I had to make today a laundry day...or was that yesterday...? It was yesterday, but I had to put away the clean stuff today. But anyway I had to have clothes to wear because I ran out of pants. Not a fun thing to run out of. So I had all these clothes and needed to put them away, but found that there wasn't quite space for them. The dresser and closet needed organizing. So this brought on basically a whole cleaning spree. Had to clean the floor so i could sort the clothes; had to clean the closet so I could put the shirts and pants up to hang; had to clean my sink because it just looked nasty comparatively to the rest of the room. Okay that last one isn't quite true because I did that one first, but it really needed it. Gold bond and hair sprinkled around... ick. And now that I have my room in a decent order, I actually concentrate better! I'm not sure if its the environment, the working to get it clean, or maybe that its less dusty or something. All I know is that I like it better, and feel less unwell than the past few weeks have made me feel.
On the pessimistic/downside of things, my computer screen is going bad. Keeps flickering and the corner has a short that is kinda "burning" the LCD, making it black as it gets hot in the lower left edges. I wonder if there's someone that works on things like that. If "worse comes to worse" (...just realized i don't think that phrase makes any sense...), then I might have to convert this laptop into a less portable system, with an external monitor. Did I mention that the backspace key doesn't work? At all? Thank God the delete key does or I'd never be able to type stuff properly, with my poor spelling/typing skills.
