My Thursday started on Wednesday and is still going on
It started when I got home from rehearsal Wednesday and was informed that the cat had thrown up on the new quilt. Okay. No big. We bought one that was machine-washable because of this very likelihood. But...
I woke to chainsaws next door on Thursday morning. Not happy. Pulled a pillow over my head and tried to ignore them for an hour. Gave up. Got up. Cursed them. Showered. I called the Mama-san to see if her spiffy new(er) washer was large enough in capacity. ( ::fingers crossed really hard:: ) No go. So off to the laundromat. The last time I was in a laundromat was 1995 in Kerhonkson, NY. Oy. Ugh. ::sigh:: Took quilt, detergent, fabric softener, script, and Victorian Costuming book. Went to laundromat. Started 3x capacity washer. Went two doors down for triple grande soy latte and slice of pumpkin bread. Yummy. Spent 2.5 hours in landromat while quilt washed and dried; studied lines, read costuming book. Loaded back up and went home.
Went to farmers' market with Mama-san. This was a good part of the day. Didn't buy much, but did get another head of super-yummy cauliflower. And bought Rainier Cherries. Yay, for Rainier Cherries!!!! Went home.
Fixed way yummy dinner.
Went to rehearsal. This was another really good part of the day. Why? Because I KICKED ASS. :-D I love to fight, and broadswords a way fun. ::happy dance:: Went home. Put clean quilt on bed. Slept well.
Got up. Showered. Thought, I know! I'll transfer those music files I bought the other day onto the big box and burn them and some old ones to CD so I can make mp3s for my mp3 player! Discover computers no longer want to recognize access permissions. Cannot fix without IT Support (i.e. Nordic Boy). Call IT at work. He cannot fix without being here. ::grrr::
At least I get to go out for Mexican for lunch today. And I'm planning halibut and fennel for dinner. That'll be nice. I can cook while Nordic Boy makes the fucking computers play nicely together again. ::grrr::

I feel a bit like Arthur Dent. "I never could get the hang of Thursdays." ::sigh::
Must take kitty to vet for penecillin shot today. Joy. :-P
