msfledermausThe last couple of days off have been a bit of hurry-up and wait...long bits of resting and sacking out with books, and frenzied running around at home Getting Things Done. Then more sacking out. And company!!! I had miss Fleur over for pizza and had the best time:) We played with my yarn stash and she showed me this beautiful sock she's working on. I showed her the goofy hat I was playing with and we geeked out very happily. Soon it will be nice and coolish out again, and I will have the oomph to knit more gut-creatures, since I don't have one in the house...not one!!
I did have other creatures, though. Yesterday I was cleaning up in the kitchen and saw a spider the size of my thumb--the body, not the whole thing. I shrieked and did my best Sigourney-Weaver with the broom, but I think it vanished down the heating vents. I eye them suspiciously now, even though I whacked that thing really hard several times. And this morning I discovered a blue-black wasp in my bathroom first thing in the morning. Again with the Defeat-the-alien techniques, this time using a broom, a paint roller, some soap, a scrunchie and the toilet. Soooo, I probably don't need coffee this morning. I know this sort of thing is just part of living in a state park, but sheesh...
...And it's worth it to sit on the patio furniture with Ben and Peaty and a candle. Ben brought out the laptop and showed me the video for Amy Winehouse's "Rehab', which I hadn't seen. Cooooool, man...
