I could be playing MarioKart

I left the house in such a rush this morning that I left my wedding rings at home. It’s weird not having them, even though when I’m home I never wear them. I can’t stand not having them in public.

The last few weeks have been a blur. The house stuff has been going well and we close in 15 days. I’m excited, but it still doesn’t really seem real. Once we close and start buying paint I think it will feel more real. But then I won’t have time to be excited, because the plan is that we’re supposed to close on the house at 10am. If all that goes according to plan, we will buy paint after that and go to the house and start taping off the baseboards etc. so we can paint over the weekend. I might have Christen do the things he wanted to do the same weekend, like replace the toilets, the bathroom lighting, the tract lighting in the kitchen, the living room fan and the thing that goes over the stove (what’s that thing called?) ... a range hood. As a matter of fact, now that I look at that list maybe we’ll paint the following weekend.

I’ve set my electric, pest control and lawn maintenance up and I thought I had set up my water until I got home and found the email that told me that the city doesn't take care of my water at that address and to contact county. So that's on tomorrow's list, along with cable and the moving van.

Spencer's doing well. He's sleeping beside me right now; he seems to take a short nap most days when he comes home from daycare. I'm not looking forward to changing his daycare even though I'm sure he'll be fine at the new one (Laura, he's coming to Orien's daycare). He loves the girls and they're crazy about him. I told them today that he was going to be leaving in July and they were sad. It has to be done though; I made the drive from work to the daycare and then past where we'll be living and it took an hour and a half. Blah!

Have you seen this browser called Flock? Christen downloaded it for me yesterday, but I haven't really messed with it. It keeps all your log-ins for all the social networking sites -- Twitter, Blogger, Facebook, You Tube ... really, everything except MySpace, which I can't figure out unless they have some sort of beef with MS. If it works the way I want it to, it'll be pretty neat.
