I don’t know if it’s the weather, or that I’m worried about Grandma, or that I’ve been home alone for the last couple of days, or what.
I feel blah.
I did a lot today though, despite the blahs I felt all day:
-Called iRobot and ordered a replacement battery for Rooben, our Roomba.
-Picked up four days worth of mail from my mailbox. Three boxes to sign for, plus our mailbox was completely full of mail/magazines.
-Went to the office.
-Went to the DMV to take care of my Dad’s registration for his car (we didn’t know where the paperwork was for his car and we missed the chance to file for Planned Non-Operation, so I had to pay the registration for a car that hasn’t been driven in 6 months).
-Went to a blogging.la author get together. Bowling at Pickwick Bowl in Burbank. Except I didn’t bowl. Saw Jillian, 5000!, Markland, Cybele + her Man, Mack Reed, and Will Campbell: Answer Man. I haven’t seen any of them in ages. I hope that by showing up to one of these things once in a while, I don’t get kicked off of blogging.la for lack of posts. We did do a White Elephant Gift exchange, though. My submission was an “Old School iPod” (portable CD player), a Pooping Snowman candy dispenser, and a roll of Sudoku toilet paper. I brought home the CD soundtrack of “The Queen” (not Queen) and a 2007 Chippendale’s calendar, with DVD. (Some lucky person is the probable eventual recipient of the calendar.)
What? I’m not getting the calendar? Doh! :)
this time of the season can be quite depressing but i hope you get your hopes up. also, i could never go to any of these blogger get-togethers because i am incredibly shy around strangers….
happy new year!
Joz it was really great to see you last night. I’m so glad you came.
thankx for the message. hope things get better. and i love white elephant.
