Mondays suck. Everyone knows this. Just thought I’d restate the obvious.
Do you want to know something I feel bad about? (I’m telling you whether you do or not, actually.) I feel bad that my work pays a lot of money to run the air conditioning for our office, and then I warm it right back up with my space heater. It was seriously 66 degrees in here earlier, which is slightly ridiculous, especially since we’re all dressing for the hot summer weather that has finally arrived. I wore flip flops (fancy office ones like these) and my toes are seriously blue.
Speaking of seriously blue – if you watch True Blood, have you noticed how much more pale everyone is? During last night’s episode Bill was so pale he was almost blue at one point. Anyway, that was one seriously good episode, and it’s hard to wait for next week. I’m also sad that there are only 3 new episodes left this season. Finally, what is up with the Jessica/Hoyt story line? It wasn’t in the books, and I don’t get the necessity of it other than continuing to use a character they made up in the first season.
I’m kicking myself for not taking a picture of the kittens this weekend. I’m explain more about them tomorrow, but suffice it to say I’m missing their absolute cuteness.
You can roll your eyes at me if you want (the nice thing is I can’t see it through the computer), but last week I joined FlyLady. Aaron is much busier at work these days, working long hours and being constantly busy during those hours, and so I need to pick up the slack a little around the house. Trouble is, he’s the good housekeeper in our family, and I have no idea what to do. I really like this system so far because it basically tells me what to do, so I don’t have to make any decisions. So far the dishes have been done every night before bed (which is different) and I’ve done at least one load of laundry every day (and put it promptly away, which is also different). Not that I live in squalor usually, it’s just that having a toddler tends to take up all my time. This is already helping to make things easier around the house, so I’m enjoying it. We’ll see if it continues to go so well. I tackle my first “hot zone” tonight.

I turn on the space heater in my office during the summer too!
I have never heard of flylady...
Can you believe that I had to Google FlyLady? I had no idea what that was, but I can quickly see myself becoming obsessed. Once this crazy nesting phase I'm in is over, I'm definitely going to need something like that to help me keep up. My big thing is laundry. I HATE doing laundry and especially folding it. My current method is to just wait long enough for Joe to get irritated that the laundry isn't done so he'll do it himself, but that's not going to work forever.
Sunday's episode was really good, wasn't it? But yes, I agree with you: the vampires are WAY too pale, and not all of them pull it off the way Eric does (ahhh, Eric. The dream sequence made the whole episode for me). And am I the only one who is REALLY irritated by Bill this season?
