Whoo, I'm pooped, and I have a lot to catch up on.

**First, the car (now named Blitzy) failed her emissions test, so no tag for me...

...until I gave Terance a call.

Now she has a shiny new Madison County tag to last her until this October. That will give me plenty of time to either (a) fix the thing that keeping her from passing (a nearly 200 dollar repair job) or (b) move to Madison County or the general Athens area, where emmissions testing isn't required.


**Blitzy makes the whole visiting thing very, very easy now. I feel so much more balanced in my relationships now that I have the ability to go out and see people without wondering "And just how am I going to get home?"


**On that same thread, the afternoon commute up 316 to Athens is a bitch any day of the week.


**I'm still pretty "blah" on D*C this year. Besides seeing people I don't get to normally see and checking out what The Cruxshadows are up to, I don't think I can justify the cost of doing the whole weekend. So I'm thinking just heading up with Terance for whatever day the band is playing (cause he's a fan who has never seen them live), saying my hellos to everyone (much easier with this cellphone), seeing CXS, and then finding something else to do for the extended weekend.


**Given my general "bleh" on cons that don't start with Froli-, the jury is still out on AWA as well (I mean, hell, I've never gotten laid during AWA anyways, so...). I mean, I could justify going long enough to see the horror of "The Hour that Doesn't Exist" and whatever happens with the "Yaoi After Dark" panel...but...bleh...


**The job search goes... It would be a lot less stressful if I could just sit down and learn how to write a decent cover letter.


**I've been way too tempted to just find excuses to use up my annual leave and not show up at my job. But now they've got me training five people at once (on three different things-whee!), so the power of gulit compels me otherwise. I wonder how much of my leave (annual, sick, comp time, holiday) will I get in cash when I quit?


**I've just spent this afternoon helping Terance give away some kittens at a Wal-Mart. This was after being taught how to throw a punch (hey, I asked). I thought it was a perfect ending to a fairly nice weekend of getting shit done.


**My new music obsession is Morning Musume. I have crossed over to the dark side of J-pop.


*thinks* Did I forget anything?
