Too much to be easily manageable, not too much to be delicious. Once it isn't piping hot anymore, that problem disappeared.

Survived the Open House, but tomorrow morning is going to suck. How can it be Monday tomorrow when I was in school today? Ah well.

I was very productive this afternoon once I got home, though. There has been a mountain of clothing and camping gear and who knows what else piled in a corner of the bedroom for months and months, and I decided to reclaim the room tonight. I've done a ton of laundry, organized, sorted, and put stuff away; the bedroom looks like a bedroom again! I also washed all the sheets and towels yesterday and remade both beds, so I count this weekend a win.

Hooray for bedroom reclamation! My suitcase was so tired of waiting for me to put it back in the garage after my vacation (in August!) that it went off to Hawaii without me.

I unpacked my books today. And bought two pairs of shoes. And stuff at Target. And books. And I still feel bored and unaccomplished. Ridiculous!!

But I got a cute email from one girl. Though I still don't know what she LOOKS like, so it could fizzle quickly. And haven't heard from the one who canceled for today, so maybe he's just a jackass.

Harumph.

maybe he's just a jackass

he must be if he passed on a date with you, meara.

Go KT! Wish some of that cleaning energy would rub off on me.

Never too much cheese, tho at scalding hot temps, I did once curse the cheese even tho it was my fault for burning my mouth. I felt very bad and apologized by eating the whole pizza. Ick on clams as a topping.

I'm trying to do a lil cat nap thing. In 3 hours we leave for the airport. Not tired, so plan not working. Hopefully tiredom won't set in until we are on the plane. Not looking forward to 90 min drive down @ 4am.

OK, question: is there a good way to say to someone you've exchanged like, three emails with "gosh, your picture is very pretty but you are SO NOT MY TYPE"?

Cause this girl emailed me, and was a little weird anyway, and then I was like "Um, and you mention you're girly?" and she was like "Well, only on the outside, I'm very butch on the inside (blah blah fix cars)" and linked to a picture...where she's very pretty, very girly, and has long blonde hair.

Which is gorgeous. But so doesn't do it for me. I'm like "Uhhhhh...see, in the ad I said I was looking for someone butch or FTM? I, um, meant it?"

Flattery is sometimes the best policy. Mention how beautiful she is and that her interest is flattering, but that you think you two may not be the best match.

meara, is it worth meeting her first?

Yeah. I guess it's easier that she really is very pretty, and just not my type. As opposed to someone who is, in theory, my type, and just not cute! :)

(EDIT: I wrote and explained that she's very pretty but not my romantic type, and if she's looking for friends I need those too, so we'll see. Definitely no spark of "ooooh" though, for me. And pretty damn rare I feel that about any femmey girls)

Also, WTF are the people upstairs playing? It's very...bass-filled. And annoying. This place isn't toooo bad on the sound transmission, but the vibrations come through really easily (oddly, I hear the vibrations of their alarm clock in the morning, but no sound. Luckily, it's usually right around when mine is going off)
