I'm getting a lot of cleaning done at the apartment tonight and tomorrow (when it's only supposed to get to 90 or 92 degrees), so I can escape my non-a/c place on Sunday and leave the cat to swelter in it with my box and pedestal fans going full blast. I figure she'll be fine, since she's young, healthy, and smart enough to go into lethargic-mode when it gets hot like this. Last hot spell a few weeks ago, she laid down on the hardwood floor a lot and only meowed at half-volume, but kept on drinking a lot of water and eating her food. Actually, she handled it better than I did, since I don't eat when I get that hot.

Hey, anyone ever heard of this "Firefly" show they're showing on the SciFi Channel?

Oh, that was some crap they made, before they had standards. Fortunately, it was replaced with real quality--Joe Millionaire.

Hey, this is written and directed by this Joss Whedon guy - that name rings a bell for some reason....

I now have cake. It's even pretty good cake, for store bought.

What are people doing this weekend?

I am cleaning*, and then going to dinner on Sunday with friends.

• for all properties of cleaning that include a lot of TV warching.

What are people doing this weekend?

Lots of nuthing (except laundry, grocery shopping..usual "mom" stuff) OR we're going to the antique/old boat show. One of our dock neighbors lives on an old Chris Craft that will be in the show and she wants us to come. I haven't decided if I'm up for it or not. Probably depends on how hot it is, and what the humidity is. But mostly NOTHING! (yay!)

Actually, before I start to clean, I must declutter. Tonight, I'll be going through my closets while my laundry's getting done and my freezer's defrosting, and then tomorrow I make my grocery run and finish weeding out my bookshelves. Sunday morning I'll load up the car with all my Goodwill donations, and then go to the library for the afternoon. Next week is when the actual cleaning will be done, since Mom and the new hubby are flying in next weekend.

I'm looking at the pre-reqs and course work for a Masters in Library and Information Science at UCLA and it's making me dizzy. Could I actually do this???? I mean, before I could even begin I'd have to pass the GRE and the TWE and complete a statistics course and a computer course with a grade of B or better. I'm scared!

GC, one step at a time and you can do it! (although ewww statistics)

BF's cousin is staying overnight so we are entertaining her. She picks up her niece at the airport in the morning and we all meet BF's sister for lunch. Movies tomorrow evening with friends, then brunch with other friends on Sunday and a baby shower on Sunday afternoon. We know toooooo many people.

To carry over my bragging from LJ, did I mention I had dinner with this guy [link] lst night?

YOU HAD DINNER WITH BRIAN KINNEY????? Dude, I'm so jealous. What's he like IRL? He seems kinda shy.
