I need to figure out what i'm doing wrong. My weekends are not leaving me with a feeling of being rested & rejuvenated for the new week at all, despite not doing a goddamn thing with the free time.

 

The visit from the in-laws worked out okay - "lets tidy up a bit" turned into "lets drag everything out & re-stack the boxes so we have a living room again". Of course they showed up while we were still working on things, and so they had to dodge around boxes in the kitchen & halls, but they were making noises about how nice a condo it was.

 

Other excitement for the weekend: This salvage guy Freak made friends with turned into a psyco, & managed to piss Freak off. He'd been getting & bringing us specialty items that were definitely WORTH something, like copies of Office & some electrical parts & tools that normally sold for several hundered dollars, & i'd been listing them on Craigslist with the agreement that we'd get a 40/60 split on anything that sold. Well, Monday morning he was texting Freak demanding payment for the items he'd left with us, and the items we'd already sold, even though there hand't been any responses on many of them at this point. Freak, pissed off at dealing with them, took all the stuff that hadn't sold & put it in a crate & we dropped it off with their share of the cash from the stuff that HAD sold. They were doing the thing were they were like, "no returns! & you owe us $50 more than you do!" So, via text message, freak told them to look at the printouts of the cancelled craigslist ads & to never call again. On the one hand, my ferenghi little soul is sad that a source of salable items has gone away, but on the other hand, if they're incapable of treating this like a business, then why put up with it?

 

Then - THEN! Josh came over with the latest tales from the strip club. I swear, hearing his adventures is utterly HILARIOUS. He went home, then came back the next day with <lj user="curiosityscat"> in tow!!! OMG!!! He hadn't realized, when he was telling me about the new waitress at the club that he was picking on, that she was our KouchKitten! So, he showed up with her in tow, there were hugs, and she introduced me to a bunch of Jrock that I promptly downloaded a shitload of.  So, need Need NEED to get myself a 100-pack spindle of blank CD's. Must burn stuff for car. MUST.  Oh, and fuzzy showed up while they were off getting food, & he gave me a teeny bit of cash and we talked about how much he owed me for the cellphone bill.  So when he comes up with the cash to pay that off, that will be happy.

 

Today before work I went in & renewed my costco membership finally. So I will be able to go back to buying lasagnas on a bi-weekly basis like before, and 25-lb bags of rice for $6. Life will be good.
