Vampire-friendly dining!
OK, it's just crab-and-pig's-blood soup from the local pho place, but I bet Spike would like it.
I did manage to get something out for Seasonal Spuffy at the very last minute, in a great hurry. Yay?
Spent several days this week helping a friend deal with excess cats and move out of her old place. Today the remnants of Hurricane Bob blew into Phoenix, and we had measurable rain for the first time since March. Quite heavy (well, heavy for AZ) in some parts of town, though it was just enough to get the grass too wet to mow here. We took advantage of the unseasonably low temperatures to whack down the bouganvilla in the back yard -- it's got to be trimmed way back as the first step in getting ready to replace the chain link fence. As usual when you deal with bouganvilla, we both ended up bleeding and cursing. We got about two-thirds of it cut back, but it exacted its revenge.
We also started going through some of the boxes of books in storage. With much regret, I think I'm going to get rid of most of mine. We just have no place to keep them, and I can't read them when they're packed up in boxes. I'll keep ones that have sentimental value or can't be easily got in digital form, but most of them will have to go. :/
Anyway, what with lugging boxes of one sort or another for several days in a row, not to mention the vicious bougainvilla attacks, I'm feeling wiped. And I've got to get up early and hope the lawn's dry enough to mow tomorrow morning. I also need to go read all the other SS contributions and leave comments. Maybe tomorrow my brain will be in working order again...
