Just call me Ruth Marx

Today I made an appointment, refilled a prescription, purchased a birthday gift, chatted with friends, checked my bank account (always good for some comic relief) paid an electric bill, and watched a movie. On my computer screen.

If I didn't have a child, I might never leave the house.

I work from home. We've had bronchitis for three weeks, that got especially bad in the last week. I am rapidly becoming an agoraphobic.

Yesterday whats-his-name wanted me to look at a car he was thinking of buying while we were talking on the phone. He said, "Are you online?" Then mumbled "What am I saying, of course you're online".

Ruh row.

Why do I feel like he's caught me in my curlers?

Note to self: Get a tan.

Tony almost hada heart attacj once because I wasn't visible on his list. "Is it possible Leanner is actually NOT online?!?!" When I replied the infarct was avoided. I really wouldn't leave the house if I could avoid it...people are out there and people bug me.

Then a real heartfelt thank you for having dinner with me... I'm touched that you left the house, and that you sat at the same table as me.
