'Harm's Way'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I woke up early but it's raining so I didn't run. Instead I had an egg in a raft and now I'm cleaning house madly while listening to HP & the Deathly Hallows.
Now I have a huge pile of paperwork to file or trash. Do people shred their utility bills, or can I just recycle them? I don't have a shredder, so I would have to take it to my sister's house to do.
I shred, but I have a shredder in my office, so it's fairly convenient. They often have a fair bit of info on them, and I'd be a bit worried about identity theft if I put them in the recycling. Especially as we have open bins that sit out by the road overnight for the recycling truck that comes at gawd awful am.
I shred all my bills, with a crap-ass $15 shredder.
I shred everything.
Man. We got in town yesterday, I crashed out about 10 and woke up at 11 the next morning. So that means I've been up for about two hours, during which time I showered, hung out on the internets, and ate macaroni and cheese my mother-in-law made me. And yet? So tired. I would like to go back to sleep nao thankyew. This afternoon I've got to shoot video for our non-attending VBS, and tomorrow the SO preaches, scary. And we have minimal time together with the family, let alone all the extended friends. But seriously, all I want to do is sleep.
It's Dana's birthday!
Happy Birthday, Dana!!
Sometimes you need the rest, Liese.
I realize my current desire to nap is from the bloody mary I had at brunch, so I'm kind of just waiting it out. It is LOVELY here, so I need to get out of the house, at least to do errands.
Oh yeah! Happy birthday, Dana!!
I went to a couple yard sales, one of which advertised a patio umbrella for sale, but it was too small for my purpose. However, I found a lovely old-fashioned eggbeater, the kind with a crank! Getting out the electric and finding the paddles is such a bother. This can nicely be to hand when I want to mix something. For $3, such a bargain!
Happy birthday, Dana!
I have to onerous-task myself today -- I semi-promised my mom I'd do a semi-regular Suela-esque linkspammy/blogrolly entry on her blog of Random Stuff I've Stumbled On And Loved This Week, and I really need to force myself back into the habit of writing something for God's sake on a vaguely regular basis, so I've tasked myself with doing it today.
Specifically, today before 3:00, because my old parish (the formerly leftie Yippie sign-waving protest-marching getting-arrested-for-rabblerousing one that went down the Opus Dei sewer last year) is in the middle of a meltdown that stinks of Orders From Above, and the surviving parishioners are holding an emergency meeting this afternoon and begging ex-members to come be part of it.
I don't actively hate the current bishop and pastor, because I try not to actively hate anyone if I can avoid it, but there's no way I can stop myself wishing them ill. In abundance.
Happy birthday, Dana!
I went to the farmers market this morning. Got some tomatoes, spinach, sorrel, kale, and garlic scapes. Also got a veggie burger and a strawberry cupcake at the food truck. I'd been planning on a bike ride this afternoon, but it's raining, so I'm staying in.
