I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I went out and about in sandals today, although not shorts. It was nice to feel air on my toes.

I also got an estimate on refinishing my bedroom set (the set I refinished myself two years ago, badly). I'm not sure I'm actually $1600 worth of displeased with my refinishing job. Time to check out other bids, I guess.

I saw somebody wearing flipflops at the grocery store yesterday and it was the first time this year I didn't think they were being premature and/or insane.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

ugh Cash. It's not warm here yet, but it is at least sunny. A nice surprise since we were forecast for rain.

YAY an impromptu playdate for mac with another friend. I am finishing a knitting project and am going to try to patch up some of mac's pants.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

It is warm here, which I am sure you wanted to know.

I managed to reschedule a hair appt for today, so I got that done.

Got a plastic expansion file for all the house stuff. Piles and piles of paper. Now I'm going to give myself a manicure and stare balefully at my closets and shelves and boxes, magically willing them to sort and pack themselves. And then I'll dye my hair. And tomorrow I will clean and grocery shop and stare balefully some more.

I seem to have spent the last few hours on a cleaning rampage.

Did you blackout and come to in a clean apartment?

Punishingly Intricate

Going back a ways, I had a year in Shelton Hall, too. I forget whether it was the fourth or fifth floor, lisa -- was your floor the one with the Eugene O'Neill suite?

Yes! 4th floor! That's funny. When were you there??

Riding turned out to be just fine. Well, hard but not because of the rain. A little scarier than normal but it was a route I know well. It was drizzly, though, not pouring. Fun!

I haven't looked in my middle room, where the leak is, yet though. Hope I still have some ceiling in there.

I think I'll take a little nap now! I've resigned myself to getting nothing much done today!

Looks like date 2 will be lunch next week.

I missed date 1 but yippee!

Yay for date #2, msbelle!!

Yay for clean apartment, shrift!!

I've had a remarkably productive day myself. After I got off work at B&N, I headed over to Sports Authority and picked up some swim goggles and nose plug, then went and got my hair cut so I can see while I swim, then I went to the pool and signed up for the year ($69 annual fee--not bad!) where I was recognized by the girl signing me up. She remembered me from when I worked out at the fitness center there over a year ago.

Now, all I have to do this evening is my dishes, my laundry, and then shave my legs so I can go swimming tomorrow morning--yay, swimming!
