Ever since yesterday afternoon I've had sour stomach and heartburn. :-( Maybe if I drink a lot of water today it'll go away. I don't have any Tums or anything. Whoa. Intermittent waves of nausea. My system's all out of whack.
Looks like I'm gonna be moving after all. Rent's going up, there's no way around it. It's too much. I'll find something. FedEx delivered the sandals I ordered from L.L. Bean to the leasing office. I don't want to go over there to retrieve the parcel; I don't want to deal with those people. I'm procrastinating.
Went for a run earlier and got caught in some rain, which was nice. I wish it would rain some more. Now I'm tempted to soak in the tub and/or take a nap ... got so much to do though. I was considering asking Mike if he'd mind dropping by my apartment once a day for a few days to feed the kitties while I go visit my parents. The place would have to be spotless.

Dude, I made a bargain with God and now I have to pay up. Earlier I was napping when the smoke alarm went off. It does that if I'm cooking sometimes, so although I didn't have any heating elements activated in the apartment, I stood beneath the smoke alarm and fanned it, trying to get it to stop that shrill, unbearable shrieking. I was unsuccessful so I poked my head out the door and saw that the whole building's alarm had gone off. So I went outside where some people were gathering but it didn't appear that there was any crisis. There wasn't any smoke or anything. Damn alarm was just malfunctioning. I went back upstairs and tried to call the cats to take them outside because that alarm hurt my ears so you know it hurt theirs, but they were well-hidden and I couldn't find them. After a good twenty to thirty minutes, the fire department arrived and shut the alarm off. In my 2-1/2 years living here, that's never happened before.
So anyway, I was totally praying, "Oh God, please please please please don't let anyone have to enter my apartment! I'll do anything you say, I'll start cleaning up right away, please please please please!" So now it's time to put my money where my mouth is.
My new sandals are pretty kewl. I wanted to buy some Teva's but they're $75, which I can't justify spending. But L.L. Bean came out with some knock-off's for $30 and I like them just fine. Also bought a pair of flip-flops, which I haven't worn in years, and the thong part hurts between my toes.
