Friday
There has been no return of Car Spider, and I’m hoping it’s because the fantastically warm weather has turned the interior of my car into a death oven and fried him to a crisp, much like the sun-bleached, husk-corpse of a wasp that sat in the far, unreachable corner of my rear window for months until I finally hauled out the dustbuster to dispose of it. Hope you enjoyed your slow, hot, burning death, spider! (Will now probably be eaten to death on the way home.)
Things that are making me happy today:
- Early morning sunshine reflected in sprinklers and the birds who splash in the puddles
- Passing vehicles that have dogs sticking their heads out the window
- Good books, a comfy chair and plenty of time
- It’s payday, and the third paycheck for this month (not that the extra paycheck ever really seems to work out, but still)
- Shorty’s exasperated sighs whenever Sunny hops onto the bed at 6:00 a.m. meowing to be fed
- Receiving budget reminders from mint.com: You have exceeded your monthly hair budget (my hair now looks normal again, so it was totally worth the scolding, mint.com!)
- The stupid tick bite I got last weekend is no longer resembling a textbook case of Lyme disease (between the tick and the spider, I fear the bug/creepy crawly population is mad at me)
- Photos of exhausted camping buddies
How about you?
That photo is adorable, but I hate those reminders from Mint.com. I’ve stopped using it. My old system works better for me anyway.

Just the fact that it is Friday is enough for me today. And I love that picture of Shorty and Jason!

Oh, Shorty. SO CUTE. Oh, Jason. SO CUTE.
+ It is a GORGEOUS day day; 65 degrees, NO wind, sunny… the prairie is in it’s two-week green phase and the mountains are purple in the distance. It was a beautiful drive to work this morning.
+ I’ve ruthlessly implemented the GTD system and am now on top of work and even know what the hell to do next with my thesis
+ Unexpected notes/emails from friends far away. So good.
Happy Friday to you!

The photo of your sleeping boys just has me smiling from ear to ear. ADORABLE.
And that spider totally needs to die. Spiders have no business being in moving vehicles.
