Report from inside a recreational shop per CJ. They had a constant stream of business - he does security, so was checking IDs and putting folks on a list to be brought from the lobby back to the sales room, escorting people when their name is called. He was exhausted and broken when he got home after this 12 hour shift. The shop did at least 4 times their average sales.

CJ said there were WAY more out of state customers as well as obviously nooby customers. Poor punkin had to be back at work this morning at 7am after getting home around 11:30 pm last night.

Personally, I stayed away from the park where the Vote for your Lives rally was Thursday night. My only excursion yesterday was to the grocery store. So pretty peaceful in Suzi-world.

I'm glad Matilda arrived home ok, despite the time. It sounds like she was with friends. I'm glad she didn't have to navigate the detour alone.

The only noticeable 420-ing here was the local PD posting on their facebook page that if anyone out there was celebrating, to give them a call and they'd be right over. Heh.

We threw out all of our romaine. We'd already eaten more than half the package without incident though, so I'm pretty sure it wasn't contaminated.

This morning, D had to be at baseball picture day at 8am, which I think is against the Geneva convention or something. Then he had a game at 9, A had swim class at 9 and a game at noon, and then we all went down to the waterfront for our town's MASSIVE Earth Day fair, where we ate delicious food and signed petitions and had ice cream and listened to great music. And now I am tired and want a nap but I still have to do all the regular Saturday errands. BLARGH.

I just listed a recliner and an over the toilet storage shelf on FB marketplace and it looks like the storage shelf will be sold today. No bites on the recliner yet, but fingers crossed. That's two biggish things to get out of my house.

mr. flea just got home from spending the entire day helping his friend pack up to move to Las Vegas. Which is a nice thing for him to have done, but I didn't expect this to take all day. And also, I can literally not remember him working this hard for, like, his actual family. So I am resentful and bitchy.

storage thing gone. $20 to me. And while I was waiting for the pick-up, I cleaned up my garage and got a pallet hauled out to the curb for trash pick up.

Still no bites on the recliner.

So as good as I feel about making rather than spending money today and getting something out of the house and taking a step towards something else leaving, here's the downside.

I'm all anxiety'd up since a stranger was coming here and, ya know, could have been a crazy person who would kill me. So now I am anxiety crashing.

Also also, while yes I got $20, $5 of that is in coins because of course it is. This is how it goes with craiglist/fb marketplace things it seems. She starting saying "now let me see if I have the $$" as she walked up . And I thought oh great, here we go. I've had people do thing before and try to get things for cheaper. Ridiculously, I just discovered that she actually overpaid by $0.55 because she counted a Susan B Anthony as a quarter.

We sold something on Craigslist and the guy showed up and needed to get change to pay the full amount, and I'm sure he was hoping we'd just say, "Oh, never mind that $5." We did not. We waited for him to go get change.

I don't watch Drag Race, mostly because I hate the commentary from the judges. But a friend of mine showed me the speed videos of the various queens applying their makeup, and that is exactly what I wanted.

Also, I obviously need more glitter eyeshadow. Obviously .

I am this way with basketball. Grateful that I get to bitch here!

Also, I obviously need more glitter eyeshadow. Obviously .

I actually bought some makeup about a month ago, and still haven't tried it. The notion of wearing it is still pretty theoretical.

My kitchen sink stopped draining last night. I noticed quickly enough to avoid standing water beyond the drain portion of the sink, but today the plumber started working in the unit above mine and managed to fill my sink with some vile nastiness. Of course he's bailing the nastiness and taking it to the bathroom to flush. I guess my afternoon will be cleaning the kitchen, bathroom, and the path in between instead of getting outside to enjoy the actually seasonally appropriate weather.
