Dads, Migraines and Bartleby

He hasn't signed anything yet. I keep leaving pens around the house just in case... different colors and types. But so far nothing.

Sally's husband (Mr. Sally) has started calling him Bartleby. Because Mr. Sally is smarter than the rest of us, and also very funny. (I had to look it up, too, so don't feel bad if you have to click on the link!)
Bartleby has been in a much better mood lately, and says that he is glad I took the step to get the papers together and that he'll be out by the end of next week. Of course, how often has he said one thing and then decided that he would "rather not" do that thing when it's time?

My daddy (for one has to say "daddy" when one's daddy is offering a large sum of money to make everything better) is refinancing the house for me. I'll be paying the house payment as usual, but on my own it wouldn't happen. It sort of makes me feel like one of those girls who calls her daddy whenever she gets into trouble and daddy throws money at it. I think that the reason my daddy is willing to throw money at this situation is because I am not typically that girl.

Speaking of girls... Bean has started getting my migraines. It's hereditary, so I knew it was just a matter of time. She's not in school today. I brought her to work with me and she's drinking a lot of water and taking ibuprofen and resting (under my desk). I told her she could get on the computer if she felt like it, but before she could "play" she had to go to Web MD and research migraines, migraine triggers and migraine treatments. Staying home every time you have a migraine isn't an option if you get them as often as I do... and she needs to figure out what methods of coping will work for her.

In knitting news, I finished my February STR socks and cast on for a new pair last night... but my head was hurting too and I cast on backwards (don't ask, it's a 2 at a time thing). I couldn't face casting on again so I just shoved everything in my bag and knitted on my ballband dish towel for awhile. When in doubt, knit simple.

I may also have accidentally placed a large order at The Loopy Ewe. Even though I have YET to finish a sweater, I am now in two sweater KAL's. One at Twist and now one with TLE. When will I learn?!? Want to hear my justification? TLE offered a 20% discount on Dream in Color Classic if you bought it for the KAL. There. That's why.

It's a sickness.
