That makes no sense
Dec. 19th, 2011 10:54 pm- After three years of successfully resisting being saddled with a crackberry, I lost the fight today. A BlackBerry Torch was delivered to me at work. My argument was that in the event of an emergency, the bb was useless -- I could respond to emails but every program needed to do substantive work requires a Citrix secure login. Alas, I have been overruled. It's shiny and pretty, and the touch screen is going to be scratched or marred very quickly because it didn't come with a case or any sort of protective covering. Why? Who knows.
+ Apparently I *am* hosting dinner on Friday. I guess that means I should figure out a menu? Maybe beef stew again, since it turned out well the first time and is pretty simple. I can pick up the ingredients that afternoon or even on Thursday.
~ First batch of no bake peanut butter bars is done. Now I need one loaf of banana nut bread, at least two batches of cracker candy, and then one more batch of PB bars. Guess I know what I'll be doing tomorrow night and Wednesday evening...
- Why isn't Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy playing at the Landmark near me? Do people really still want to see the Bella/Edward trainwreck? Ten screens and only one movie is playing that I'd be willing to pony up for (The Descendants).
:/ The hospital "informational statement" (not a bill to me yet, but what was sent to the insurance company) arrived for my surgery and hospital stay. More than $20,500. For the second iteration; the bill for the first hospital stay was already billed separately. Holy crap! Once again, I am thankful for my insurance.
