Well...Let's see...

My parents' basement smells like an old Episcopal/Catholic/Eastern Orthodox church. The Water Department has been smoking the sewers to find leaks. My brother's bathroom is downstairs. He has a tendency to shower upstairs in winter. Incense smoke goes up through his shower drain (because he's showered upstairs), and the fire alarm goes off. Big dummy, me, I forgot that the Water Department was still doing this. So, I run downstairs, and find the basement is filled with smoke. Not wood or electrical fire smoke. Sweet smelling smoke. I still go looking to see if any of the walls are hot (hard to do when the walls are stone and mortar), and they aren't. So I scream for my stepdad, and take the fire alarm battery out (*makes mental note to put it back*), and explore more. Of course, he remembers what's going on, and notes that most of the smoke is coming from my little brother's bathroom. The shower drain, to be precise. Excitement on a day I originally did not want to get out of bed. Joy joy.

I also got a bill from the University for (drumroll, please) a whopping $ 2572.58...which, I called and found out that the day AFTER they sent it, my meal and housing was cancelled. Dear Lord, do it the day before, not after. I nearly had a coronary. >.< It's down to $236.03, but I've got to pay that off before I can get my transcripts to send in my application. Rockhurst should show up soon. I have to go in Monday to Penn Valley, and get that one. And working at Godiva, still. I get to be a keyholder again, I think... yay!

I'm not looking forward to the weather for the weekend. Absolutely not. Those people who like snow, you're crazy. Bloody crazy. Ew.

I'm cooking tonight! Since my brother and I are starting to get into cooking, we each get one night a week that we get to cook for the rest of the family. Tonight's menu is:

Catfish Meunière

Cornbread Stuffing

Green Salad ~OR~ Cole Slaw

Corn Fritters (possibly)

Anyway...I've got to get started on dinner soon.  Whee...

I miss my antistotic so much.

Love, let me know how your calls go... I'm hoping only the best for you!

Later...
