Random Musings on a Friday Night

There were many Friday nights a few years ago when I'd be all sad that I was home, alone, doing nothing--now I treasure these nights.

Not that tonight was really one of them--the house I'm staying in is full of kids on Friday nights, Aunty M hosts 6 kids for the evening & overnight--how cool! So I chilled out with the young'uns...and now it's to bed with me--I seem to have caught a cold somewhere.

I had to start up my computer to get an address for a thing tomorrow, so of course I end up online...not that I'm actually dealing with my full email inbox, but I did logon to the salon personals--something I do occasionally, though I have yet to actually purchase "credits" so I can send messages to people and actually date--it's weird thing. Cool. weird. I'm not sure what I want. Or if I really want to do the online dating thing--I think I"ll try it in the new year--check back and see in a month or so!

And I'm still getting screwed over by YVA (the elections group I worked for)--my huge reimbursement check bounced a second time. When the bank guy on the phone told me, "f**k" was my immediate response, which I then apologized to the guy for...and then called the one remaining staff person for YVA who didn't say anything useful... my options at this point:
* keep calling
* write nasty letters
* get all of my friends to write nasty letters
* stage a sit in at their DC offices
* publicize it all over the internet
* work any connections I can find in the Democratic party to raise hell for the Young Democrats (the still-existing fiscal sponsor of YVA)
* find a lawyer
* file in small claims court (anyone want to impersonate me in DC so I don't have to go?)
* crawl into a hole and pretend this election never happened & come out after y'all succeed in the revolution & money doesn't matter anymore

Really, I just want my frickin money & to be done with the horrible experience...we'll see how long it takes!

Finally (and to keep this quite random), here's the question of the month: if you could only have 3 spices/herbs, what would they be? (no, salt & onion don't count--but pepper & garlic do)
