Just take your time. Push yourself at the end rather than the beginning.
That's good advice! I hadn't thought about that.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am currently waiting for any one of 4 different people to get back to me with information I need to continue their projects.
I suspect that means I will be sitting here not doing anything for an hour before it is time to leave, but I am okay with that.

I don't know if I can do that, msbelle. Flirting is fun. But you would know better than me if it's a bad idea.
I'm pretty excited to not work this weekend.
Woohoo for not working! Boo for it being unusual to not work on the weekend.
I had my takeout (I realized after I picked it up that, hey, it is not really even close to sunset yet. Oh well). It was okay, not great, but convenient, which is about right. got a Zipz in the fridge and a lot of sci-fi TV to watch. I am hoping that if I can really intensely do nothing for a few hours tonight maybe I can be productive tomorrow.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
What -t said.
I watched the first episode of Grey's Anatomy that re-aired this week after the most recent episode, and wow it feels like a completely different show. I think I like the show as it is now better than the show it was then.

I recorded that so I could re-experience it, sj.

The goddaughter's mom is having surgery later tonight to remove gall stones. So far the kiddo and I have watched Lilo and Stitch, gone to the park in the rain (because we're hardcore like that), and are now watching Aladdin.

I cleaned bathrooms at our new house tonight. The bathrooms are FILTHY, people. The soap scum alone. So tiring and depressing. (I am not finished.)
I feel like I have been working my butt off for 2 weeks and there is so much more still to do.
In completely unrelated news, I brought a raw potato home from work because my coworker gave it away because it was starting to sprout.

That sounds most excellent, Jilli. Not the gallstones part.

Yay Lilo & Stitch! Love that movie.
Met with my contractors again to go over what we're looking at for the kitchen. They came up with a great idea to add to storage space by building a closet with shelving in the corner of the kitchen, where I can keep the microwave & sundry big items that won't fit in the cabinets. YAY STORAGE.
Also they said they can refinish the floors in the rest of the house for a minimal add-on cost if they're going to be refinishing the kitchen floor. Yay!
Oh god so much money...
