Today was glorious: I got to complain to coworkers that I'd gotten a sunburn. Out of the office, doing actual gardening, no boss. Bliss. I haven't smiled so much in months. Oh beautiful sunshine.
'War Stories'
Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
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.
Sounds heavenly, Juliebird!
Hmm. Need to clean my house and do some running. May see a friend of my sister's who's in town. Want to do some sewing. Party tomorrow night. Not sure what I will actually do. I've been battling a wicked headache all day--tried various painkillers, sudafed, caffeine (which I should've tried earlier), a nap...ugh.
Aw, I'm sorry, meara.
I crashed in the early afternoon and one of my co-workers gave me a red bull. Buzz buzz buzz!
It really was a gorgeous day. Lots if visitors coming out of hibernation. Even a wayward colleague on this day off coming to visit just for the joy of it.
Pretty day here, too. Most of it I was inside and didn't even know how nice it was out, of course, but I just got back from a fantastic run and feel great, in part because the weather was so co-operative.
And the heart rate monitor (now with new battery) appears to work, although the Nike+ website is down (it is always down for what they say is scheduled maintenance lately. WTF, Nike?)
I've got to clean. And also wash my deck furniture in prep for the annual staining and oiling. And hopefully prep at least ONE post for staining and maybe stain. But I might run out of time. But I've got to get moving, the window of time for varnish is small (though it dries fast and unstinky enough after one coat on the sample, so I might be able to work into AC season. It's going to take probably 3 coats.)
MY LIFE IS SO SEXY AND FULL OF TURPENTINE.
Also, my parents are sending emails with pix from Costa Rica. My mom got a massage! I think they're loving it.
btw the songI was thinking of the other day was Of Monsters and Men.
