Happy Firday! It’s 57 degrees and cloudy, that’s down 7 degrees from when I woke up at 3. Can’t blame it on the dog, I fell asleep with the light on and that woke me up. The high today is 64 and into the 40s overnight. Good, now we can turn the damn AC off and have fresh air. I have to irk this am, the straighten up my room because the termite inspector is coming and I don’t know if he needs to come in my room but the Sah-dog pulled all my dirty clothes out of the basket so he sleep on them. I think he thinks the bedroom looks better with clothes scattered everywhere. Sometime I have to go feel some cats and scoop their boxes. Looks like rain so I won’t water all the bonsai trees. I think he has about 30 of them. {{{ **Midget** }}} and yes, sometimes I read the board bottom to top because it’s easier to find where I left off that way. Then I have to reread top to bottom to have it make sense. ---

I really did not want to come to irk today, but here I am. I suspect the place will be a veritable ghost town. We gots car troubles, so I got in an extra biking day today so I could leave my car for my husband. I wish somebody had brought in doughnuts… ---

I hate computers right now. Hates 'em! I’ll get over it shortly but for now all computers are Satan’s minions! ---

> [@anyrose](#): > > I would \*never \*toy with you! 😉 😃 Thanks love, I am ill suited for dating but a great partner. I find it harder to bridge the gap as I get older. In other news, the first draft of the TPAID song was rejected as it was about doing unholy things with a corncob. PDB are dirty boys :eek: Happy Friday all **Jim** ---

Done irk for now. Have to clean up the bedroom although I doubt the inspector needs to come in here. My room is too small for everything in it. I haven’t seen any more evidence of the mouse so I hope the little sucker has met his demise. It’s downright chilly with the window open, I may have to put on long sleeves today. I love the fresh air though. I have clients who never open their windows, they go from heat to AC to back to heat. I don’t know how they do it. Like my mother always says, you have to open to windows to blow the stink out. The rain stopped. Hmmm somebody is knocking on the door. Don’t know if the guy is here early or if the HFH is back. The car kind of looks like hers but she shouldn’t need to knock. ---

We have no termites. Just ants and mice, which is more than enough. I had my lunch and getting ready to go feed some cats. Since we’ve had rain all day I will skip watering the bonsai. I finally had to put on a sweat shirt and I think I will have to close my window soon. The temperature has dropped to 54 degrees. ---

I am bidin’ my time until go home time. It’s all quiet. Mayhaps the general populace thinks we’re all gone away. Let us all hope so. BTW the puter I’m postin’ on is not the one on _The List._ I’m happy with this one. For now. It knows, however, it is subject to bein’ on _The List_ at any time. That’s how _The List_ operates. ---

Ugh. Tried - and failed - to get to sleep last night, after drugging myself with Gravol. So at around 1:30 or 2 AM I drugged myself with the one Ativan pill I had left, and turned on the radio and decided to listen for a while. I must’ve eventually fallen asleep with the radio on at a low volume (and my usual alarm clock _is_ the radio, so it must’ve not gone off at its usual high volume at the usual time of morning.) Luckily, when I recognized the morning radio show host’s voice in my sleep, I woke up. At least, I think that’s what happened. Had another driving lesson today. Worked mostly on lane changed. My goodness, I suck. So much to do. ---
