So I really wanted to go home early today. I am having an off day...when everything goes just a little screwy but enough that you kind of just want to play Sudoku in bed.

But I'm still here...Simone went home early. Boo. We are not busy, I am not busy. I have a new "work space" aka desk. It's back behind the action, so I can kind of do what I want. Like Blog.

The Metric show last night was awesome! Balancing act between good and bad...

BAD: Doors were supposed to open at 6:30, so we got there just after 6. We were informed, just before 6:30 that doors would be closer to 7, but they didn't actually open until closer to 7:30. So we stood outside for an hour...and then went inside and stood for another hour. My back was killing me by the time the show was over. Also bad, the show only lasted about 50 minutes...

GOOD: I have never seen Metric before, and it was an acoustic show (no loud drums!!) and there were only a hundred or so people there and it was AWESOME!! And FREE!! And it was just a piano and guitar...sometimes just one or the other. Really amazing! Plus Russ and I got a date night out of it.

I'm going to grab some pics from Sonic tonight and post them here.

Have been very forgetful lately...my 2009 word (FOCUS) is getting harder and harder to follow. I have given up (mostly) on my to-do list book...I wasn't getting anything done so it was kind of a waste. It was good while it lasted, but that wasn't for very long! I have about 10 House projects on the go right now...and they all depend on each other. I can't paint the DR until I've sold the pantry and moved the bookshelf. And I can't move the bookshelf until I clean out the extra bdrm upstairs. But I can't clean it out until I sell the dresser in there. But I have to sell that as a set with the rest of the bedroom furniture, which means I have to clean off and empty the other pieces that I'm currently using in my bdrm, sell them and buy a new dresser, nightstand and headboard to replace them. ARGH!

I bought some new fancy red paint the other day, but I haven't used it yet. I don't want to start making another mess on my dining room table! Besides, I like to work on my canvases during the day and I haven't been home enough lately to do that.

I'm working MWF now, every week. Lucas starts at his dayhome May 1...he had a lot of fun there when we went to check it out, so I feel good about sending him there. But I still miss him, and feel bad for him...he LOVES being at home.

Anybody know any good wedding shower games...let me rephrase that...any less-lame wedding shower games? My fall back plan is booze and croquet. Lots of booze. And food. Hmmm....sounds good to me!!!
