I'm glad things are working out, blue. And I'm glad she's willing to help out.

Third day of having her stay at my place.

Today was her first day of cooking here. We had BBQ Chicken, potatoes, and salad. Before that, we were mostly eating pizza. Not to mention we'd get a 2-liter bottle of soda, which I'd end up finishing up by the end of the day. I like soda and all, but damn it, I'm supposed to be good to myself!

I think tomorrow might be when she leaves. I enjoy having her around. Not only does she have a place to stay, but it also feels very fulfilling taking care of someone when they need it. Plus, she'd help me out a little by cooking, and chiping in on the pizza we would both order. LOL.

Good things will come to you for your good deed At least you both had a good time hanging out together in the process.

@blue: Good to know things turned out okay and that you'll be able to get back to your normal living routine there in your place. Good show, sir. Good show.

Craigslist flakes suck. I just got cheated out of a sweet new bike

Oh yeah? How'd that go down?

I had blood drawn this morning after fasting for 13 hours. I hate getting blood drawn. I always get faint afterwards. This time was different though. I asked to be laying down in one of the rooms with a bed, and it was MUCH easier for me. Now let's just hope my results show my lipid profile is decent. *fingers crossed*

I saw the post at 10 PM Sunday, we arranged for 6:30 PM on Monday, and he gave me the cross streets. At 5:30 I messaged him
"headed towards you soon. do you still have the bike, and where am I going?"
Then I waited 45 minutes for him to write back "NEVERMIND"

I bet that's more anticlimactic than you expected...it was just exactly the kind of bike I want, great condition, and for a good price. It was a deal I had no hesitation on making. And I don't spend easily.

I found more cat bones this morning.  The news said monitor lizards were attacking local pets, but you never think it will happen in your yard.  How do I catch a monitor lizard?

Seriously? Now that's an interesting story.
I read fish or boar guts or fruit in a smoothwalled pit. But what will you do after you trap it?

I'll take it to the wildlife center if I can catch it.  The problem is catching it safely.
