A mechanical pencil holding my hair back.
A lot of phone books to deal with..(Yaargh.)
A Hotmail account that's bugging the shit out of me. (sooooo....sloooooowwww...)
A stomach full of watermelon and mint tea.
A lot of fun shopping to do later.
A Bronze earclip back in my right pointy ear.
(I missed it.)
A nice, smooth rock to hold.
A Leonora Carrington picture in miniature hanging on my wall in front of me.
A steadily blinking Queen Amidala Action figure.
A serious spring roll jones.

Any of those would be an improvement on this hair cut. Yikes. You should have seen the look on Kevin's face when I answered the door last night!

Oh dear, I'm working from home today, and having my laptop on the dining room table, and well, I'm kind of a clutter bug . . . .

OK, quitting with the excuses, but here's what I have, and it's a sad picture:

- several boring books about libraries, reference work, and supervision in libraries
- a dirty plate
- a dirty wine glass (from last night, I swear!!)
- bottled water
- a cup of Darjeeling tea (YUM!)
- my red thread bracelet
- Flonase
- Gaviscon
- several unmatched shoes (after taking these away from the dog and putting them where she couldn't get them)
- the remote to the CD player
- my Bad Hair Day cap
- a flyer from Bed, Bath, and Beyond
- a promotional Target beach ball, not inflated
- make-up case, unused today

This is way too sad. I'm gonna have to take a break just to do some straightening up.

Oh, I forgot one

Oh ya, the gassy dog is just DELIGHTFUL, LOL!! It's a good thing I love her!!!

Thankfully she's now gone into the living room. Give me a bit of a break. I swear, maybe I should rent her out to the army for biological warfare or some such thing.

You have my sympathies!

One of the reasons my hair is now long is that I no longer suffer from Bad Haircuts. Although a bigger reason is that I don't have to spend the amount of money I was spending on a quality hairstylist who never gave me a bad haircut.

OK, out of SHAME

I put in their "proper" place:

- a dirty plate
- a dirty wine glass (from last night, I swear!!)
- bottled water
- a cup of Darjeeling tea (YUM!)
- my red thread bracelet
- Flonase
- Gaviscon
- my Bad Hair Day cap
- a flyer from Bed, Bath, and Beyond

That's a teeeeeny bit better. Isn't it????

Not bad, not bad...and I love my clutter, so I can understand yours...

Ms Eff, whose apartment looks like it was raided by a Gypsy caravan, who had a fight with a Witch-Doctor, who then had it out with Cyndi Lauper, who was then routed by a paint dealership...ohhhh, the carnage!!!

many wonderful memories of my vacation
4 hours left to go in this work day
just the computer terminal, some jottings on a piece of paper, a pencil, and moi
the need for my afternoon cup of coffee
the comfort of my short blue denim jumper over a black shirt with black tights and black shoes
no more time left to post!
