Glad you pushed through and went to knitting club, askye. I need to get back into knitting, maybe. My roommate is awesome - she's currently knitting an intarsia bag in Gryffindor colors, including the logo! She's also knitted octopus armwarmers and socks and a cupcake baby hat, all since she moved in.

Speaking of... she asked for privacy tonight via text - I thought it was a general "can't deal with peoples" introvert thing, but it turns out today is some kind of Very Not Good anniversary for her. So I"m thinking that's why she's been in an epically shitty mood for the last few days.

sj! I failed at going to yoga! And may fail again tomorrow, since I'm making dinner and having drinks with StW. But I will keep trying. Did you get to the gym?

Hi Mom,

Thanks for visiting. Um. Please close the bathroom door when using it.

Thanks!

:: your son ::

(she leaves tomorrow. hopefully.)

I did not. I am sore from yesterday and from all the rain today, so instead I went out and did needed errands. I figured it's one step up from staying home and doing nothing. I don't think I'll get there tomorrow because Mom is going to be here and we have lunch plans with a friend. My goal is to get back Friday and maybe Saturday.

Please close the bathroom door when using it.

EEEP! One of my roommates and I didn't, but we'd generally yell "Peeing with the door open!" and the toilet was mostly blocked by the sink, anyway. Also, no one's mother was involved!

Well, you also don't want to overdo it right off and hurt yourself and/or burn out. Sounds like a good decision. If I don't make it tomorrow, then Friday and Sunday. I've put the classes on my calendar for this week.

True. I need to get myself on some sort of regular schedule though and soon.

That's a good step!

omnis, if it makes you feel any better, my mom is the same way. Not when Tom's around thank god, because-blergh.

Man, I'm wiped. work is bananas, due to fired person being fired and 8 gazillion things happening at once. And trying to do it all in a mildew stank office. I almost threw up from the stench this morning.

Also, doing the twice daily hydrotherapy on Taz is heartbreaking because he clearly hates it but is just such a good boy and only whimpers and squirms.

Also also- my social-o-meter is maxed out. That is all!

In non-whining news, sorry about slumlord confirmation, smonster. And everyone here is very pretty.

Nora, would that stuff that people talked about help your office? I think damprid or something like that?

will try to Nilly that tomorrow, thanks javachik. I'd forgotten that discussion.

Ew, gross mildew smell!

I lived alone for 12 years. I never close the bathroom door when I'm peeing in front of close girlfriends, but then again, neither do most of them. Of course, we have also have almost 20 years of peeing en masse in bar bathrooms, stripping drunk friends from vomit-spwen clothing and skinny dipping and naked hottubbing, so it ain't no thing.

I close the door at my parent's house, but my mom and sister pee in front of me. Dad, never. Opposite-sex parent squick. I still haven't recovered from seeing my dad's privates while he was recovering from a triple bypass (I know, I know, but I was like ARGH! DAD BALLS! MY EYES!

I am a private pooper, though. I don't even like to admit that I poop.
