Praise me, for I have not only finished doing my laundry and put the sheets back on the bed, I most virtuously hung it all out to dry and saved energy.
I have also cleaned a lot of cat poop off the carpet since yesterday, and run the steam cleaner too. Joy. Cranky old Chloe is just not all that happy about having a new kitten around, so she lets us know it with her little editorial comments. I've discovered an awesome new carpet-cleaning tool: An old spoon I used to use in the garden. White-fonted for the squeamish: That spoon scrapes up the mess neatly, without schmearing any into the carpet like paper towels do. Rawk!
I've printed out all my reservation information, made sure I have all pertinent phone numbers, gotten a ride to the airport. Now all I have to do is pack everything I might possibly want for the next two weeks.
So, Not!Emily is on vacation with his girlfriend and her family. Thanks for telling us!
I"m going to download tim's podcast tonight for listening on the drive to wrok tomorrow
All Praise the Magnificent Queen Katerina Bee! She of the laundry-finishing and poop-scooping! All Hail!!!!
Katie, do you have my cell number? And do you have a cell phone? If so, I don't have the number.
I'll be swapping my dark brown box of haircolor for light brown today. Hoping I won't be stuck standing and staring at all of the different color choices for an hour, like yesterday.
There are currently two teenage girls in front of my apartment. One has two cups of lemonade in her hands and the other has two cups of iced tea in her hand, and they are stopping each car that passes by and trying to sell them. They have no stand set up as far as I can tell.
Reason eleventy berjillion why I love where I work and live:
Brief excerpt from a note dictated by one of my doctors on a recently admitted infant:
The baby was born to an intact family with two mothers, who have been very involved throughout the baby’s short hospital course.
Two loving parents, a family. So simple.
I need to get on to getting the boy a birthday present, and it's the first one, so it has to be good. I need help, please thankyou. His greatest loves in life, in descending order, are: the Red Sox, comics (especially anything Wolverine or Deadpool), archaeology, maps, travelling, ferrets, t-shirts. I'm pretty sure there's some other stuff, but that's the most gift-able, methinks. SO, any ideas?
I have to admit, the first thing that came to mind was "mummified ferret" but that's no so helpful.
Y'all are where? London-ish? so Sox tickets are out. What's your price range, Jars?
Cereal: 9500 hits on Google for mummified ferret, but looks like no m-fer mummies have ever been found. Dammit.
