Earworm...
Woke up this morning with Dancing Days by Led Zeppelin playing on a kind of continuous loop in my head, full stereo from ear to ear. Normally I am anything but fond of earworms, but... back when I was in high school, this was my I-Am-In-A-Good-Mood-Bouncing-Off-The-Walls song, so it's kind of nice. ^__^
Am all packed for Estrella War; now all I have to do is.... um.... clean like a mofo. CLEAN ALL THE THINGS, AAARGH. And pack the car, that too. >_< I'm waiting for a package to arrive from Thinkgeek.com that has a solar charger for my cellphone, mp3 player and Neo in it; stupid thing was supposed to arrive on Friday but they had an address snafu and it didn't. Oh well... I suspect it won't arrive until this afternoon; at least that gives me time to properly clean. My friend Sarah, bless her, is coming by to feed the fuzzbutts while I'm gone; it's so amazingly reassuring to know that somebody I can trust is doing so. I'll still be calling in periodically to make sure they're okay-- they're my furry kids, after all.
Soon as I get back, it's plant-the-garden time. We'll probably get some more cold weather, but DAMN I'm tired of seeing all that sad, dead grass and the weed-choked flowerbeds. Veggies this year, I think-- beans and onions and tomatoes, and I'll plant that Desert Willow in my mom's memory that I promised myself I'd plant. More herbs; maybe a few medicinals or dye-plants this year? Wish I could manage to keep some violets alive, I'd like to have enough to candy-- but it's just too damn hot here, even if I plant 'em in full shade. Meh.
Okay, time to start with the cleaning. Be good while I'm gone, kids, and don't play your music too loud. **sings: Dancin' days are here again--**
