eff you, Gustav
It is a special storm that can completely ruin my weekend before it even comes close to making landfall.
Also, let the price gouging begin. ffs.
Happy Labor Day weekend, folks.
Further adventures of the world’s worst housekeeper
So I took today off to clean house and take care of some other errands related to most excellent plans for the long weekend. Now I’m eating some lunch before I go attack the living room.
I discovered a little while ago that a bottle of bleach leaked on the carpet. Why I had a bottle of bleach sitting on the carpet at all, I don’t even know. It’s just a small spot that could be covered up easily by–I don’t know, a shoe or something, fortunately, but there is a very bright bald spot on the floor.
But the kitchen and bathroom are clean. The living room just needs a dust-straighten-and-vacuum. The bedroom looks like a bomb went off in it, but most of the debris is stuff that can be shoved into the closet.
Also, apparently Pringles now makes a Pretz doppelganger. I have a box of the pizza kind. Om nom nom.
DEX check failed
guess who just mishandled the cat feeder and dumped about 2/3 of a 5-pound payload of cat food all over the freshly mopped and still damp kitchen floor
go on, guess
the worst housekeeper ever is going to bed now
ATTENTION: FIREFOX AT HOME
Did I tell you to upgrade yourself to 3? Well? Did I?
NO I DID NOT
WHY YOU GOT TO DO A THING?
…sigh. Oldbar, Hide Unvisited, bootleg Neopets toolbar get. Successor to Super DragAndGo get. del.icio.us, ForecastFox, Adblock, and StumbleUpon all still seem to work. effffffffff you, FireFox. *shakes fist*
……okay so maybe I have been meaning to upgrade it myself but a little warning would have been nice is all I’m saying
Dang, the Mall of the Americas really DOES have everything
Seriously, though–storeroom or not, how the hell does this go unnoticed long enough for these plants to get this big
$6 get
For future reference: municipal jury duty is pretty excellent. Basically, I got paid $6 cash to watch TV for 45 minutes. Also, the judge was awesome and funny when he came out to tell us to go home. Unfortunately, I got out of there just in time to get to work almost on time! Oh well.
I saw this little guy on the curb outside the courthouse while I was waiting for my ride:
He would have completely fit on a penny.
[100 Candles] updatey
Chapter 9: The Devil You Know is up; an outtake will go up sometime tomorrow, probably.
Oh also:
Chapter 9, it is finished.
It is also 27K words. x_X
(there’s a whole scene that might end up being cut; as much as I love it, it kind of feels PASTEDE ON YAY, which would take it down to… maybe 26K words X_x)
