So anyone have $30,000?
$10K through not living at the current house.
$10K through bonus (hopefully).
$10K through selling the house.
We need to get $60K for the house.
*sigh*

d-word brought up.
Stress.
The baby currently cries a lot which is supposedly what a baby does. The bad thing is he cries during feedings which is supposed to soothe the baby. The baby does not become soothed it is the opposite of soothed at times. So that's very very frustrating.
We're getting a new invoice system to interface with our tax system from an outside vendor.
It's been 11 days and counting. They said it would take 5. We can't do it on our own because it's their software and we're adding one of their modules blah blah blah.
So we're waiting and waiting.
Gah, idiots.
My wife is nine months pregnant and ready to be done.
I have to finish painting the freaking kitchen as the color match was off. Stupid Home Depot.
I still have to paint the basement and the living room.
Too much painting.
My nephew is a wild kid. So how do you discipline someone who isn't your kid? He runs around screaming in the house and his father says, "Stop being such a goofball." Five seconds later it's running around and screaming again.
If I was there and he started terrorizing our dog I wouldn't stand for that but when he is just being undisciplined then what do you do?
Bah.
My father-in-law died a week ago on Friday night. He was 57. A sudden massive heart attack took him on the night that he flew in from Georgia where he was working.
So it sucks.
He was going to meet his newest grandkid Austin Chase and in three months he would've met his other grandkid after he was born. Instead, we had to spend Saturday picking out coffins.
Tricia's mom should be okay if she watches her money. She paid off the house with the life insurance so that's good. She doesn't have to move somewhere else out of the blue.
Anyways, life sucks for a while but it goes on. The hurt fades sort of but it jabs against you at times when you least expect it.
Oh and I have either a sinus infection or allergies. I'm thinking it's a sinus infection. Whoo.
I did the jump to WoW and it's an entertaining game. I like a lot of what they did but the jump is jarring to say the least. I hate the chat system as CoH looks so much better in that regard. I don't like the mapping system as it's annoying to meander around looking for things.
WoW or CoH.
One of my playgroup jumped ship and went to WoW and now another has bought the game. Another person who wasn't doing the CoH thing is playing WoW now.
So, do I jump ship and come back for CoV?
Bah.
It was a long week even though it was actually 4 days only.
Stupid server went down at 10:30 at night. Wouldn't come up at all so I had to drive the 40 minutes to see what was going on. It was either that or have people wonder why their e-mail wasn't working when they got in at 7.
And also I got roped into going to the shower though I don't want to.
And the stupid faucet wouldn't get fixed.
And I just want to play games for a whole day.
And...umm...
So where do you vacation?
It's a question that I thought didn't bug me but it came up this weekend. We got together with several relatives and while chatting some people started talking about vacation. The vacation that was mentioned was in Mexico.
Here's my little rant on Mexican vacations. This person went there purely for beach, sun, and booze. You're going to a poor country where some lame developer created a vacation spot and spending your money giving stuff to said developer. Why would someone do that?
If you want a vacation, go somewhere to expand your mind or to broaden your horizons. Don't go somewhere to sit in the sun and to have the natives cater to you.
I know that to each their own but it's just amazing to me for people to blow their money on sommething like that.
I'm tired again today as I haven't been sleeping all that well the last few weeks. I think now that the wife is pregnant she moves and therefore the dogs move and therefore I'm not getting my sleep.
Bah.
Republicans in Washington are trying to get a new election for governor after the Dems had a recount and 129 votes become the margin for the Dems.
Now the Republicans are trying to get that tossed due to voter error.
Okay, everyone knows that the elections are messed up in some way, shape, or form. Usually it doesn't matter on the large stage of things as the margin is too much. But it seems over in WA the margin is 129.
That's way too small of a margin so you know that the will of the people will never be known. Especially in the urban errors where mistakes can happen such as say King County. The judge admitted that 1600 votes were messed up but wouldn't do anything about it as it's duck and cover time. I loved the article regarding this and the two people who voted by absentee ballot for their deceased. One even said, "I didn't know what else to do." Ummmm. NOT COMMIT VOTER FRAUD?!?!
Amusing.
The weekend is approaching and guess what's on the agenda?
Mowing lawn.
Mowing lawn.
Clean attic.
Clean house.
