 Finally got that week behind me. I have to go back to that office next week too, but at least this ones over.

 I think I might be crazy. It just hit me as I was looking on Etsy for vintage Desert Rose dishes, Silver teapots, sparkly jewelry, vintage pyrex... I'm sitting here in Motorcycle boots and a leather jacket. If there's a weirder person I don't know who it would be. If I died tomorrow and they had an estate sale of all my stuff they'd swear I was either a stripper or an 89 year old woman. I have framed portraits (16x20) over 100 years old of mostly young women, or children, framed photos of flappers, all kinds of cookbooks (food porn) pyrex, about 5 sets of dishes, plus random handpainted china, about 80 different teapots, and more holiday decorations than 3 families would need and a good library's worth of books of every kind (except romance), along with 6 pair of thigh high boots and 150 pair of high heels, and unknown amounts of slinky mini dresses. I make no sense.

 Mom called and said my brother is in the hospital in houston with the swine flu and walking pneumonia. I hate that, but I don't really know him anymore. I've seen him once or twice in 20 years. We've never had a good relationship. He's three years younger and the only person I've ever had actual physical battles with. (in HS) and I lost frequently. I hope he's okay.

 We're going out tonight and I'm ready. (Chris is ready to get rid of us for a while.)
