bloodsong1 | Mmmm. Spaghetti.

With homemade sauce is good for the soul. Thanks Kyther!

So, other then Sherzi's tags wiping out my paycheck, which led to the incident with Sprint, my weekend went well.

Didn't hook up with Koi as had been discussed. Was very disappointed, but not surprised and got over it fairly quickly. Saturday was spent moving furniture around, listening to Wolf swear over speaker wire (re-wiring the stereo never works the first time) and playing FF6. Finally got the Esper thing working the way it's supposed to and may I say, it's da bomb. SO much nicer and easier this time! I renamed the characters again, just to gloat in the knowledge I have ticked off the rabid fanboys, even if they don't know it!

Sunday was spent hanging out with Kyther and watching "Firefly". Oh my gods! Anyone who likes science fiction, Joss Wheadon or both MUST rent or buy this series and watch it. Watch it! Before "Serenity" comes out! Or after, so you'll understand the film better! I've had snippets of the theme song running through my head all day.

"Take me out into the Black. Tell them I ain't coming back."
"I don't care, I'm still free. Now I've found Serenity. Burn the land, boil the sea, you can't take the sky from me." It's beautiful! *sniff* Must find that song. Or have Kyther send it to me. Hint hint.

Sunday evening was spent running around making sure everything was ready for the kiddo for kindergarten today, reminding him several times to make sure he gets on the right bus (eek!), reminding Wolf not to forget all his supplies and generally trying NOT to freak out in front of the kiddo. First day of school and I can't walk him to the bus or meet him or anything!!!! ARGH!!!

Of course, by now he's either on the daycare bus or already at the daycare having lunch. I haven't gotten a frantic call from anyone, so I'm presuming everything went fine. *sweatdrop* Doesn't feel right, my not being there to meet him when he gets home. My mom was always there, or my part-time babysitter. Except for that one time in second grade where my sitter did NOT meet me where she was supposed to, so I went home with a friend and called my mom two hours later asking if I could stay for dinner and she had already freaked out all over the place and _I_ was the one who had to take flowers over to the sitter's house and apologize. Never did understand why I was the one in trouble for that.

Anyhew! As much as I wish I could be the stay at home mom that takes the kiddo to the bus stop and meets him after school and all that, I know that that lifestyle would drive me crazy. I am the type of person who has to be working, at least part time, otherwise I feel like a drain on my family. This comes from having to bail out my parents financially more then once growing up, then turning around and marrying a deadbeat. Working from home is something I've considered, but the schooling required we can't afford. Grrrr.

Ok, have to get back to work now.
