good and bad

Itch, Itch, Itch! I don't know if I got a bunch of bug bites on Sunday while clipping the seeds heads off the teasels, or yesterday while walking across the grass to get to the Cupertino library, but no matter which is to blame the itching needs to stop RIGHT NOW!
Arg. GM had to buy a locking gas cap, as his tank's been drained twice. This is supposed to be a nice neighborhood. 
I hate my job. I shouldn't, they pay me lots of money and don't ask for much but I can feel my brains leaking out my ears. It's amazing how debilitating being treated like you are stupid is. 
My shoulder's been bothering me again, so I've been trying to do things lefhandedly. Now my left elbow hurts. The Dr said it's "bowling elbow", like the more common tennis elbow. Grrr. Too much gardening, apparently. 
I have to put together a CD of limbo music for work.

On the other hand,
I got home from work yesterday to find my favorite brother-in-law had made herb cheese biscuits. Yum. He left the recipe behind too.
GM has a new job to start on the 11th. It's not far from where I work, so we could carpool a few days a week. It will be sad not to come home to a ready dinner, and I'll miss all the little projects he's been doing around the house.

Tank draining in that neighborhood? Wow, I guess removing whiskey gulch didn't cut down on the goofuses....

A new job for GM? Doing the same stuff?

I think it's just the increase in price, rather than an increase in jerks. At $60 a tank, it must seem a worthwhile risk.
GM's new job is somewhat like his old one. I think. You might drop him a line if you've got his gmail address.

Could the itch be allergies to things? Bummer for all the various irritations.

Nope, they are clearly bites. I'm thinking must be fleas, as they are not mosquitoes. I've got a bunch from ankles to knees and no where else, which also leads me to think it was something on the ground, rather than a flyer.

Yeah, that fits for fleas. Flea bites itch for days and days, on me.
