Great, now I want lemon bars. Or, no, watching GoT, so lemon cakes.

Maybe one of those lemon/honey/gin cocktails with fizzy water added. That sounds pretty good. Probably a tonic for ... something.

After I'm done sitting down for a while.

Oh, no, Ginger! Argh, injuries from stepping on sharp things are so painful, not to mention the needing a shot aspect. I'd send you back in time with a note to not go outside if I could.

Also, I don't have any lemons.

Oh, ugh, Ginger. Yeah, better safe than sorry, but tomorrow is soon enough.

Wine has been consumed and I'm feeling nice and mellow. I'ma finish the fic I'm reading and then go retire to my bed for a little Bejeweled before final lights out.

I wish I could send you a lemon cocktail through the internets, Ginger! I mean, technically those services exist but it wouldn't get to you tonight when you need it most.

I have been adulting this weekend also. I culled a ton of shoes, some in the trash but most donated. I made two trips to donate clothing, although I still need to make one more trip next weekend. I've thrown away two garbage bags of stuff.

I've done laundry and the dishes and gotten groceries. I made a giant pot of soup tonight and have so much soup in the refrigerator. I walked about 21 miles total this weekend. While at a friend's watching hockey yesterday, I even went out on her weird narrow metal balcony to wash her windows because she was too freaked out to do it herself.

I need to cull. Hell, I have 3 boxes of clothes from 5 years ago I still haven't donated. And not because of some attachment, just not gotten to it. I need to do a weekender clothes cull/transition to sloppy projects clothes. And get new un-holey respectable casual tops.

Which is hard because I hit 3 places this morning and I don't see anything I like. I'd like to branch out from plain scoop neck tshirts , but might not be an option. Hell, colors right now, even that's not much of an option...

I will get a bulk trash pickup scheduled for all the broken fans, suckless vacuums and assorted other crap that at least I've migrated to the garage. Not next month, unless I can get one of my neighbors to haul it out-I won't be here, whee!

I can pick up and take to the dump for you! Seeing as I'm retired at the moment.

Nah, you don't have to haul, I just need to request a pickup and put it all out back. I think. Little vague on details.

You totally should work your errand-fu as you wish while you're retired. You're an awesome info consigliere, totally always thought you should parlay that into income.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Thanks, all. I really appreciate hearing from everybody. I made the pitch! Now I have to forget about it and not go crazy until/if I hear from them.

Sheesh, Ginger.

Polgara invited me and Burrell to a clothing exchange thing. It was good to get rid of stuff (yay!) and I picked up an entire new set of clothes in shades of black, white and grey mostly. I am so stinking predictable.
