Wednesday night
Apr. 24th, 2002 11:39 pmI seem to be flirting with heartburn, which is uncool. I never used to get that. Sucky. I must be getting old.
Today has been.. busy. After lunch, I ended up working on the little room somehow. I didn't actually mean to. I meant to go in and get wrapping paper materials, for birthday presents and to shipping-proof the wedding present. I do hope it makes it intact. Anyway, I scratched my leg on a picture frame and then I stepped on an extension cord heap, which is unpleasant with bare feet. So I decided to arrange a walking path into and out of the room--we haven't actually been able to close the door for months. Anyway, I ended up doing much better than I had expected. Things are bagged, boxed, stacked, and organized much better now. I moved that stupid car jack that's always been painfully in the way to under the bed, and put the ironing board under the couch. We hardly use it anyway, and when I want to iron something, I usually get a towel down and do it on the washing machine. So no big loss, and much more space. I also vacuumed everything but the computer room, which I'll tackle tomorrow. Magnus came home in the middle of that project and it got delayed.
Anyway. I worked on the mandolin site, and it's really nearly done. Touch-ups and arranging for a guestbook, stuff like that.. all that's left. Read some, straightened up the kitchen but didn't do dishes. Spilled my lunch all over the kitchen floor.. frozen stir fry. I was pretty lucky, though. I'd lifted it up to read the bottom cause I was pretty sure it was done cooking but needed to check, and I dropped it, so it landed on my nose, bounced off and hit the floor. What was lucky was that it was the bottom that hit me, or I'd have been burned and have burning sauce in my eyes. Was a bitch to clean up. Also did all the laundry.
Unfortunately, now I'm sleepy. So no more tonight.
