It's raining outside, rather heavily from the sound of it. Nearly makes me want to find something to clothe myself in and go out to stand in the rain.

I've managed to do very little today. I ate lunch after rising at the ever so early hour of 11ish. I applied to jobs. And I'm currently catching up on LJ. I feel rather lazy ... but I can't find the energy to do much. I never seem to have much energy anymore. I feel as if I'm always playing catch up.

I think we'll change out the sheets on the bed and shelve the A's tonight. The books have been stacked up in their alphabetic piles all over the living room for a week now. I wouldn't allow the shelving to start until I created a database to track our library and then I didn't want to start while I was missing books. Luckily we found my missing King novels last night. Good thing too or I would have had to hurt somebody. It was the majority of my hardback King novels. We can't have me loosing those.

I got a chance to talk with a friend last week and it really helped me solidify my issues over a particular quandary. popfiend has a wonderful habit of pointing out the painfully obvious and making it not hurt quite so much. I'm glad that makes time to chat with me now and again. His advice is always spot on, though he never says anything my heart hasn't already said once or a million times already.

We visited some friends this weekend. They'd called to see if maybe we could help them with a computer issue. Their Dell was not seeing the integrated network card. I managed to fix it. While I was happy that I got things working, I was far more impressed with Apis and them. I was actually spoken to about the issue with the thought that I would have an idea of how to fix it. I was not talked down to or treated like a pet that needs to be pushed back into the corner. Apis didn't jump to the front and try to do it all because the man should be smarter than the woman. He allowed me to troubleshoot the problem and helped out as he could. That means far more to me than having the geek knowledge necessary to fixing their system.
