That&#039;s good cause I was gettin nervous... this whole home ownership (or at least &#039;guardianship&#039;) can spawn some serious paranoia about the &quot;elements.&quot; But I think all is well.<br />
<br />
I&#039;m watching All My Children right now... this is one hardcore melodrama--- an explosion, trapped main characters, deaths.... what a day. Well, it&#039;s pretty much just another day. :)<br />

It&#039;s 9pm, I&#039;m watching <em class="tb_i">Weeds</em><a class="blank" href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;q=+Weeds+" title="click to search google for  Weeds " >(GOOGLE -  Weeds )</a> on Showtime On-Demand so that I can talk about it with my boss in New York tomorrow. Yep. New York. I still can&#039;t quite wrap my head around it, but I do work in New York. Except, with the rare exception, I work from my house in Tonawanda. Telecommuting [dict]Telecommuting [/dict]is a wonderful thing... I make nice money in Buffalo (well, sorta nice but that&#039;s another story for another time once things that happened today get resolved)... and I get to stay home and chill with my girl (R) and my doggie all day and get madly stressed out about a publication that basically exists in cyberspace... and today, of all days, I worked for almost 12 hours. Even though nobody, except again R and my dog, would have any idea of the time I&#039;ve put in. <br />
<br />
Oh well. I&#039;m not complaining (much). Nobody&#039;s telling me to do all this work, and really, at the moment I don&#039;t really NEED to do all this stuff.... but I&#039;m doing it anyway. I&#039;m thinking of it as preventative measures, because my dear friend and coworker T is leaving tomorrow for greener pastures, and I&#039;m taking over one of his publications. On top of my own quarterly. Oh jeez. I feel the rage again.<br />
<br />
My boss says &quot;the situation will be equalized.&quot; We shall see. Nutter story. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, here I am, in my little office with my furry dog, watching Weeds and wishing R could stop overdoing it with HER NYC job. What a life we have, in the Ton-Wan. :)<br />
