For starters, let me just say that Skippy Snack Bars are really really good. Too bad they're not very good for you …
I just got the moving check-out list from our apartment manager. Mon dieu! What a list. I had no idea everything had to be sooooo perfect before we moved out. Sure I figured it needed to be cleaned, but yeesh! The checklist is 2 pages long, single spaced. We're even required to have the carpets professionally cleaned. Does renting a stain-master from the grocery store count? And how am I going to fit this crap into the incredibly short moving window we've got, exakly? Can someone explain that to me? Thank goodness I asked now instead of in two weeks. We'll have to make some plans around this. I may need to make some charts and get out the ol' slide rule (TI-89). Wonder if carpet cleaners come after 5 PM ….
At least the library had a bunch of my reserves ready to pick up. So I've got a nice thick stack of books to read … some by Gerald Durrell and some by Meg Cabot and some by Gene Stratton-Porter. Going to the library is not nearly such a chore since I found the traffic light-less route to the library (and it will work for the post office too). Taking this new route cuts me down from FIVE poorly timed traffic lights (in 1.5 miles) to 0. Excellent, this. Another fun quizzy thing I'd done a while back and my brother-in-law recently reminded me of it is Political compass. It's a test to determine where you stand on the political spectrum … and not just left to right, but also authoritarian to liberatarian. I am a 3, -3 (approximately) which, if you look at the site, should give you a good idea of why I'm having some problems with the upcoming election. There's practically no one anywhere near me. Except Tchikovsky.
Maybe I should start my own party? But I can't think of anything snappy to call it. Oh well… I'd better shelf that idea.
Coit usualy does come after the hour and my personal opinion,their $115(about) to clean or my three hours and about $35-50 to rent it!
