I made a delicious salad with cucumbers, onions, red and yellow bell peppers, green beans, cherry tomatoes, garlic, fresh basil, olive oil, and vinegar. Later, I'm going to make a green curry that I hope will burn my face off.
But first, I will nap now that I've finished watching the Wimbledon Women's Final.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I just made a mess and pissed off a nice nurse. But I was waiting for them to discharge me for so long that the nausea came back, and they weren't going to give me more of those meds. Those are at home. Where the Champeenship Ladies Final Wimbledon also is.
I just didn't expect all that blood everywhere. Now the nice lady probably hates me, but I'd been waiting to go home over an hour.
Dana, why would your husband turn off a taping VCR? Isn't that when you leave them alone the most?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
You would think so. I guess he didn't realize it was taping? Fortunately, I have a torrent downloading, but it's going to take forever. The tape caught up to 2-2 in the second set, and I am having to avoid all news outlets in an attempt to not be spoiled.
I did download the Federer-Haas semi, though, and am watching that.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Poor ita. Probably not anything she hasn't seen before.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
ita, mygod, are you throwing up blood? Are they letting you go anyway? At the very least you should get to watch your tennis.
They delivered our w/d today, woo! I should be washing, with the right in my kitchen-ness of it, but nah, lazy.
There are things in boxes that I want out of boxes, but that means I have to go out to the shop and open random boxes till I find just those things I want. H is not going to be happy with opened-but-not-unpacked boxes strewn around, rather than the neatly-stacked-for-long(ish)-term storage boxes.
Thing is, neatly stacked for long(ish)term storage is likely to completely disappear off his radar, becoming no longer relevant, and that would not make me happy.
I could unpack the four boxes I have left in my closet. But the particular things I want aren't in *those* boxes.
...or I could catch up on Harper's Island before the finale tonight.
I think I'll have a peach and some cherries and think about it. Oooh, if I had the ice cream maker unpacked I could make peach ice cream! It's...in a box, somewhere.

...or I could catch up on Harper's Island before the finale tonight.
I thought that it's not being broadcast until next Saturday, July 11th.

Because books.
Yeah, it's a rerun tonight, Bev. Probably due to it being the Fourth.
ita, what blood?! That was sort of startling to read.

No, but rude. I feel bad about being rude.
Whoops! That did read like I puked blood--no, I don't need that sympathy. Retching only. The blood was from the IV I removed from my foot. The IV I'd been waiting over an hour for them to remove so I could come home and take my meds and stop gagging.

Oh, ita. I'm so sorry.
I am filled with gronk. Which needs to stop, because I really should work on a short story that is due in, oh, three days. Eeek!
I went to a Zombie Walk last night, and stayed to watch Shaun of the Dead at the outdoor movies. It was a lot of fun! But why is it that even when I'm trying to look like a menacing, shambling mess, the comment I get from passers-by is "Ohh, cute!"?
