so the body's grandmother is coming to stay for a couple of weeks, starting tuesday night. not pleased about this, but i never am. it won't really be much worse than when the brother is here like he is now, in terms of inconvenience/annoyance. but there is the added creepiness of dementia. that kind of thing really unnerves me and i don't handle it too well. the mother came to us and told us that she will eat anything that's in the fridge, so she was throwing out old stuff - which of course means she may very well eat the stuff that bb brings home from work, which is his major daily food source... :/

dealing with some kinda bug or something that has resulted in my throat being all fucked up. i can barely talk now. it isn't irritated like it was the last 2 days, which makes me think i'm on the mend, but i'm still phlegmy. and all the order taking i had to do last night at work made me lose my voice almost entirely.

on a positive note: we're playing second life again and it is fantastic. more online games for me to spend real money on >_> i only put a little in there to get me started, though.

outer life: today is the Solstice, and i took bb out for coffee and donuts. then we stocked up on condoms. haha. good simple day. :v he went out to eat dinner at his mom's house, i was also invited but just didn't feel up to it between being sick and having just gone out. i'm just enjoying having this hard-won night off that i almost didn't get, on this Solstice night.

got a few songs to queue up in winamp, actually, now that i'm thinking about it.

the brother has been given a big empty box and he has been banging loudly on it non stop the entire weekend, day and night. sigh. actually i just asked him to stop and sitting back down at my chair 30 seconds later, he's started again. i'm about to take it from him. [just kidding. i can't do that. he can inconvenience me all he wants, but i can't do the same for the benefit of other people.]
