Taking a break from the month-end bookkeeping
Monday, October 2nd, 2006 02:51 pmThe check, she does not arrive. This is ...distressing.
Mail sent to the old, no-longer-serviced-the-post-office-will-shred-any-letters-bearing-it address actually was delivered. This is ...a provisionally good thing. On the one hand -- the letter did get here, All Rise and Uncover. On the other -- you'd think a company we've been doing business with for eight, nine years would be able to remember our street address from one correspondence to the next, not to say managing to bear in mind the fascinating fact that we live in Maine (ME), and not in Massachusetts (MA).
I did get out for a walk early in the day, enjoying the coolish weather, and keeping a close ear out for gunshots. This, as it turns out, is ...a very good thing, because it looks like the skies are going to open any second now and deliver us some more rain.
Mozart is up and about, which is... in general a good thing, except he wants me to play string with him RIGHT NOW, and it ain't gonna happen.
Scrabble is asleep on top of the file cabinet, which is ...a comforting thing.
Long columns of numbers still need to be added, subtracted, multifried and derided. Which is ...a necessary thing.
