Oh, yeah. Today just took another nose dive. If this happens again (vet sent something, roommate now weeping), I'm committing obstruction of correspondence.
I like the ruffles.

Happy birthday, shrift!
I am another person who wants gold stars for doing annoying chores that I have to do anyway. But hey! In the spirit of unofficial onerous task day: cleared out the fridge, did dishes, and took down the Christmas tree. Tomorrow will be about emailing people at the vendor agency.

Our wings are not tired.
I ate party leftovers (smoked salmon, Jarlsburg, baguette) and watched 4 episodes of Arrested Development. It's been literally years since I was this lazy. It's weird. Does anyone else have to force themselves into laze?

Art Crawl!!!
Spaniels: bred to flush upland game. Unless they are water spaniels - in which case you expect them to retrieve water fowl.
Even Cockers were originally bred to hunt (and some still do.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I paid my bills for the coming week and took the cat to the vet and was totally planning on joining y'all's productivity after lunch, but I fell asleep instead. I'm pleased the productivity continued while I slept, I think.
Eta: Ugh, shrift. I wish today was treating you better.

Punishingly Intricate
My onerousish tasks done today were: checked and responded to work email all day even though we were off, wrote thank you cards (although I am Very grateful to have thank you cards to write!), put laundry away, and went to yoga class of teacher I am afraid of. She's a good teacher but very hard!
Then I came home and ate some corn chowder made by Bob! That was not onerous at all.

The words LOOK like English...
Jilli! Do you know Martha Rotten's jewelry? There's a small sample of stuff up here: [link] She's a FoaF, and I've seen her work in person - it's pretty awesome. She incorporates lots of bird and human skull shapes into her work.
Welll, poop, I've hit a snag on 2) Read and summarize some stuff for work, then forward it on - my computer doesn't seem to want to open pdfs. Hrmph. I guess I'll move on to flex stuff.

Go, smonster!
I've unboxed the biggest part of Matilda's bed, brushed off all the styrofoam bits, put it into neat piles, and vacuumed up the bits. And took all the boxing down to recycling.
And the pie's done.
It sort of bubbled over a bit.

Did you guys get a mattress, yet, Hec?

Nope, we're shopping for one right now.
