No Monday coffee with Marci at Barry’s because Marci is off gallivanting around somewhere for the week. I forget where. I cannot keep up with my very down-to-earth jetset friend but she’s somewhere and I hope she’s having a blast! Nevertheless, life at The Landfill goes on, sorta in order:

• Shower. Layer up. Walk. Cheerios. Make bed. Clean bathroom. Throw laundry in.
• Chisel, chisel, chisel.
• “Using the Flash drawing tools, make a self-portrait. Be creative.” Hmmm. Probably my least favorite assignment ever. For some god-forsaken reason, it is coming out better than I expected. Wonder if I’ll post it…
• Chisel, chisel, chisel.
• Photoshop: gothic-organic style interface
• Chisel, chisel, chisel.
• Email with Karen a couple times. Glad to hear she has heat. It’s winter and this is Michigan.
• Photoshop: paper-bag style interface
• Pack up a great big box and a 10×13 envelope, go to the PO and mail them to Callyforny and Kalamamalakazookman, respectively. Last box to Callyforny for the moment. This is the third PO clerk that has complimented me on my packing skills. What can I say? I used to be a non-profit administrator but now I’m just a mom who mails things to California. There is glass in this package. I do hope it makes it there successfully.
• Quick and dirty partial river ride. No kayakers.
• Scrounge a leftover lunch.
• Put laundry away.
• Deconstruct website for school project.
• iChat with Sam! No audiovisuals due to some weird problem we didn’t figger out. That’s okay, photo booth picks up wrinkles and other ugliness that I don’t see even when I’m 2 inches away from a mirror! Go figger. ‘course, it’s just Sam and she knows what I look like and prob’ly could couldn’t care less about the wrinkles. Did I say “just Sam?” Kee-reist. That was the biggest understatement on earth. Kee-reist.
• Chisel, chisel, chisel.
• More Flash, Photoshop, and deconstruct website.
• Discuss website migration issues.
• Tell Sierra Club guy at the door, “no thanks.” Hopefully politely but I was on the edge. Wonder if these young pups, when they see me in my small house on the Planet Ann Arbor, can ever understand what I’ve been through regarding land use issues. Do they know where I grew up and that I still own land there? I doubt they’d even begin to understand or believe my story. Sigh.
• Return Lizard Breath’s email. Register car in Callyforny? Yes, good idea.
• Walk. Penetrating kind of cold today. But it’s winter and this is Michigan. So.

My so-called life! Is yours more exciting? Do tell! 😉
