No Useful Title



7:30 am
                Well now what. What will today bring? I did spin those 1 ½ ounces, so now I can ply. And I did a little bit of work on the cages, that needs to be finished. I measured and cut the wire for the bottom, but getting it to really fit in there has been a chore, and now I must nail it down with big staples and it is kind of buckling so that is hard, especially as it means reaching way in and there is not much room.
                L is home today.  She is mostly doing things to get ready for her trip – drying lots and lots of food, she needs to go to EMS and she needs to get the car inspected – good thing she realized the sticker is for September!   Oh, that is the other thing I spent a lot of time on yesterday, was looking at computer listings on Craigslist, emailing and reading responses. I did figure out that a 15.5 inch is too big for her and that is what most laptops are. And the tiny 9 inch are too small, so that limits it a good bit. And I want to find one with Windows 7 not XP so that limits it more.
                Today I also need to work between: haircut at 11:15 (and I really should contact A about getting tea before/after) then I need to leave at 3 to get to Mom’s at 4:30 so we can eat at 5 and I can leave around 5:30 to get to Framingham to get L. At least she said it is ok to take her car. I guess I also need to get down there to get it. I will bike there, that will be fine. And bike up for the haircut. I should leave G’s bike at Bike Exchange to get the tire fixed…. And I need to drop things at the library. I finished the dumb Wherever I Leave My Hat tape. Now I am listening to a tape of Terri Gross interviewing comedians. It is very funny. And I started reading Gabriela, which I do like. Don’t really remember it, though I do remember that I was reading it while visiting the zoo in Guatemala city. And I don’t remember anything at the zoo except some really dusty room with natural history stuff…. And watching families.
                Got the official note from work about the start of the new year. It was odd because I also had a dream early this morning about S and some lockers and she got really mad about something. It wasn’t me she was mad at. And of course, as is so often true with these sort of anxiety dreams, at some point I was naked.
                Another big project that needs to be worked on is the compost. I need to do a big clean under cages. At least the cage repair work got me to clean inside the two hutch areas which were really gross. Those are the other two that I must replace with wire. Eventually.
                Next week is going to be a bit tricky. I must start on Tuesday, if not Monday, but there is no bus until the week after – after Labor Day. Some days I can get in with K, some I can take the station wagon, and I might even bike once or twice, though it is damn far. I would take K’s bike which can get to a really low gear. Use that for the nasty hill on rt 47.
