Today is Thursday, and the pups have been sent to boarding school so that momma can have a nice, peaceful weekend...of cleaning! The 3rd installment of Open House is this Sunday, so I've set to getting the place ready. I dropped the pups off after work tonight, played for a bit, and then went out to deadhead the hydrangeas and pull some sundry weeds. I also got the sprinkler going, so that we'll have a nice green lawn this weekend. We got a little rain night before last, and it's supposed to rain again, but I figured I'd get some water in the ground while the pups are gone--just in case the weather man turns out to be wrong *cough*--neverrightanyway--*cough*. So that was a new bit of excitement for me--hauling out the hose and tearing the $4 sprinkler out of the box. It all seems to be going well, aside from the fact that the hose hookup is leaky like a bugger, so I have a bucket under the faucet to prevent flooding.

I have some laundry to attend, and the sprinkler to move, and then I think I'll go to bed early and read a bit. I was up until 2am last night on the game--but I hit the level cap, so it's all good! I am now a l33t d00dee. Except that, thank heaven, I have no idea how to type "l33t 5p34k". Anyway, it was fun to hit the cap; now I can help out my lower level friends, *or* hang out with all the higher-ups in the Guild. :) Yah, I'm a huge geek. I'm okay with that. I have plenty of time to get a life.

I hereby promise a much more intelligent post sometime over the weekend.

And HI to my newest added reader, Chris in Dallas! Don't forget to post your comments, man! Hellos to the missus and James. :)
