Fuck. I screwed something up and have to go in to the office. No big deal, I just don't wanna.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's a weekend miracle -- I actually have laundry in already!
Also, there was a little bit of drama in the deli when this guy came in with a teenager saying he needed Benadryl ASAP because the kid was having an allergic reaction. I'm going to believe that the deli lady didn't understand what the guy was saying because she kept talking to me. (She's an older Korean lady, and I'm guessing "allergic reaction" isn't in her day-to-day English vocabulary. Also, people often come in slightly agitated, because they "need" their coffee or beer or whatever. @@) I was like, get him the Benadryl! So they did, and I guess it was OK.

This morning I realized that the last time I was in NY was two years ago this weekend.
That was TWO YEARS ago?
Dang

This is why I shudder when anyone talks about '70s-inspired fashion. I remember the '70s and they were Not Pretty.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
G's cousin and his wife are coming over to see the house and the kittens this evening, so we need to do a quick cleanup.
The rest of the weekend will be pretty quiet, with a few errands to be done. Like getting a new brake light for my car. Whee.

My accomplishments for today so far include a) making an icon and b) eating last night's leftover bread.
I definitely need to get more ambitious.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
I've done nothing today except make and eat breakfast.
But last night we got a coat of shellac down on the living room floor, and it looks spiffy. Of course, now I'm sore from crawling around on the floor with a paintbrush for 2 hours, so I'm going to take a hot bath to loosen stuff up, and then do yoga. Seriously, I'm so sore right now that I don't want to do yoga without sitting in a hot bath first.
That's a just sad. Shellacking the floor should NOT make me this sore.
After yoga, throw in laundry and work on freelance stuff. After that, family birthday party.
Official moving-in date: t minus 3 weeks and counting....
