Productive day for me today! (relatively speaking, of course). Today I:

  • Cleaned off a huge pile of papers off the table.
  • Took out the trash and recyclables.
  • Cleaned the bathroom.
  • Did dishes.
  • Vacuumed.
  • Went to TJs.

My apartment is clean!¹

¹ Apartment is cleaner, relatively speaking, than its average level of uncleanliness. The apartment cannot be considered “clean” for any absolute measure of cleanliness.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'm sitting in a deliciously warm apartment in running gear, pretty much unable to do any of the things planned today -- running, laundry, harvest my worm compost, pot my herbs...I mean, technically some of those things I could do, but the complaining is WAY easier.

It's after noon and I'm still in my PJs, on the futon. The dog would really like me to get off my ass and escort her out. And my laundry basket would also like me to get off my ass.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, I'm in favor of when in doubt, complain. Kind of like how I can't put away my laundry or go through boxes today because I was going to do that after I weeded, and I can't weed because it's windy. So, you know, the wind is keeping me from laundry.

Yeah! The laundry machines are inside, but I would have to go outside to get to them, and what if my clean clothes get wet? WHAT THEN?!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I can't do laundry because I didn't get to the bank before it closed yesterday. I am trapped under my cat and wallowing. Soon off to the parents', though.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

The weed killer I sprayed in my lawn before we went out of town on Wednesday did NOTHING! Hate. I need to spray more, but it is too windy today. I could go weed some by hand, but I think I will work inside the house instead. The family we went to visit have a very clean uncluttered, un jam-packed house. Makes me want to get rid of lots and lots of stuff.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Dude, CASTLE DRACULA IS FOR SALE. The current owner can't deal with the taxes. Guess how badly I want this, go on, guess. I could even make a quasi-legitimate family claim for it, since we are descended from good ol' Vlad by way of a serving girl.

I would be at least as willing to help you buy Castle Dracula as I am to help Nathan buy Firefly.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I should be doing laundry and/or cleaning, but I think I am going to make apple cake instead.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

El Estupido! I left the lights on for the car and killed the battery. Stupid rainy weather lights on! Stupid car that used to have a chiming alarm that alerted me to the lights being on after I turned off the engine, but the alarm doesn't work anymore. But mostly stupid me.

Oh well, I paid my penance by waiting 45 minutes for the roadside service jump start.
