Good morning, good morning, good ... No I Didn't Make That Charge

This week is threatening to burn me out. In Sunday for four hours, Monday 'til 8, yesterday 'til 7 ... I'm feeling overworked. What happened to the old me of the Dot Com days? This is doubtlessly why I'm not in at work yet. Good thing we have flexible hours.

Last night's shadowdaddy birthday party seemed to go quite well. ( Guest list )

Of course today I got a call from the credit card company first thing in the morning, and it turns out the House of Hong bill was the last valid charge on our card ... someone decided to go buy some coins on the internet with our card number! Blast them.

Meanwhile, I'm thinking about heading out to a tack shop over lunch today to buy the riding boots I promised myself for this fall. I feel like I could get a lot of use out of them - and, god, I've wanted a pair since I was, what, fourteen? Time to make those childhood dreams come to life! (And get my ass out the door ... I think the commute has become reasonable now.)

Say it isn't so, Shoeless Joe

I did not just kick the switch for the surge protector after spending half an hour setting up that test.
