So, August is ending. The semester starts on the 31st. I work nights (11PM - 7AM). I learn days. (8AM - 2PM) I sleep... maybe.
Female company landed* a job in a school in Alden. Starts the 1st of September. Her work hours would keep her out of the house somewhere around when I'm also gone. That would be fine... if there wasn't one massive detail putting a kink in that schedule. Though I'm assured that her sister is more than willing to help out. Problem there is that her sister is on the other side of the Mayo clinic.
Ok, no problem. I'll just move my office into the front room of the house. It's empty anyway. Still, this all starts in less than two weeks, and I'm the obsessive type that wants to make sure everything is set up before my schedule keeps me busy 22 hours a day.
But by saying this in a public forum, I have doomed myself to the inevitable monkey wrench getting tossed at me.
*by landed, I mean they keep telling her they want her, but haven't actually solidified it yet. Yay for school bureaucracy.

The greatest gift of all (not what you think)
Note: my glow worm doesn't glow any more.
Anyhoo, I noticed something. Though tiny over in the next room has a few words to say about how often I should sleep (or rather one word, repeated ad nauseum and in varying tones and styles), he has produced something I haven't seen before.
Free food.
My sister came into town yesterday. She, with my sister in law, cooked for four hours making various foodstuffs that can be stored for months in a freezer, but only need to be put into an oven when I want it. Not just that, but over the last week, I've been on the phone with three people who called asking what time was convenient to drop by with (wait for it...) free food.
I figure I'll teach him how to cook before this dries up.

My sister just had her baby today. Yay her, right?
Most newborns, despite what almost everyone says, are hideous. They're typically a color unknown on humans, their skin is saggy and lumpy, and their faces often resemble Popeye. Seriously, newborn babies look like sausages. Give them a week or two to get used to breathing and by then their skin won't look like it was just soaked for the last nine months.
Oddly enough, this baby did not meet my expectations. Then again, my sister was always like that.
