<smug westerner>It is beautiful out today. I am wearing shorts and a t-shirt, and I'm just now starting to think that maybe I should close the windows.</smug>
This weekend I am cleaning my damn house, since I have temporary water, and aiding and abetting in any way I can the good hard-working folks who are here to give me permanent water.
Also, I am toying around with house plans, planning vacation (Tucson!), and catching up on office work for next week. However unexciting, these are things I haven't been able to do for a while, so I am catching up.
Also, I am eating meat, since I broke Lent yesterday in a fit of pique which is now being addressed, see above re: water.
It's in the mid-seventies outside here, for God's sake. It's nuts. (Of course, we also got to have the Official Declaration of Drought yesterday, so, er, I suppose I should feel a little guilty about enjoying the sun.)
Ooh, and I got actual volcanic ash on my car from St. Helens this week! I mean, not a lot, but it was there.
Tonight I am going to my last dance class
for a whole week!
So I'd better make that good. Then I need to pack. I might possibly hang out with some family in town. I'll be sad for a few minutes (from 10:00-10:15, perhaps) that I won't get to see any buffistas this weekend. Not even the new honorary buffista, ita's apartment. Then I'm going to hang out in the airport for a whole big bunch of hours tomorrow, and perhaps figure out how to use that free wireless internet they keep talking about, since I'll have about five hours to kill. Then I will be flying to NY. Where I will get to see my kitty cats! Yay! And my family! Also yay! The rest of my plans are rather amorphous and dependent upon other peoples.
But I will be sad to leave all the PRETTY PRETTY weather we've been having for the crap ass weather of the NE.
right now 81 and sunny
sobbing
Even though it is above freezing and fairly tolerable, if rainy, out. I'm just tired.
You know what I hate? I hate when my body gets into a mode wherein food is gross. I eat because I don't want to turn into a headachy, whiney, sick emotional mess and because last I ate was a cheese stick 8 hours ago, but then I get to feel queasy while eating and for a good couple of hours after. Ick.
I'm all excited because I'm home in time to see the TLC Friday night shows the first time around, so I don't have to stay up til 2 am. Phew!
You dodged that bullet, Jesse!
Er, or something like that.
Now tomorrow I can get up bright and early to study. Yay fun. I will also put CDs onto my computer. It's kind of occured to me that it would be like launch.com, except slightly less random.
Drive to the mountains with sister, niece, and niece's friend, ski two days, come home exhausted and broke with no clean clothing for next week.
There may be beer in there. And sunburn, if the weather holds.
Argh!
So, there's been a train de-railment, which is bad bad bad, and I hope everyone on the train is okay.
My 10AM train for tomorrow morning? Is now a 1:45 train tomorrow afternoon.
