Warm and sunny -- for the next week the high temps are all supposed to be 98 or above.

Not sure what's up today ... get to start a new book, and it'll probably be Richard Price's Lush Life. Unless it's Indra Sinha's Animal's People. Or Stephen Fry's Moab Is My Washpot. Hee.

Happy birthday, [livejournal.com profile] 667! I hope you're having a great day.

I love Stephen Fry. I read some other things he's written but not Moab is my Washpot.

Stephen Fry is wonderful. I'm looking forward to this one.

Good (*yawn*) morning, dear Nightdog.

*yawn yawn yawn*

Whuh. I don't know what my deal is this morning. Have eaten, had Coffee #1 (I drink low-octane these days, so there will be a Coffee #2 and probably #3 pretty soon) and ... still a zombie.

Never did get a photo of the Royal Blue Pain in the Arse Peacock Dress. No camera batteries. It went over well at the shop, though, and I got paid on the spot, so, YAY.

Gaaaaahhhh I'm so groggy.

*stumbles off for Coffee #2*

EDITED because lack of caffeine ---> html fail.

Maybe you should take a nap. ;-)

Can't nap -- and anyway, I am slooooooowwwwly coming to life over here.

Perking myself up via failblog.org this morning. The laughter's almost as good as fresh coffee.

Morning, Nightdog and Blackmare!!!

Z and I went to the grocery store today, and she was ready for her nap when we got home, so yay! The Mr went on a mechanical pencil buying spree, so I've got a couple new pencils. :) He also bought a lap desk and a mini mouse to go with the Tiny White Laptop, and I'm using it right now and it's really pretty nice.

And now we will have some lunch, if the Mr. ever goes and reheats it.

*is lazy*

Good morning! Or, um, afternoon, now.

Hey! Once I move, you and Nightdog and I will all be in the same time zone.

I'll be living on Central Time; it'll be weird; my whole life has been in Eastern Standard. Heh.

Getting ready, sort of, for an afternoon/evening with two of my old friends. So I'll be leaving here in ... not long. And who knows when I'll get back, except: late.

And then tomorrow I'm off to KENTUCKY for a WHOLE WEEK and you may not see me at all, depending if I have 'net access there, which I may not. I don't know.

I will be in SRS WITHDRAWWWWL by the time I get back to Florida, I can tell you that.

Kentucky?

Oh! I thought I had mentioned this; it's a job with my friend M, painting a bunch of kids'-room murals.

She needed some help if they wanted it on the deadline they set, and the client said OK and bought me a ticket. So I'll be there tomorrow afternoon, and back on the night of the 19th.

I decided I needed the money more than I needed the extra time. Besides, my first out-of-state job ever! And it'll be fun. Except for the probably-not-having-access-to-LJ part.

Yes...and I'll be house sitting again. No not 'that' House...but Mare's house. I'll be feeding kitties and fishies while Mare paints in Kentucky. So, I'll likely not be on here as much this week, either.

I was at her house this morning while she was reading failblog.org and tried to wake up on low-octane coffee. Heh, she managed to fake waking up to go meet with her friends, but she'll be just as zombie-like tomorrow when she tries to pack. LOL!

Moab is awesome, and even more awesome if you can get your hands on the audiobook of him reading it. (hint hint)

There will be a follow-up bio in 2010, so start saving your pennies.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, I got up to find Charlie has Cystitis. Pills should kick in after a couple days, but the vet bill has eaten all my beer money for the b'day.

Sods law innit? Can't hold it against the poor lad.

Stephen Fry is hilarious. I'll have to get that and read it sometime, in the near future. Thanks for mentioning it or I'd have never known it existed.
