In-Which I Squee

Because no-one wears a suit like Annie, and just... wow. :-)

I've Got a Life,

Miracle of Love,

I Need You,

Angel,

Why,

Shining Light.

Because Life Immitates Art? Or Something?

Sooo...

Despite the fact (thank goodness) that I'm not a sergeant in anyone's army, I seem to have acquired a gender-fucking girlfriend who (A) does remarkably convincing drag, (B) smirks (gorgeously), (C) grins sheepishly (sort of), (D) has good teeth, (E) can raise one eyebrow at a time, (F) is held together by spit and coffee will power, (G) smokes when she has no other way of getting herself from A to B, as she says, (H) is unusually strong, (I) somewhat nocturnal, (J) has a knack for the sarcasm, and (K) when she has her druthers, does not opt for sleeping in a bed.

And yet I'm the one whose spent years trying not to bite people...

<*snicker*>


Moving right along. ;-)

Spring Cleaning!

So.
I've been doing laundry.

Which is wonderful, except that since I'm washing *all* the bedding (and all the denim and all the towels, and, well, lots of big, space-taking stuff, basically) I don't actually have enough loonies to wash all four loads of laundry. :-P Let alone put any of it through the dryer.

This would be less of a problem if the laundry machines actually took toonies and quarters. But they don't. :-P

And the banks around here aren't open on Saturdays (heaven freaking forfend that a bank be open durning hours I can actually get to it...) so I can't just go and take out ten dollars worth of loonies to handle all of my laundry-doing needs. :-P

<*is annoyed*>


So it's two loads of laundry involving *most* of the sweaters and shirts, all of the socks, one jean skirt, most of the shirts and most of the bedding (alas, not the quilt) and most of the towels.

Good thing I have extra blankets, is all I'm saying.


that said, since my clothes will now be (by and large) clean, I can easily go through them, sort out the DITCH from the KEEP piles and start culling.

My Day

So, I've got everything done but the dishes.
To-which I am adding.

Is anyone surprised?

I *did* however have a lovely long bath (this involved icecream and a Tamora Pierce book), AND a lovely long chat my my sweetie -- I can't imagine what her long-distance bill looks like. We've been having a lot of very casual hour-and-a-half-long chats of late. Basically just spending time together.
It's really nice, actually.
It's easy and fun -- the kind of "chatting while sharing space" thing wherein she's doing her thing and - in-so-far as I can be when tied to a three-foot phone cord - I'm doing my thing (in this case, I was giving myself a tarot reading, which I then went over with her) and we're just chatting together while we're at it.

It's really awesome.


I think I'm going to do more tarot now (yay for attempting to dig into my brain...). And/or make myself some noodle soup for dinner. :-)
