getting ready for the coast trip tomorrow: i have watered the tree, worked out lists of things to pack, deposited a check in the mail, written out my resolutions, and know what i'm going to do w/ my 15 minutes (read my favorite poem).
i also finally called toyota to make trixie's last two payments, but they don't accept credit cards. :( so i got transfered to another department which did payment options: they moved my november & december payments to the end of the term, which means the only payment i have to make next is the january one (sort of like forbearance, and like forebearance, it tacks that extra time to my contract and accrues interest). i'm really all weird about living this way. january is looking good, but february is a big void again.
what i still need to do: shower, work on the holiday CarD, the yl site, actually pack, visit seeger's cats one last time, go to pix to see "the muppets take manhatten," a load of laundry, food shopping (since i'm helping with the first meal tomorrow), and poem-printing.
maggie from psu had said she would need me to do some testing on the webct server tonight & tomorrow morning since they just did a big migration, but i haven't heard from her, so i suspect that's not happening. darn. the only work i have due for her at this point is an analysis due jan. 12.
i went to see rob on sunday and when i left it -snowed-! big fat eye-sized flakes! driving home was like driving through colorado, and it took me, like, four hours to crawl home. it was gorgeous! and it's lasting, too! michael says it might even snow more. :D
