Change is good, right?

I'm at Kat's. Since her grandson moved out and took his cable modem with him, she's getting a clandestine wireless signal from somewhere around here, otherwise I'd be climbing the walls with no net access.

It's been a very long time (6 years) since I've had to share a house with anyone, and I'm finding it a little uncomfortable. (This is the longest that I've worn clothes since February, for one thing.) I'm paranoid that I'll inadvertantly do something gauche.

We did our usual Monday lunch date, after which I showed her the cheapest place to get gas---around the corner from the C's place, which wasn't that far from where we lunched. After that, we detoured to the library, so I could drop a couple of things off---let me mention Yet Again how much I LOVE having library priviledges!

BC came over and we chatted about science, science-fiction, favorite authors, blah-blah-blah...next Monday, we're going to try to get my mattress moved. He's also going to show me around a few of the local food pantries. Meaning, I've got Wednesday to plow a path to my old bed and strip it so that hopefully we can get it out and the 'new' one in with a minimum of carnage.

I'm transcribing my notes for the Jericho WIP, since I've had some encouragement. (It doesn't take much!)

I have an odd schedule on Thursday---I go in two hours early for White Trash Queen training---but I get out correspondingly early too, so I'll probably stick around to catch the fresh ep of Royal Pains.

At least I've got a plan....

Are you staying until the water comes back or until A/C is fixed or both??

At least til the water comes back. I'm going to try to get a stand-up fan or two, and BC says he'll help me balance the fan over my bed so I can set it for something other than low speed. Believe me, if I could return sooner, I would. My back is KILLING me. I'm sleeping on a sofa bed in the middle of everything because the guest room is occupied---by Kat's cat.

A guest room for a CAT? *giggles* I'm betting the cat is smug about it, too.

And be careful - you know what they say: "Life happens while you're busy making plans"!

Which is why I ended up back at home. I'd be offended if I wasn't reminding myself that she's being affected by the chemo, but playing third-fiddle to a cat? At the very least, my feelings are hurt that the cat gets the bed. (Not to mention my neck, my shoulders, my back....)
