22 November 2007

This is a disappointed thread. I was supposed to be heading to the big city tonight, spending the evening drinking wine and hanging out at Zack_Replica's, but it ain't gonna happen. *sigh*[More:]There's just too damned much to do before I go. In order to catch the ferry, in the next two hours I'd have to: finish my laundry, fold and put away the several loads already done, shower, dress, pack, do the dishes, vacuum, put the clean sheets on the bed, update the 'how to care for cats and operate the woodstove and deal with garbage and what to do in a power outage and stuff' list for my house-sitter, take out the compost and the non-compost food stuff (which goes out into the bush for the aminals), bring in more wood to dry, and a bunch of other stuff I haven't thought of yet. It ain't gonna happen. I was *so* looking forward to a chill evening with the Replica, too! Now I have to leave at 7:45am to catch the morning ferry, and tomorrow's gonna be a crazy day with all the town stuff I gotta do, which would've been easy if it didn't include spending about 3 hours on a ferry and several buses. Nertz.

Okay, this is really a whining thread.

But I'm sorry to hear your plans have fallen through.

Super bummer eliz. I hate when plans fall through. My artist friend moved to Ottawa about 8 weeks ago, and he's got a show opening tomorrow night. I was all set to drive down to see it, and catch up, but sadly, life got in the way. Luckily, he called me last night with his shiny new landline, so that was good. I miss having a cool guy with great dope connections, painting in my garage!

Are "aminals" weird things that come in the night to eat rotten food? People who drink Appleton's rum want to know!

Yes. Weird things. I believe I spotted you out there the other night, f'rinstance.

You could still listen to my radio show - it's on at 9. Goth-o-rama.
I'm assuming that most people will be in a food-induced coma, so there probably won't be many listeners.

You must be more like me, e. I haven't done dishes in a week. I just keep adding more soap.

Heh. My method exactly!

Load #1 done. Drying tea towels as we speak. Load #2 waiting in the wings. Something still smells peculiar.

Zack, I would, but my speakers are still hooked up to my dvd player (way far away from the laptop), and I'd have to tie up my phone line. Plus with dial-up reception is spotty at best. Plus I'm hoping to convince you to play it for me when I get there. Please? ;)

Aw man, you get to ride a ferry? I am so jealous.

Hey,Citizen P..once you ride a few
fairies,they *all* act jealous.Uhh..wait a sec..that came out wrong..

I do love the ferry ride still, though the 2x a day or you're fucked schedule is somewhat limiting. I'm *still* fucking cleaning, too. My housesitter has been sitting on the couch watching a movie, telling me not to worry so much, but y'know, I don't leave the rock (or my cabin) that much, and I guess this is what I do. It would help if I didn't neglect all these chores so appallingly that it takes 18 hours to bring the place to a reasonable level of habitableness (if that's even a word).

I found what smelled peculiar, though. Old steamed cabbage. Man, I seriously have to take care of stuff like that in a more timely fashion. *watches her desirability level among single male MeChazens plummet*
