And now, a word from our sponsor

Ahh, blog laziness is a wonderful thing. A few updates:

House hunting is on hold for the time being. Now, debt is in season, and I have mound of credit card foibles in the cross-hairs.

I ordered swatches for the sofa on Friday, given that the Horchow sofa is sold out (boo!). I have since picked up a sofa and desk from World Market at a steal, and they're making mom's fixer-upper (who's basement I currently reside in) a bit more functional. My home ideas folder the laptop is expanding, and experimenting with various colors is going swimmingly.

Anyhow, here's the rub (not at all house related): I’ve come to revel in the bittersweet taste of disappointment when it comes to dating. There is something about it that’s become an odd relief to me. I'm a workaholic (today especially) and the familiar pattern is very nearly comforting: I meet someone, and then they do something that makes me want to cringe and hide. Or, I dig them, and they drop off the planet like they were just visiting. Ahhh, c’est la vie. I suppose I don't have the time really to put into a relationship. It seems I may get two good friend out of it, which is just about as good.

Eeep, I've had less than 5 hours of sleep, and worked a total of 16+ hours in the past 24. Time for a shower and a ginger beer.
