i have a headache.
i've had one since we got back from florida. i guess the stress of real life just kicks right back in, doesn't it? right where i left it. oh, joy.
so in the last 24 hours i've not only gone back to work, but i've also called 2 furnace companies (still trying to nail down what i want and where i want it), the gas company guy has come to schedule the line to be run to the new furnace, i've made an appointment with my orthopaedist to have my left wrist checked out, i've taken mimo to the vet to have his mouth-stitches looked at, i've paid bills and balanced my checkbook (not a pretty sight), bought a 2004 calendar for my daytimer and imported all the pertinent info into it, and gone to the grocery store.
still on the list is getting my car inspected, writing thank you notes, and shipping my mom's 'extra' suitcase to her.
speaking of mom, i think she's contributing to the headache and doesn't know it. she's in the islands right now. anguilla. i need to look that up on a map... i have no real idea of where she is. (besides on a beach, most likely.)
anyway, over christmas, while she was in florida with us, she used my computer a couple of times to send email to friends. once or twice she'd send something that would arrive at its destination totally blank. i saw at least one of her friends write a note back saying, "hey, dork, this was blank. resend it, if it's that important."
so i really shouldn't be freaked out right now by the message i got from my mom last night. all it said was "help" in the subject line. the rest was blank.
now, if i didn't know this quirky thing about her mailer's tendencies to delete text from her messages i'd be freaking out a whole lot more than i am right now. but still... i did send a message to her friend tim (who she's staying with) just to confirm that she really doesn't need help.
so, where's that tylenol?
