Things that make Mellie happy
- It's payday, and I got slightly more than I thought (short paycheck due to the vacation). Monies have already been assigned to the credit card that took the parking fee hit, and I'll fire off a check to Amex tonight. God, but I love zeroed-out plastic.
- Because I have slightly more money than I thought, I'm going to hit my favorite yarn store tomorrow and indulge in some stash expansion. It's just slightly cheaper than drugs, and more socially acceptable. Besides, I read a blog that contained a picture of some absolutely gorgeous blue-green yarn and wooden knitting needles to die for, and I must have them.
- It's Friday, which means I have a weekend ahead of me in which I can try to get some sleep. Hey, it could happen. And the apartment is still relatively clean from last week -- a fast vacuum and some dusting, and it's all shiny.
- Starting next week, I'll be telecommuting from home twice a week. Sweet. Of course, this means I have to clean out the home office this weekend, but we're having a houseguest in a couple of weeks so it had to be done eventually.
- Lyndon starts his new day job on Monday -- I get to sleep with my husband on a regular basis again! (And yes, people, I mean sleep.)
- UNITED 93 opened today. Not that this makes me happy, given the subject matter, but I do want to see it.
- I'm thisclose to finishing a story, which feels good. It was hard to find the funny necessary for this, but I think I finally caught it.
- We've got thunderstorms heading this way. I do love a good thunderstorm.
- Lyndon did a stock-up yesterday, which means I don't have to go to the store until tomorrow -- yay!
So what do you all have planned for the weekend?
