susandennisAbout half of the leaves on the Tree I Hate outside my terrace are clinging to the branches with a tenacity which really needs to be admired. We've had wind and rain for a week and many of the leaves have given up. My view is better. No unobstructed but better. The remaining leaves are not a glorious autumn color. They are ugly but goddamnit they are not giving up.

Several years ago, I found this program that I use to create my jigsaw puzzles. I bought it and have been using it ever since. A couple of years ago, the guy updated it and I bought the update. I remember at the time not being thrilled with a couple of his 'enhancements' but I soldiered through.
So after the computer rebuild, I pulled out the original CD figuring I'd load it in and then go to the website and download the upgrade. Only, when I clicked on the 'upgrade' button from my 'get your upgrade here' email, I got the little snotty note that my privileges had expired. Well, fork you very much. So I just started using the old non-upgraded version and now I remember why I liked it so much better! See if you get any more of my $$ Mr. Privileges Expired. Ha!

I'm meeting my friend, Elizabeth, for lunch today. My Mom was a big fan of IHOP. My sister would not be caught dead anywhere near one and my brother was not a fan either so I became Mom's only IHOP connection. After she died, I found myself with a bit of an IHOP jones. And Elizabeth is kind of easy to persuade if you beg. So we're doing IHOP for lunch. Yum!

Jake came to live with me when he was a kitten in the early spring of 1989. Betty came to me when she was about 1 in the summer of 2002. Even after all these years they crack me up. This morning Betty is on top of the refrigerator chasing some demon and Jake will not leave my side for anything making it very hard to type. In a minute, Jake will go claim his spot on the chaise and Betty will be sitting here at my feet asking if it's dinner time yet. They are so funny.

Ok, now I've fucked around long enough. It's time to get to work. Later...
