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
.
And also, I can literally not remember him working this hard for, like, his actual family. So I am resentful and bitchy.
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.
Oh yuck, aurelia. Not fun at all.
Kitchen is clean, floor is mopped, and I can use my kitchen sink again. I still need to wash a bunch of stuff that was under the sink that got muck on it and I should probably do another wipe down of the bathroom. I may take a walk first.
Ugh, gross.
Just had my mother's family birthday party, which was quite nice! I got the dinner from a restaurant that does take-out grilled chickens, and she got pies for dessert, which was all perfect. Easy, delicious, everyone liked it, etc.
That was a long day. Today would have been my BIL's 67th birthday. So we celebrated the way he would have liked, with a tailgate party and the As beating the Red Sox with a three-run homer in the 7th. 70-something people showed up, and there was So. Much. Food. I came home with a bunch of condiments I will never use, in Costco sizes, and half a case of leftover beer.
It was great, but it was hella hot up in the nosebleed bleacher seats.
Now I am home and still (foolishly) nibbling on leftovers.
So sleepy, but it's only 7 pm, I cannot go to bed yet...
