"So did you side swipe Big Bird, or what?"
Those were my husband's first words to me when he walked in the door last night.
My answer was, "No, but that's good. I think I'll use it."
What happened, in fact, was a drive-thru mishap. I was going through a certain fast food restaurant chain on my way home because B. was working late, and I got too close to the pole in front of the pay window, which happened to be yellow.
There's not much denting, but there is ugly yellow paint all over the side of the car. Fortunately, it was the ugly old car.
Oh well, what can you do?

Freelance Barista – or something
Alright, alright, so I haven't posted in awhile. I've been avoiding because I haven't had good news to share.
A few of you know already, but I'm being downsized. The paper has stopped publishing the papers I work on, so after Monday, I have a small severance and no job.
I also have an offer of freelance work from my current boss. So, I'm thinking of freelancing and working at a certain west-coast based international coffee chain for awhile. Or something.
