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

Yay new washer and dryer!

I have to have a repair person in for mine on Wednesday because the washer door won't lock anymore which means it won't run.

Oops. Posted early by mistake

In Today being awesome news: Pretty soon I need to start neatening the house for the cleaning lady visit tomorrow, since tonight I am going to see Pink with Juliana, but for now I am enjoying slounging and ignoring the sounds of Bubba carnage from the other room.

The status is NOT quo.

We spent an ungodly amount of money yesterday replacing mattress, box spring, duvet, and duvet cover. Ouch. Also, sigh.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I am pissed about Downton Abbey, too. I just started watching with Season 3, and I don't think I'll be watching any more of it. This all seems like drama for the sake of drama, with no point. I shouldn't even care that much but I can't stop thinking about it since.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I am going to see Pink with Juliana

!!!!!!! (Watch out for the contact high, Lee).

Ended up renting the washer/dryer from the management company.

tonight I am going to see Pink with Juliana,

That sounds amazing.

I am...just now settling in to try to work. Not to DO work mind you, but to TRY. Ugh. Mondays suck enough, Mondays that are holidays for many other people including my roommate? AWFUL.

Also, anyone have experience with the blue light daylight things that are supposed to help? I was trying to be good about turning it on right when I wake up, and like, reading in bed for a bit, but didn't manage that this weekend or today---if I turn it on now, will that completely screw my sleep schedule, or will it still be good for me, even if it's not first thing?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Beau really liked most of Season 1 of Downton but has become increasingly disaffected. I thought 2 was worse than 3 but the show is over praised IMO. If not for Maggie Smith and my faint hope Judi Dench will show up I would have kicked this show to the curb.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Mondays suck enough, Mondays that are holidays for many other people including my roommate? AWFUL.

We tend to get every dang bank holiday off, but for some reason do not get today off. Which is no big deal, except when I go down the hall to the Ladies', I see all the other offices that are closed and all dark, and then I am sad.

And my co-workers keep talking about Downton Abbey.

Because books.

I backed out of Twitter because I saw Downton grumbling, and I'm still on S1. Which is my fault, but given the horrified reactions, I want to stay unspoiled as long as I can. I need to do a marathon day.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's going to epic, Lee! Have fun!

I am in a slounging mood, I think I overdid it yesterday (working in the evening means not knowing how lazy to be during the day to compensate, alas) but there's stuff I really want to get done. Maybe if I slounge until lunch and then get productive...OTOH, holiday...

Our wings are not tired.

I haven't watched Downton at all. It seemed a good option for a summer marathon event, but now I am thinking maybe not.
