Out back

Feb 05, 2011 21:39



It was quite pleasant sitting on the re-cushioned sofa out the back under the trees - reading a volume of The Invisibles (Morrison knows his pop culture) while the TV in the garden shed played an episode of Iron Chef.

I hadn't done that for sometime (mostly because it was impossible while the pups were here) but I used to do it a fair bit in pre-digital TV summer days, sit out there with Pegasus and occasionally Gabby the cat

I keep writing notes in my morning pages about the need to clean up and do some housework. Did the dishes this morning and that was about it. It's just too fucking hot to have anything other than the minimum amount of energy. When I went out on the bus for shopping yesterday, the wonderful air-conditioning was starting to put me asleep! If I have the money for it I should investigate getting something that will cool this place down in Summer (air-conditioning is only one answer).

And maybe I've got this backwards. Maybe instead of moaning about not getting to the housework, I should be moaning about not getting to the comics. I mean it was so frustrating the last few days not having either Fireworks or Photoshop, and now I do.
Time to do something about that.
