It appears that some folks that I thought weren't capable of showing their updatedness in the blogroll are all of a sudden doing so! That means either free blogspot has made a change, or everyone's all of a sudden upgraded to Blogger Pro, or blogroll did something fun. Or maybe they're just self-pinging. And I'm pinging again! Phew. (UPDATE: It turns out that Blogroll did something fun!)

In other news, the theme for Sunday was Guilt! We ran into some friends of the fam while out at dinner last night (it was the Kellys, Em). In a span of 20 minutes, they managed to a) make me feel bad for not currently working ("you mean you're not waitressing or anything?"); b) feel obligated to babysit their kids (I can sorta handle that, good karma and all); and c) make me feel like I absolutely should take them up on the opportunity to substitute teach at my no-longer-existing grade school's archrival grade school up the road (the prospect of all that extended time with school-aged kids gives me the heebie jeebies). On the other hand, they hooked me up with the name of two recruiters.

I proceeded to have some kind of work/money-related stress attack last night that prevented me from sleeping for several hours even though I was nice and relaxed when I got into bed, and even moreso shortly thereafter. I am convinced it was brought on by the earlier episode at dinner.

The fine fine weather, however, keeps me in good spirits and I pray that Airborne Express comes back soon like the said they would when they dropped off the box, so I don't have to call them to whisk my computer off to Memphis so Apple can replace the logic board again.
