h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I have come to the conclusion, THAT early nights are counter productive

Late mornings are better. Which I had this morning, because it is a national holiday and nobody was bothering me.

WHAT! ? you actually got to have a lie-in ???

Yeah. I needed it, because I didn't get enough sleep Saturday night.

But I've just finished for next week! Hurrah! Which is good, because there's plenty to do this week.

you! a lay in! --- good job I'm sitting downhaven't heard THAT one for ages

do you still have plenty of work on ? for the bill payers

my bio-rhythms are going through a state of flux
don't know if it's seasonal or temp' changes, as nights are now starting to draw in again but they'll sort themselves outand tough if they don't

Yeah, this weird weather makes you sleepier.

It's warmed up again, though, which is nice - it just makes me mad, 'cause all the pools are closed now.

No, no paid work right now - if they don't contact me next week, I'll send 'em an email.

fingers crossed that something is on offer

are the pool times similar to the ones at the "old" home ?

Nah. That was the one advantage of living in an apartment in North Carolina - a pool just outside, open all day, every day, for at least four months a year.

Here, you have to call to see if the campground's letting in non-campers. You have to drive there. The weather has to be good, etc. So we didn't get to go swimming much.

If the weather stays warm, we could go over to the farm and use their little pool for a bit. But it's hard to find a good time - school's started again, and everyone's busy.

We'll have to go to Pittsburgh on Wednesday, too. The elderly folk who were going to sell us their organ changed their minds, so we're going to go and look at another one. It's cheaper, which is cool.

cheaper! even better

just a thought! not so much a pool, but have you room on the land to have a Jacuzzi built nice summer evenings etc ?

I'd love to - but it would be too dangerous. Nobody has walls or fences, and there are toddlers around. Also bears.

and the added cost of erecting fencing around as suchscratch 1 idea

Yep - besides, it would annoy the neighbourhood if we put up fences. They don't like that kind of change.

For some strange reason, the dog is sitting on my lap. Now my foot is asleep.

"it would annoy the neighbourhood if we put up fences. They don't like that kind of change"

and I hate open garden type stuff

no disrespect of course, but a lawn at front of house etc so any animal can go cr.p on it - no thanks

I even hate folk walking down/up the street and turning their heads to peer into the homes they pass if no netting/curtains up etc

I prefer privacy as such

I don't blame you, but we didn't pick it, and it's been that way for about 150 years.

I've gotta go, spaghetti is cooking.

Take care, sleep well!

there's always room for change

catch you later - sleep and dream well both

Weather changed last night - got rainy, and warmed up. I woke up, threw off covers, turned up a/c...
