So I’m here at the Seatac Hilton

… having gotten Ziva out of the krankenhaus.  She is running as well as she ever has, and with 196 kilometres of highway driving, it’s remarkable how she purrs.

I’m going to unpack to the extent I need to and get me a steak.  I am very very hungry, and I probably should get some coffee too as I didn’t drink any yet today and my head is pounding.

Glorious weather on the way down, the sun shone.  Traffic in Seattle was meh as always, but the drivers here are more polite on average than Vancouver so I had to mind my manners and not weave in and out.  That means picking a lane.  Border crossing was trivial; slower than I would have liked but uneventful.

 

 

Poor Katie

She has broken up with Kyle.  He’s probably going to end up with Izzy.  Good thing they didn’t have kids or I’d have something else to be cut up about.

Still waiting to hear what the damage is on Ziva. If I do not have a vehicle I am not going to be able to go to Conflikt and that screws up Cindy, who was hoping to borrow my vehicle to get her instruments back to town.  Heavy sigh.

If I do have to cancel I’ll donate my membership to a deserving person and cancel the hotel room.

 

Heavy heavy sigh.  I was hoping to have the car packed by about 10 this morning….

 

On the plus side I made Choc Chip Cookies for Jeff.

The non homily

I am doing a homily at church this morning – actually a minihom – which I won’t be posting to my blog.  I am unemployable enough as it is, currently, and since I’m not actually going to make a living as an activist, giving employers yet another reason not to hire me is not high on my list of things to do.

I’m going to make a living as a creative person yet.

All my telephone interviews have turned into nothing.

I am not sanguine about getting a job this week, but I am still sending out resumes every day and I’m working on my skillset by learning accounting software.

Housefilk success achievement unlocked

Mike, Rozo, Tom, Peggy, Cindy, Paul all came.  Jeff’s friend Rob kept Jeff company downstairs and as haz been said, BASS MAKES EVERYTHING BETTER.  BETTER I SAY!!

I stood up to antivaxxers today.  I will undoubtely be sorry.

Today I have no idea what I am going to do.  But I imagine parts will be productive, and other parts fun.

 

MY GOD Margot makes an incredibly loud slurping noise when she’s cleaning herself.

Eddie knows guests don’t put the seat down, so he made a beeline for his favourite water fountain last night.  He was mad when I busted him.

 

puttering

Housefilk at my place tonight, festivities commence at 6 pm or maybe even earlier. Mike and Rozo and Tom and Peggy and Cindy and Paul will be coming… Jeff is considering fleeing to the Robzone to avoid the noise.

Still haz a happy about me being the Interfilk Guest of Honor at GAfilk in 2014.  I have a year to prepare a set list… almost long enough eh wot?

On my list today:  reconcile October, enter November, reconcile November, enter December, reconcile December… and then the simple part of the bookkeeping for the year is done!!! w0ot!

Also, I am on tap to pick up Izzy’s luncheon.  I am sorry, widdle mousie, but your role in the great chain of being is already cast.

Have to make a deposit for the soup luncheon. Sigh.  It missed getting to the collection counters last week and it’s almost a hundred bucks so I can’t leave it lying around here.

Carrie has less than two weeks before she gets off Haida Gwaii for good. It’s too bad her ex is phoning her all the time and breaching his conditions, but that’s life I guess.

There are other little bits of news but that’s enough for me right now.  There’s a hungry snake waiting for me.

 

 

Katie has seen Sergeant Sees it Through

She liked it a lot.  Favourite bits… when everybody was sitting around waiting for the kids.  Also the part about the kids shooting in the street again to get into the club….  Jeff and I are still debating putting it on youtube, since I don’t think anybody’s going to run up to us and slap us regarding the copyright.  Even if they do, I have enough room to host it.

Off to Tamara’s for churchy business and it’s time to run Katie home.

I’m going to be playing fanfic bingo!

My only question to myself is whether this is in my own Midnite Moving Co Universe or in the Firefly verse or the Stargate verse.  Because I would like to keep it consistent.  I’m thinking row II  or column II.  au means alternate universe.
