incredibly better.

Another one filled with driving children who normally take the bus so they can get some extra work done before first period. Another one filled with reminding my son to get all his crud together and be ready to go *before* he’s supposed to walk out the door. Another one filled with children completely unable to even attempt to be quiet as my guy tries to sleep.

Feh. The nice thing is they have tomorrow off so my guy and I both can sleep in.

How’s your morning (afternoon/evening)?

He got me Annie’s Homegrown Cheddar Bunnies crackers. They are my food equivalent of crack.
