I like the sound of veggie guy as an amusing character. Thankfully my cat is currently sleeping in the dirty laundry. But there is also a basket of clean that's occasionally being refurred by her too.

I tried to recycle ALL the things but it was hot and my thighs starting chafing from sweat so the last batch goes out tomorrow. Instead cool shower and that slidey goo. Better slothful than heat blistered.

It was a shirt I'd tossed on the chair to put on in the morning. Normally, everything is hanging or in drawers. Devi especially loves my dirty laundry. I toss it on the closet floor, and invariably if I leave the door open, that's where I find her.

Loki has a shoe fetish, Devi has a dirty laundry one, Mister Kitty likes the clean stuff.

Kittenish goes for either freshly clean or dirty. It has to smell like dryer sheets, bleach, or whatever detergent or it has to smell like me. Clean but old gets no interest at all. Cats is weird.

Whew! Home. I did swim and it was totally awesome. There were eleventy billion people there, but it was okay. Very refreshing. (Oh, sara, how long is a lap? Or like, approximately how many strokes? I know it varies. I did all backstroke `cause I`m scared of swimming properly. But I had no way of figuring how far I was going.) Then I got home and made but did not eat dinner and got ready to shower but did not shower, because I was on the phone chatting with my folks. But that was nice instead and no one physically recoiled from me at church, so I must not have been too lakey. And our buddy did a good job guest preaching.
 
But I`m home and eating now. I made panzanella caprese to redeem a botched loaf of bread but the fresh mozzarella went all wonky. So the whole thing is kinda hinky. But it`s still pretty good.

Liese, my one lap is 50 yds (pool is 25 yds, so up and back.) So 9 laps is a quarter mile. Some places are fancy and have 50 yd pools. I wish. I have no idea on the strokes, though.

Hmm. I`ll have to figure it out. If the families sunbathing were baffled by me going back and forth by myself, they`ll really love me out there with my giant tape measure. It was hard to guage where I was. There`s a good swim out to a floating dock thingy. If I figure out how far that is, I could use it to count.

Mmmmm, panzanella caprese. I should totally make some of that up soon.

Okay, I'm all for good daddies, but I am getting a little tired of the motif of men with babies on tv.

Sorry for the random, I am watching Haven right now.

Hi, all! Wow, I haven't tipsy-posted in a while.

My party was fun, nice and low-key but good. Cute babies for a couple of hours, then they conked out and we had some more drinks.

It wasn't godawful hot out, my friend made us a killer homemade strawberry cake, and I even cleaned up before I came up here!

D is "asleep." He drank whiskey and went to bed, skinny dear.

OOh, i got this gorgeous cobalt polished geode bookends. They are soooo pretty. Is there blue agate?

Ooops, had two dinner tonight. First, chicken and waffles. and then somehow we ended up at a tapas bar, that is a restaurant open by our favorite chef and sommelier
