A little behind...

Ironically, writing at work was doing me a lot of good. I had so much fun over the weekend that I barely took time to write. Weekends are tough for me because that's when I like to spend time with other human beings. Next weekend, however, I will have no such constraints. The weekend after that is my birthday party, grocery shopping, and dinner with my bro and sis-in-law at his place.

Holiday shopping is underway. Trying to think of good gifts to make people this year. A few people will be getting new hats, some will likely get granola after I make it. H is getting the WoW expansion and some movies and clothes and Onion books and stuff. H's fam will get breads and cookies.

I need advice about light bulbs. I bought one of those curly bulbs for my living room lamp, because I've seen them in other people's houses and they were great. But it doesn't fit in my lamp, even though the wattage is fine. So what is a really good, bright lightbulb to use in a lamp? It can be up to 100 watts. I've tried white light, clear and frosted, and they are all too dim. I'm going blind in my own living room. Fie!!!

Don't forget: my birthday party is on Saturday the 22nd.
Many of you have yet to RSVP.

What sort of lamp is it? They make those energy saver bulbs in several types, one of which might very well accommodate your lamp. We are exclusively using energy saver bulbs here, so I will try to figure it out if I can.

It's one of those floor maps that points toward the ceiling.

The bulb has a a big base above the part that screws in, so it doesn't fit in the lamp. I'm bummed too, this one bulb cost $4 and H didn't want to spend on it.
