I woke up late, with a headache, decided since my dinner last night consisted of snacking on someone else's fries, I needed a real breakfast, so I drove up to a place in another neighborhood and had a huge breakfast, then up to Home Depot for all the various lightbulbs the house needs, and some gardening stuff. Just got home, and while desperately trying to crack open the package of bulbs, managed to pop it open so one of the huge, $4, mercury filled bulbs dropped on the floor and shattered glass (and mercury?) all over. ARGH!
But I have replaced all the downstairs bulbs. Can't reach one in the hall without a ladder. Still need to do the bathroom, but have put stuff in the wash, taking an internet break. :)

Hubby said the nicest thing to me today. We were discussing female voices, and I commented that sometimes people on the phone at work still think I'm a man. "I know I have a low voice for a woman, but still." Him: "Well, your voice is lower than mine, at least from when I've heard mine recorded. It's almost like Marlene Dietrich's." Me: "Oh, I can live with that!" "And it's not just that, you've got the self-confidence. A lot like Marlene's." "That's one of the nicest things I've ever heard!"
If he's right, I'm very pleased.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

About 45 minutes, Kat.

My neighbor plays the drums. Whoever is playing is actually pretty good, but the houses are so close together and there's no way to shut out the noise.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
ita, you're a soda fiend, right? I was thinking of you today -- there's a soda shop in Pasadena with Izze, Ting, etc. Hundreds of bottles with different flavors. [link]
