We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I actually saw the pictures and thought you could wall in a Harry Potter room if needed.

It's a thought.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Friday we have plans, but Saturday we should be around after 7 or so. I come with a husband instead of kids, but am also low-key.

The weather is looking a little better on Saturday, right? Anyway, I decided to do the museum on Saturday and then drive over to see you guys around 7:00. Maybe we can all meet at one of your places?

Let's do the planning via email. Profile addresses good?

Ooh, fingers crossed, flea!!

I got back from the place I was working, stayed awake for about an hour, thought "I'll just take a tiny nap" and hit snooze or reset the alarm in various increments for the next three hours. OMG. Thank goodness it's almost summer and still light out at 8pm or I might not have gotten up.

I probably do around four loads of laundry per week.

Our wings are not tired.

I love the house flea! So many lovely features. Excited for you!

The 4 of us each had our own laundry days. I did mine on Mondays and would grab the linens and towels randomly when the spirit or available time moved me. I know DH did his on Tuesday, I don't remember when the boys did theirs anymore because they didn't stick to the schedule very well. They just knew my day wasn't an option. My sorting consists of stuff that gets folded and stuff that gets hung up. Almost everything I wear is light.

OMG, I've totally been sucked into a book. Anyone read any Kelly Thompson? I love her first book, The Girl Who Would Be King, and her second book, Storykiller, is looking like it's even better. Thompson writes clever superhero fiction and was strongly influenced by Buffy.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I just did about 5 loads for the week, and didn't include the sheets or the delicates. The sheets alone are at least 2 loads, more if I wash the mattress pads. Ugh.

I sometimes separate by color, but more often I separate by weight and wash cycle (delicates, jeans, cold wash, hot wash, etc.).

Tonight is Open House at the school, but the kids didn't want to go so I am staying home with them and DH is heading up there after work. So much calmer this way! I approve.

Oo, that looks like a fun read, tommyrot

Well, we made an offer. There was already an offer. Bear in mind the house listed at noon today. We'll see which offer they pick by 6pm tomorrow.
