Lots of Little Things: Real Life

gonzaiI haven't been posting much, so I figured I'd best pile it all into two posts, one of RL and one of fandom.
My nephews' great-grandmother (or my sister-in-law's grandmother, if you prefer) died last week at age 96. Went to the viewing Monday night, where there were around 8-9 great-grandkids scampering about and another one due in 3 weeks. Packed house, too. She had quite a life.
Seems I had a dentist appointment yesterday. I found out when they called Tuesday to remind me. The day before reminders are an awfully good idea, I must say.
Finally got off my duff and onto Ebay, where I went a little crazy on baseball cards but did all of my shopping for the whole season. I'm strictly Orioles prospects now, so I'll pick up the team sets as they come out and otherwise I'm set. Now to actually drag myself out the door to a game come April...
Finally got the computer room cleaned up. Next up: the bedroom, which I did start with some dusting. It needs more than that. Meanwhile, Mom is threatening to throw out everything in the basement, without asking me. That could be the end of my art business as most of my inventory is down there. I gotta hope she has no followthrough.
Speaking of the end of my business, Michael's turned up on a list of endangered businesses today. And if they go down, so does most of my business; they're the only distributor of the wood planks I use, and not only the distributor but the manufacturer of the Christmas tree ornaments. If Michael's disappears, so does about 2/3ds of Gonzai Gallery. Eep.
It hasn't been a good week for dogs. That evil man in Alabama started his spree by killing his mother's dogs. And then there's this pair. www.baltimoresun.com/news/local/annearundel/bal-md.briefs122mar12,0,6003104.story
Geez, I sure hope they never reproduce. Sick, sick, sick.
