nightdog_barks: Can of Maryland Club ground coffee (Coffee)
[personal profile] nightdog_barks
Husband's alarm went off at 3:45 this morning. Not an electrical bug -- he actually had to get up in order to catch the red-eye to Miami for a business trip. So although I did go back to sleep, I'm a little zonked today. Sunny and warm; we're not expected to get any rain from the South Texas hurricane.

[livejournal.com profile] bironic -- I got your postcard yesterday! It's lovely -- the Madaba Mosaic Map is just awesome. *hugs*

And now ... more coffee.

Hey there, Nightdog. I just this second put up an Update Post of my own (however brief), partly because I figured you wouldn't be making one this morning.

Or ... afternoon, here in Florida. I'm packing up artwork now and have already cleaned out the bed of my F-150, which is where most of the art is going to ride. I think.

My fish tank, betta, and the table on which the tank lived, all went out the door to a friend of mine yesterday. Two fewer things to worry about.

ETA: 3:45?!? Blurgh. And he has to go to Miami? In July? He has my condolences. As do you for the rudely-awokenness. Also: more coffee here, too.

Well, it's just for two days -- he'll be back tomorrow night, so that's good. But ... 3:45. Yeah.

And yay! for moving! I love road trips.

Normally, I too love road trips. This one, however, promises to be fraught with aggravation, mostly because:

1. pulling 12' trailer

2. self, Mom, and Cat (in carrier, but still) all in single-cab 1996 F-150.

At least the truck has bench seats and I have drugs for the cat.

No drugs for Mom?

... JOKE. I'M JOKING.

Hee. I'm very glad you're not making this drive alone, though.

*laughs hysterically*

For my mom, the only necessary drug is chocolate.

For me, there will absolutely be either a beer or a glass of red wine with dinner each night. Absolutely.

I have a vision of the cat driving after she's slipped you a mickey of kitty valium. :D

Yay! And it looks like Mare got hers, too, so all is okay with the postal service (and with Roga, who kindly mailed them for me as I dashed off the last ones practically on the way to the airport).

Oh my! I saw Roga's name on it and ...

*headdesk*

I blame it on Frantic Moving Syndrome.

Hee! From one jet-lagged adventurer to one frenzied relocator. I signed my name weirdly and small on yours before her postscript, so no worries. :D

I got mine yesterday, too! I meant to comment on one of your entries to say so, but I got multitasking and it slipped my mind. I fail!

No fail! I'm glad you got it. Have no recollection whatsoever of what I wrote, but still glad you got it. *g*

Gah. Poor Mr. Nightdog! I hope he sneaked in a morning nap on the plane.

Feeling pretty zonked myself. I'm back to having the "lie awake until 2:30, stagger out of bed at 7:30" brand of insomnia.

Crap. I left a huge long comment, and then my browser ate it.

Anyway, 3:45! EEEK!

Z is napping (here's hoping for 2 solid hours!) so I am playing online. And waiting for the mechanic to call and tell me what the hell is wrong with my car.

p.s. You did not happen to get one from Poland as well, did you? I'm afraid to think that none of those are arriving. My sister didn't get hers.

*shakes head*

Nothing from Poland yet, but I'll keep an eye out. It's probably just taking longer ...

I just hope the hotel clerk who said they'd mail them didn't forget. It was three weeks ago already, and I sent out about four cards from there. Well, we'll see.
