Bullet Points-ish and a Picture!

And by "points-ish" I mean they are almost points of interest.

• I still love working at the library, if only for the perks of having lots of reasons to be there and get books out. I have ten+ books out on the silk road right now because of fannish stuff. But it's interesting fannish stuff!



• I have brand new tires on Hermes! I was driving out north of town (in the even-more-boondock-than-my-neighborhood areas) with Erin and all of a sudden the front passenger tire just blew. So we changed it and I noticed the tire was practically worn down. No wonder the poor thing blew. But now I have brand spanking new tires (last time I got new tires was before I went to Michigan for my first year at NMU) and they're very fun.



• Buster (the puppy) is adorable and cute, and my parents are still working on paper training him. Which is entertaining as all get out, because he's the one animal I feel no obligation to pick up after. I do get to play with him, though! Yeah, we no longer think he's a Pomeranian mix. We're pretty sure he's a Chow mix of some kind, only hopefully he'll stay a small-ish dog.

• I need to fill out the application for Albertsons, since some of the employees there said they just got out of a hiring freeze. Another job and a discount on groceries? Sounds good to me.



• There is stupidly good weather here. It's 60 flipping degrees outside! It's MARCH! It should not be 60 degrees in MARCH in COLORADO! We better get at least one more good storm, that's all I can say.



• I did register for Sirens. I did it with some of the tax money, which is now way past gone. I don't know if I'm going to get to go or not, because a lot can happen in between then and now. But the hotel it's in would cost $109 for a double (and I'm pretty sure Erin is going to register too... I better call her again...) or $134 for a triple/quad if I can find more.
  
  But, get this! They're going to have weapon and martial arts demonstrations! It's not all going to be networking and academic talk! Probably demonstrations and bookselling out the wazoo! I hope, I hope, I hope I get to go...



• Dude! This is, like, the weirdest thing I've heard, but I'm getting a new credit card with a $7,000 limit! (I know, I know, I'm not going to be irresponsible with it, but it's a huge relief to have that in case I need a new car or an emergency health thing, or whatever. And I get $50 cash back (or 5000 points) with the first purchase. Now I can't decide what to buy with it for a one-time purchase. But being approved for that just improved my credit score by a lot, I'm pretty sure. Because my debt/credit ratio was $536/$900 and now it's $536/$7900.

*sigh* Okay, I have to go get ready for work. I hate shelving...
