Still so goddamn tired I cannot even tell you, etc, etc. Only slightly disappointed that the last post did not, in fact, garner friends coming out of the woodwork to offer me shinies; I hadn't really expected it to. Apparently I'm not that sort of person people want to fling money at. Or my cats aren't amusing enough. It's okay, I actually slept last night. And if I can sleep tonight, and for a couple more nights to come, maybe things will be better! It's amazing how much sleep doesn't seem to matter until you don't get it anymore, for whatever reason.
I'm pretty sure my body weight not even changing a tenth of a pound in four days is some sort of mutant power. I mean, weight fluctuates, it goes up it goes down, I know this, but down to the same tenth of a pound, four days in a row? If this is my mutant power can I reset it lower? Weird.
Grandpa did not, in fact, take a wild hair and go out to the beachhouse (in Delaware, just for information) to see how bad the storm damage was. I mean, I didn't think he would, but it's nice to know. And the house is on ... eight foot stilts? Ten foot stilts? that are buried into the sand 30 feet deep according to Aunt, who was there when they drove them in, so if it's not still standing those were some fucking strong winds. And/or high waves coming into the bay, because it's not directly on the ocean. In which case I would not expect Rehoboth to be standing at all, which, parts of it still seem to be. So, we should be okay. Maybe some broken out windows and some rain coming in. If the waves did come all the way up to the beach house, well, the only thing they would have gotten would be the downstairs storage with all the really, really old fishing and crab tackle and maybe some inflatable things for the kids what visit there.
... And I was going to email the Draw Specialist for information on how that was proceeding but she just now emailed me some documents to scan and read and sign and fill out and send back. That was kind of eerie.
So, yeah. Today looks like a lighter day on account of half the crap that was supposed to land got held up by Sandy. And hopefully there will be less outgoing as well. I have no idea what the hell just happened, but we got an unusual slew of large wholesale orders in the past week or so, so that's been busy. And now, hopefully, I can get some other stuff done. I did finish line edits on the first chunk of Black Ice! Which means now, second chunk! And the third, and then fourth, and it really never ends, does it. Le sigh.
