I went to bed late. And yet? Still up at seven thirty on a Sunday.
Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In general, I'm not as good at sleeping in as I used to be, but I am still terrible at going to bed early on the weekends! At least I had sort of gotten enough sleep by the time my mother came down to shower at 8.
And I feel some pressure to do my laundry while my parents are at church, which is actually so good for me. I can put off doing laundry forever.

I technically slept in, though I wouldn't mind morning drowsing. But I'm up and dressed to go to the pool. As soon as I finish my coffee. This should be an interesting swim; a muscle/tendon across my collarbone is protesting a bit. And morning swims tend to be either just weird or complete shitshows. So then...
And then I shall make a holy mess of my house. And then clean it up. And contemplate hiring a professional duster.

I slept in until 6:30! Obviously I love morning swims, but my pool doesn't open until 11:00.
Saturday nights have been traditionally quiet.
I miss ita too. I check in by text every so often to make sure she is okay.

Good. I'm glad you're in touch with her.

Glad you check in, Kat.
My pool opens at 9 on Sundays. They close at 1 today to paint, which is why I'm going early. Normally I'm part of the evening closing crew on weekends.
I should've taken a picture of my hair this morning. Pumpkin didn't come to bed before I fell asleep, but clearly she did later. A good half of it was valiantly trying to remain vertical with kinks and twists I did not put there.

I'm on the miss-ita train too.
Normally I don't approve of jillifonticide, but in the intersection of poisonous and little kids with curiosity, I'd go for the terminate-with-prejudice option myself.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Glad to hear about text check-ins, Kat.
I would probably kill a black widow in the garage, but I would feel bad about it. If I have any (and I probably do) they politely stay out of sight, so I can pretend they aren't there.
Mmm, coffee.

I leave all the beneficial jillifonts and relocate the poisonous or unsettlingly large ones. I have taught countless girls the jar trick for moving bugs.
