Monday again

Blah. I could start out with the same old Monday spiel, tons to do and no motivation. But I think that's a given by now. Sad thing is I don't even feel like replying to my penpals.

It's comparatively warm out today, mid-fifties, and it was sunny earlier. I'm enjoying having the window cracked open and not freezing. But it's getting cloudy out now, probably cooling off a bit too.

Spiders have come out today. I've sprayed 4 today in the living room, and Jens killed one in the hall before he left. Twitch and die, you little bastards. Twitch. And. Die.

Not looking forward to cleaning the guest room for mom, Karl took the screen out of the window so there's probably tons of the little bastards crawling around in there. *shudder* I'm putting a can of fast action spider killer spray on our grocery list. A must have before venturing in there. The stuff I have now takes a little longer than I'd like, but considering it's not technically for spiders ...

I've been getting horribly confused lately. I keep hearing people talk about Mother's Day, but that isn't until May, according to my calendar, so what gives? Also, I had a conversation with someone yesterday about how it was the 19th, and um, yeah. It wasn't. Who was I talking to? No clue. I think I'm cracking up.

Number five. Just sprayed. And six.

Also, snagged from potionsmistress ( Klein Sexual Orientation Grid )

Looking up

I had a nice walk with Froggle, wearing a jean jacket instead of a winter coat. It was so nice. And the sun! The sun was SHINING! *spazdance*

Came back and wrote my Korean penpal. I still need to write the Scottish girl.

I cleaned and attempted to use my shiny new coffee maker. I had forgotten the correct amount of coffee to put in, and since I usually prefer strong coffee I figured it's best to err on the strong side. Now the important part, when it says "makes five cups" it really means "makes two and a half." My coffee beat me up and took my lunch money. Lesson learned.

I may clean the house since I have a little coffee buzz going. And once the dishes are all done, and the kitchen is clean I'm going to make pound cake. Mmmmmm pound cake. *wonders if you can lose weight on a coffee and pound cake diet*

Speaking of weightloss, my waffling attempts at weightloss appear to be slowly working. I lost two kilograms (about 4 and a half lbs) in about three weeks. Not much but hey, it's better than gaining. I was looking at sexy corsets and stuff as added incentive. Oh the clothes I would wear if I were a twig.
