This weekend was all over the fucking place, without my ever leaving the house.

Refi inspection revealed possible termite swarming, so that's a tidy thousand bucks to get the house tented sometime in the not-too-distant future. It's been four years (was tented just before I moved in), so it's more of a nuisance than anything. There goes the money mortgage payment I didn't have to make for July....

... and, in the fine tradition of expensive upgrades eating up any hint of improved cash flow, new windows have been contracted for. They cost as much as my first car. *sigh*

aishlynn had a bit of a scare yesterday, falling out of a tree at work. Fortunately, all she's got are a couple of scrapes and a really big bruise. It continues to look like I do the most half-assed job of beating my girlfriend ever. :-P

Lots of other shit lurking in the weeds, but it's my usual litany of opinionated bitching about this, that, and the other.

Practice makes perfect!

It's pretty damn cool that she has a job that sometimes involves climbing trees, anyway... I think my perfect job would involve some tree climbing, some den-building, some playing with Lego, and some sleeping.

Uh huh...and here you are, holding out on your dedicated readers :P We pay you to rant, me bucko. Well, we pay shit, but still. It's the principle of the matter, dammit :)

Glad to hear K's basically okay except for the discomfort. I'd have to concur with serpentstar however. Climbing trees ought to be part of more job descriptions. I believe my new job will mostly entail just climbing walls ;)

How long till the new windows pay for themselves? Knowing you, you got the highest-efficiency modern tech multi-pane, gas-filled option and it's probably powered by Ubuntu or sumpn, eh?

That sounds like a weekend made of suck.

Sorry about the house being an expensive bitch.

Good thing about K being alright. You really need to watch that right hook. ;-)

I'm glad K hit the ground successfully and didn't break anything important. Next time she should aim for the ground and miss. According to Douglas Adams, she'd be flying then ;)

Hugs for the girl!
