It's a storming outside. Wind has picked up. Rain is coming down. We are only at 30% of snowfall for the year which could result in summer drought conditions if it doesn't keep up for a while. Just got into with B about her friend coming in two weeks. She wanted to go to Tillamook while she was here and originally I had Monday free but that changed and now B is pissed off at me because I won't be able to drive them. I'm sorry I have to do my job? Tell your friend not to fly in at 8:30pm on a Sunday and leave at 5am on a Friday? Who the fuck doesn't include at least one weekend day in their plans when they visit someone? Sorry the rest of us have jobs to do? Whatever. You drive yourself. Heck, they may not even be able to get over the hill without chains depending on how long the storm lasts. The shit part is I don't even want to teach the class I have to on Monday. It's a fucking Kaiser special edition class from 8:30 - 4:30 and I despise those anyway.
Didn't do shit yesterday. I tried to go out but ended up having to come right back home. I was going to go to the garage sale store, but I got there too early. While I waited I went to the fish store nearby and bought some live brine for the fish. Problem is I needed to get them home as it was too cold for them to sit in the car while I waited for the other store to open and then go browse. And I wasn't about to drive home and drive back. Fuck that. Instead I came back home and cleaned the carpets. Just for the stupid fucking cat to puke on them later.
Wow, the rain is hitting the window hard out there.
That was my big day. Was going to make sweet potato soup for dinner until I realized the recipe is a slow cooker recipe. Fuck me. Plus I was out of two of the ingredients. Instead I had different soup. I will make the sweet potato today though. Just need to get it in the crockpot by 11. I did some light cleaning yesterday. I don't want to clean too soon because she comes home Wednesday. Tuesday after class will be the best time. I will do laundry, change the sheets, etc.
Speaking of sheets, I did test out the new projector on a white sheet I got last weekend finally. Picture good, sound bad. Neither the laptop I used or the projector have decent sound. But I do have external speakers I can hookup if needed. I do need to iron the sheet however. There were a lot of wrinkles in it which took away from the picture. If we had a real screen it would be easier. Some day.
I did manage to convince my sister to start back up in wow. Now I just need to know when she is planning on play and synch our schedules. I watched some tv, played some games, and went to bed around 10 last night.
Not sure what to do today with the weather. I have full classes all week - oh that reminds me of something. I am teaching an Intermediate and Advanced class next week. The Int has 14 students and the Advanced 10. 9 of whom are coming straight from the Int. WTF? Do you really think you're going to be prepared for that class? I really wish we would stop letting people sign up for Advanced classes back to back like this. It's going to be a pain in my ass.
Grr. I am already cranky this morning because of this whole discussion with B. I'll just go stand in the rain. Get hit by falling trees.
