May. 24th, 2015 10:12 amNeither Scott nor I slept well last night. His cold includes a nasty cough, and his bi-PAP is really giving him a lot of trouble. I have no idea why I didn't sleep, but I tossed and turned for hours. Well, my right ankle hurt a fair amount, but I've slept with it acting up before. I don't know.
I've gotten my Remix assignment, and I'm tentatively pleased. I haven't actually read any of the fics I could remix yet; I've just been skimming through blurbs and seeing which characters are tagged. My remixee's pet characters and pairings aren't mine, and they seem to be doing a lot with the portion of canon I don't know so very well, but I'm confident I can make it work. If I can't, they have three stories in another fandom I know, and those have characters I'm pretty confident I can work with.
Scott's parents had Amazon ship my birthday present to me directly. I was very startled by that because that's not normally something they'd do. We'll be seeing them this afternoon for the birthday gathering (there are four May birthdays), so they could have given them to me then. Of course, they may have been thinking that the package wouldn't arrive until Tuesday or Wednesday, and that would make getting the contents to me difficult.
I spent a little time last night deleting some of my music. I stuck with stuff I own on CD, for the most part, but I did delete a bunch of Christmas music that I don't own in any other form. Scott's got a lot of Christmas music (and more storage space), and very little of what I had was of the sort where I could sing along which is what I want from Christmas music.
Scott can't find the Mountain Lion CDs, so upgrading my OS is on hold for the moment. I really do hope he can find them. Not being able to get Google docs to work in Safari is giving me real problems. Google is 90% of what I use Safari for. The rest is staying logged in to various Metanews accounts so that I don't have to keep logging in and out of the things I use both personally and for Metanews.
I don't know when Scott will be able to do the grocery shopping, and it's an issue because we're out of the things I would normally eat. We're also out of the things Scott prefers to eat when he's this sick. I'm not sure exactly where we stand for things Cordelia will eat, but I suspect that's not good either.
Cordelia and her friends have reached their target of raising $80 to donate to charity. They're going to give me the cash and have me make the donation to Oxfam. They can never remember the name of the charity they picked (they heard about it from a friend whose mother donates regularly. I asked her what the charity was, and she told me). I just have to bring my purse into the living room so that I have my credit card handy.
