ah. how i love the sight of a clean bedroom in the morning. my apartment is so small that it really takes little more than a sneeze to get it all messed up again. after spending this entire weekend discarding all sorts of things that i've pack-ratted for so long, i managed to create some semblance of organization in my room. then i set to giving everything it's own niche in my room, to keep it off the floor yet easy to find. i laundered every article of clothing, bedsheets and drapery i use and dusted and vacuumed every inch. now i have the bedroom for which i've been longing- simple, attractive, comfortable, clean. ahhhhhh! i love it! i also cleaned my kitchen, with a little help from Sinatra. he (incarnated as my broom and crooning through my stereo) and i danced through my teensy kitchen and erradicated every little bit of dust, food or goo that may have taken up residency on the floor. Ah. Sinatra. Nothing puts you in musical movie mode like that man, save for gene kelley. but i don't have any gene kelley albums, so frank is my right hand man when it comes to housework.
last night and the night before were also devoted to long walks and star gazing. this meteor shower, natural as it may be, is really an awesome affair. i don't recall ever bothering to lay down and stare at the sky for hours until this weekend. what an experience. i'll have to make that a hobby of mine- meteor shower or no.
