Timelies all!

I feel like I did a bunch yesterday (even if it was dance class, a movie, and hanging with friends) so am being lazy now. Though I should do some laundry.

Yeah, today I'm mostly just flying across the country, although I'll probably do laundry when I get home.

I have vacuumed or smashed so many flies, it is creeping me out. No idea their source, I've cleaned everything out.

Mopping, right. Up next.

Burrell, our local forecast says it's supposed to be sunny today but rain all night into tomorrow morning, for what it's worth.

I can see the clouds already gathering, but it's still mostly blue skies where I am. But there are more gray clouds to the east, where you live. So okay, I can believe that there will be rain tonight somewhere in the LA basin.

So my sister completely messed up our summer camp plans and then backed out of vacation. I'm very annoyed but trying (and so far succeeding) in not getting angry. It'll be fine I'm sure. I just need to readjust my expectations and things tend to work out fine.

IIRC, juliana has something very close to Plummy in her living room (the whole thing, not just one wall) and it looks great.

So now you've gotten strong recommendations from everyone for all three colors for a metric shitton of different reasons. Possibly we are the opposite of helpful.

I had a revelation regarding cleaning out the house: this is not maintenance, this not ongoing drudgery, this is one-and-done, with clear space left behind that makes me happy to look at. Plus I'm finding cool stuff: SCA garb I never got to wear because of stuff and which will be perfect for an event later this year that I wasn't sure I'd have presentable garb for, my Perky Goth t-shirt, books I was thinking I'd need to re-buy, tens of dollars in change (he liked just emptying his pockets and seeing where it landed).

I caught myself looking forward to an hour of digging into the bottom of the closet.

I really hate flying west-to-east. It seems to eat up the whole day. Whereas, flying east to west, sometimes it feels like you land earlier than you took off!

I have done nothing today--well besides download and sort fic, flump on the couch, and plan our afternoon drive to escape heat buildup in the house this afternoon. Temps are supposed to drop ten degrees tomorrow, then all week. That'll be nice.

I haven't seen a fly in 30 minutes...

God, it's stupid hot and muggy out here too.

I have vacuumed or smashed so many flies, it is creeping me out.

Definitely fruit fly season here. I put out a cup with a few inches of vinegar in it, cover it with plastic wrap into which I poke a few holes. That seems to work pretty well although I keep catching myself wondering why it smells like vinegar in here!

I've done a couple of online tasks and walked to feed my friend's cats at the other end of the neighborhood. And got a hibiscus iced tea. That's about it.
