Natter 74: Ready or Not
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Though that would require clothes other than the Marvel pajamas I'm currently wearing.
Nonsense!
But yeah, enjoy the warm weather before the sun goes down. Especially because tomorrow is supposed to be still warm, but rainy. And then on Tuesday the high is 58 with heavy rain, followed by a high of 33 on Wednesday with snow.
I am already bracing for the migraine.
I got a haircut! And since the sun is out, I'm going to hike around Golden Gate Park.
I'm so California that 63 is not warm in my book. It's not cold but it's not warm either. Also FTR it is 63 right now in my neighborhood too.
I am trying a new recipe, something called Mississippi roast that is starting to trend online, according to articles online. Hmmm. But hey, looks tasty and is super easy and my family has been asking for more beef.
Holy crap! Woke up to discover a friend of mine from high school has been named VP of Development and Production for Discovery's Science Channel: [link]
Very cool, Matt!
Everyone I talked to today who's been at work all day (in the nursing home, my massage therapist) was like, Is it lovely outside?? It is nice and sunny, but not that warm. Comfortable in your coat.
I've got lots of boxes of stuff for the thrift store that need to go out to my car. However, we've had three inches of snow so far and it's still snowing. So I'm stymied by weather, because clearing out this stuff hard enough emotionally without having to trudge through the snow uphill both ways (there's a slope up to the driveway, then climbing the steps back to the porch and the front door).
So, soon I'll do the cat box and the dishes. Yay. (I'm sick of the cold and the snow. It's the end of January, I'm allowed to be sick of it now)
Thanks for the link to vacuum reviews! Helpful. My sister says canister vac, but I'm unconvinced.
I've gotten a bit done today. Some books put away, dusting and floor cleaning, some stuff put aside for sale/donation. Not bad. Gonna grab some food and maybe do some more later unless I fall asleep in front of the hypno-box.
I am very annoyed at someone and there's not a thing I can say to them or do about it, nor can I remove them from my life without losing someone I love. It's lucky they don't live near me; the mute button is all that saves me.
Zen, I think you're right on the bag. I prefer a bag, and I don't even have asthma! The last think you want to do is put the any of the dust back in the air.
I'm currently watching Kim Fields and Jason Bateman as teen stars on a ridiculous 80s game show. So that's enjoyable.
It got up to the 50s here today, which was warm enough for sandals and thus a pedicure. So I met a friend for lunch and pedies.
Now I'm watching a 2000 version of Loves Labours Lost. It's a Brannagh production set in 1939, with early and mid-20th century musical numbers sprinkled throughout. I don't know that it works, exactly, but it's sort of a fun mess.
Ridiculous thing on my mind lately: Is my grandfather's old flight suit still around, so I can use it for a Poe Dameron costume? I have not yet actually looked for it (probably in the attic).
