Whee!

Going from bad to good:
- Received a traffic ticket by mail; I made a right turn at a red light (apparently that's illegal in WA), for a little over $100. Glad I'm not in Seattle now, otherwise this financial setback would be more of an emergency. Still sucks though.
- Accidentally spent a little bit too much time in the sun and burnt the crap out of my back (while troubleshooting pool components; otherwise I was rather good at taking breaks to not turn into a lobster).
- Lost sight of my phone for most of the day, imagine, a black phone sitting on a black surface. X.x
- Am not currently at a convention due to money.
- I thought about what I could do this weekend that would help me the most, and that train of thought got me to the point of getting the pool set up. Only two things to fix: setting the timer on the pump and filter and fixing two small leaks on either end of a hose with petroleum jelly. If that doesn't work I'll get new seals. Had to get some parts, but spent less than $30 on those parts to get things running (which for a pool is a miracle).
- (EDIT): Perhaps best of all, this feels like the first, non-crisis-like journal I've posted in a couple of years (even if I have posted others).
