it’s so really, really AWESOME to have an evening by myself once in a while. got home from will’s at 4pm, and got LCBO, got tonic, got groceries, roasted a chicken and a whole head of cauliflower (mental cheers to scarf’s awesome birthday dinner). spread out ALL THE LAUNDRY like an explosion all over the floor, and ALL THE FOODs, and ALL THE SALADS, and then cleaned up ALL THE WIRES and it’s just so perfectly combining messy and neat, delicious and practical, fun and work – and i can’t imagine doing this “not alone” because in a large way the joy is that i know that i can just drop the big pile of towels and go back to internet.

of course, i don’t, at least not too much, so most chores are done, and lunch is thisclose to being packed, and bed is thisclose to being made, and i’m just so happy.
