I put the BLS on her plane back to London yesterday and gave the sweet sweet freedom of the rental car. How will we get to Costco [in 6 months when we run out of toilet paper] ? It's good to be attempting our regular routine. Vacations and visitors are nice but I like some regularity to my days, it's the organizational whore inside me.
Random bits left over from the visits: Rona now will occasionally (with prompting) declare, "I decide who lives or dies!"
If I get really homesick (unlikely) Costco will cure it. Spend the a hundred bills (it almost always comes out to somewhere eerily close to a hundred) and then a 1.50 for a soda and hot dog.

neepheid on a crawl last night. As he says, if you go to more than one pub technically it's a crawl. Not only did we hit my first old manny's bar (the Bells) but I was introduced to the Sizzler: the Aberdeen version of In and Out Burger. Sure the prices are a little higher, but the all angus beef burgers are bigger too. Suffice to say: delicious.
I even started real work on a project today (BTW
neepheid re: your comment last night: you were right, it was just a holiday delay) that will pay me some monies. Not a lot of them but some is better than none right? I may even get some off the books work at a local pub because living on loan disbursements sucks, especially if you overdid it at christmas time (not that we are complaining, it was a fantastijimagical holiday this year).
And aikido begins again on Monday and d&d is even magically resuming this weekend too (I thought it might take a bit longer to get back together).
