still alive, not kicking

More details of my weekend (which was loads of fun) later. I seem to have caught my annual November cold of doom a few days early this year, and have spent the majority of today sleeping. Ugh.

Linkies:
Indiana Jones discovers his application for tenure has been denied. (nicked from the fabulous yendi)
Stories that would have turned out differently if the protaganists had had cell phones.

Saturday, late afternoon, I recieve a package slip in our mailbox; I have something waiting for me at the local postal outlet with 2.70 postage due or duty fees or something. I assume it's the BPAL swap I'm getting from Canada, think nothing of it, move on.

Today I get the BPAL swap coming from Canada in the regular mail (having had not enough energy to go to the post office, so the package of mystery is still there.)

WTF? Maybe one of my family sent Seaners a birthday gift or something? How unexpected.

Chris informs me that Sean tucked the little down throw over me while I was sleeping on the couch this afternoon. Aww. <3

In other news, our Large Stripey Cat has become COMPLETELY NEUROTIC and is pissing on our bed. Four times in five days, with the litter changed totally twice in that time. I have no clue why this is happening - as far as I know nothing's changed in the past week but this has GOT to stop. I'm sick of washing sheets... any ideas? I don't want to give him to the shelter, but if this doesn't stop, we may have to.
