Couch change can buy groceries...

There was another huge thunderstorm here today, around 4. I kind of wish it had happened later (read: now) so it would give me something to listen to. The rain helps me relax. Seems like I'm going have to invest in one of those weird white-noise sleep machines. As long as there's no birds chirping...that drives me insane when I'm trying to sleep.

CoinStar is an awesome thing. Little did I know that we had almost a hundred bucks laying around the apartment in nickles, dimes and pennies. We ended up with $98.49, works for me. Free money almost. I look forward to being able to save my spare quarters, too...when I won't have to spend 8 of them to do a load of laundry in machines that work only when they feel like it. It was all a nice flashback to me paying my phone bill in small change and one fun afternoon of rolling dimes in the Key Bank lobby so I could cash them in (I had a coffee habit that would drop a yuppie.)

3 days til Harry Potter. Yeah... I'm a Potter freak.

I was thinking about my old job today. Yep, still feel the same-- Fuck 'em. I hope it sucks there now as much as it did when I was there, only now they get to do my job.
