BT's posts are renewing my faith in mankind. Really.

Did I mention before how I'm jealous of Sara's new home and community? Sounds so nice!! (I just learned that apparently It of VH1 reality show "fame" is from my neighborhood.....)

I have been to the laundromat, came back for a quick lunch of strawberry shortcake and am not off again to purchase bras (because the only one put through the washers is currently trying to kill me) and garden clippers. Among other things.

It is GORGEOUS outside.

I have run my errands and feel pretty good!

Now I have to switch the switches. I've done tiny bits of electrical before, but never in my own home.

I took a DVD that was due last Thursday back to my fave Video store. Instead of dropping it in the slot, I went in to pay the overdue charges, and like every time I try to return in person and pay, they tell me, "There are no fines on this item." Sweet!

It is GORGEOUS outside.

Seriously. I have laundry in, and it's almost all of my dirty clothes! I often don't do all of it, which is why I always have to do it... This time, I just didn't have enough light colored/cold water stuff for a load, but other than that, it's all in.

Yeah, I have to inform you, there's a pretty rigid gender demarcation between laying the eggs and poisoning the omelettes.

She lays eggs. He poisons them. They fight crime.

Wait, *I* have to lay the eggs?!?

Clearly I didn't read the fine print.

I guess I don't get out much; I don't think I've ever seen anything she's been in.

First thing I ever saw her in was as Kevin Constner's wife in The Untouchables.

ION, I am in a gigantic food coma at the moment. Brunch with my in-laws at their country club and copious amounts of shrimp and roast beef were consumed along with an interesting Eggs Benedict (biscuit instead of English muffin for the base-- tasty, but too fragile).

The dessert buffet was obscene. Chocolate fountains and all sorts of tasty cakes and pies and petit fours. I tried a tuxedo brownie cheesecake that was, unbelievably, too sweet. (Let's put it this way-- the coconut cream pie seemed almost bitter afterwards.)

But it was all good and a good time was had by all.

We may go to a movie later, but right now, coma nap is winning out.

I was going to say it's beautiful here too, but I just went upstairs and it's raining! Which sucks on the one hand, but OTOH, I really need to mow the lawn and I really didn't want to, so I am saved for the rest of the day.

Also, just replaced the switch in my bedroom. And it works without sparks or pops. I am so handy!

Go you, Sue!
