lamia_primeToday I smell like, as hubby put it, "Of those potpourri candle things". At least "Gomorrah" doesn't have the malicious staying power of tutti-fru...er, I mean "Bordello".
Tonight, at 9:30, I get to have![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
spiderine all to myself for an entire weekend *joy* Such shopping plans we have for Saturday, all fiber-related :)
Saw a variation of this http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060111/ap_on_fe_st/mouse_fire_4 article while waiting for my latte this morning. Just goes to show that you shouldn't be a jerk unneccesarily, or a mouse will burn down your house.
Have to vaccuum. Have been procrastinating on that. But if it weren't for the last minute, nothing would ever get done... This morning, I decided that if I were Empress, when people parked stupid and caused traffice issues, police would immediately contact local radio stations, and the DJ would make an announcement that sounded something like "There's a huge traffic jam in downtown, because a pink sedan, license plate Texas 123ABC, has parked illegally and cars are backed up trying to go in one lane so that a rig can unjam itself". Because the embarassment factor would be a good icing to the ticket-cake. I mention this because there is a spot on the corner of my block that isn't really a parking spot, there's no meter, but there is space, and normally there's not a problem, but like this morning, when an 18-wheeler was stuck trying to make the turn down Prince Street and couldn't because this silver car was parked in the "not really a space" space, there were cops holding up traffic and clearing out lanes so that the rig could back up and try a different route. Everyone was remarkably patient (how unlike New York!), I guess because they could see this huge stuck truck. It was cleared up fairly quickly, as these things go, but still annoying, I'm sure.
My last day of glorious freedom, boss is back next week. Such a conundrum - do we hurry up and wish for the weekend for Spiderness? Or do we revel in the work week and pray that it's long because it's actually pleasant? Hmmm...of course it's moot now :)
My last message on IM before I went home yesterday "Make sure you have a hard-one when I get home"
