I think I have a court date - May 1. (Remember that this is probate court we're talking about, so in this case a court date is a good thing.) It still has to be confirmed, but from what the lawyer was saying, it sounded like the confirmation had more to do with exactly what time we would be there than with what date. So yay! I might not have to pay next month's townhouse maintenance fee out of my own money!

As you may or may not have noticed, I haven't had a lot to say lately. I've been pretty busy at work, and that's where I tend to post the most. And as long as I keep playing AutoAssault all obsessively, don't expect to see me posting much from home. (I have been playing AA so much that I have 3 characters over level 20 now - my human is at 30, my mutant is right behind at 29, and my biomek is at 21 or so.) Also I have commitments two of the next four weekends, which is unusual for me. Next weekend I am going to a quilt retreat, and two weeks after that I am going to see my aunt - which may also involve quilting. I haven't done much quilting in a long time - not since my mom got really sick last fall - so it should be good to get going on that again.

The tags for this entry remind me of a conversation I had with a midwestern law school classmate who was trying to explain Meijer's to me (this was back in the days before Walmart and other mega-stores became ubiquitous, and I'd never encountered anything like it on the East Coast where I'd lived up till that point). Anyway, he said, "Name three things you'd never expect to find in the same store." I said, "Men's blazers, shotguns and milk." He said, "Nope, Meijer's has them all." Likewise, I never would have expected probate, online gaming and quilting to show up in anyone's entry; I guess you're the Meijer's of journalling! Good luck for May 1.

This is just typical of me, really - my brain tends to be all over the place. (Just ask columbina.)

We don't have Meijer's down here either, but they do have them in Ohio where my in-laws live, and somehow they always seem to me to achieve a level of zaniness with their product selection that exceeds even Wal-Mart's - or maybe it's just a difference in the way their merchandise is displayed, I'm not sure. (Although as a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure the Wal-Mart across the street from my house does carry men's blazers, shotguns and milk.)
