Trying to tune her out. All about a fence. Okay.
So I heard from tree guy yesterday--sounded like he was a thousand years old; it's a family business so I'm guessing it was grandpa. He said he was going to go by and look at the trees so I'm waiting to hear back from him. I told him I was embarrassed by the state of the backyard. He told me he was embarrassed by taking a week to get back to me the first time and he's seen it all, so... Mutual embarrassment fest. *g*
Managed to find enough work to do yesterday to leave some for today but still don't have a ton to do and boss will be here all day. *sigh*
I watched some of the All Star Game last night. Perez, our catcher, played the first four innings and handled himself well with four different pitchers. I managed to miss the AL breaking the 3-3 tie as well as our closer, Holland's, 7th inning because I was driving home from my parents' and couldn't find the game on the radio. But, yay, AL won. :)
I then caught up on DOOL and Storage Wars and then watched the first episode of the Strain which I quite enjoyed despite my squick over wormy things. I forgot the female lead was Mia Maestro; haven't seen her in anything since Alias but I always liked her. Also, bad hobbit, bad.
*g*
I'm guessing the differences in "vampires" will be explained as things move along. There's the big monster, the dead ones, the guys with flickering eyes...
Managed to spoil myself for 24. *sigh* In a fricking comment on tvguide.com I'll try to watch those tonight. Le Tour is pretty much a flat stage with some small (category 3 and 4, the smallest) mountains at the end, so I can skim through most of it. I want to rewatch TW, too.
A couple people want me to continue my Stiles/Lydia pregnancy one shot and I'm considering it along with the zillion other fics I have to write. *sigh* I started my fullmoon ficlet fic and have one paragraph. Yay. Happy smut but I have to find time to write it.
I have to mow when I get home. Blech.
In some kind of irony I've been rereading a very long fic that hasn't been updated since April and today a very long update appeared. :) So, something to read at lunch.
So...that's me so far today. Exciting.
