Why can I not find the one fucking receipt I need?

It's run off with my gift certificate.

Yay marathoners, and saras neighbors.

Perkins, you're going to love having a housecleaner! I've scaled mine back to ad hoc, usually just before guests come. Mostly so that I don't have to mop all of my hardwood floors myself!

Hardwood floors is totally why I'm contemplatin one! My roomie and I are mostly doing ok keeping the kitchen and living room under control, but neither of us is deep cleaning, just doing dishes and picking stuff up.

Oh, and my day has been spent at a gay dance convention, doing west coast swing, waltz, and two-step classes, and I'm going to the ball tonight!

The hardwood is the easy part for me. It's the dusting and the clutter that kill me. I might pay someone for the dusting after open window season. Clutter is my own.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

My sister has always downplayed any geeky inclinations she's ever had, and mocking mine my entire life. I just got off the phone with her after listening to her talk about how she was arguing with her husband over the impossibility of Superman being able to turn back time by flying around the world (in the first Christopher Reeve movie), and then having her tell me how she and her hub discuss whether Supes could have sex without being too, um, vigorous in the act. I told her how much I love that she married a geek, because it brought out all those latent geeky tendencies in her! She told him that I called him a geek, and I made her point out to him that I was being complimentary.

Oh, and she's hoping to hear back on that job interview early next week! They've already done the background check and are expiditing the hiring process. It's doing IT for the Venetian in Vegas, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for her!

See? And I don't have much clutter (what clutter I do have is dealt with before the cleaners come), and I loathe mopping.

I used to have them come 2x a month, then 1x a month, and I just didn't have enough for them to clean. So now I call if I am having houseguests.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Yay, new thread!

We went to the Ren Faire today. Saw some fun shows/performers, and I bought two pairs of hair sticks. Only downside was the heavy smoke at the White Hart Tavern. I'm surprised I don't reek of smoke.

But this isn't really a hip-hop version. It's just a version.

Some hip-hop rhythms in the background, and a break towards the beginning with about 20 seconds of pure hip-hop, and few hip-hop riffs here and there.

Fuck yeah! Giants win. Timmy the Freak beats Doc Halladay.

Stole one on the road. And I like Sanchez for Game 2.
