ooh! oh, but wait.

I was going to say, does someone want to bring me some sesame seeds and green onions, because I really don't want to go out and get them, but I'd like to make this Korean beef stew recipe I ran across when I was looking to see what all this bento fuss was about.  (My take on the bento thing:  it's all very cute.  I don't have the patience to make lunches, much less cutiefy them.  But y'all have fun with that.)

But then I remembered that I'd have to thaw the beef first.  So I'll take it out of the freezer now, and get the seeds and onions tomorrow.  (Soy sauce and vinegar, I already have.)  Yay for effortless problem-solving!

vacuuming

... is one of those things I hate doing, but really like having done.  It makes the carpet smooth and pretty, and also fluffy under my feet.

I have also washed all the dishes (and loaded the dishwasher with stuff that doesn't need to be washed by hand), cleaned the kitchen and the bathroom so they are sparkly, and done all the laundry.  Everything I've touched since the last time I did laundry!  Only my gym clothes and my scuzzy I'm-doing-laundry-now clothes remain unlaundered.  (And things that are still brand-new clean from the last time I did laundry.)

Between this and the new bookshelf, I'm all over this living-in-my-space thing.  I just need a smaller hall table.  And another pen cup.  And more hangers.  And some kind of over-the-tank cabinet thing for the bathroom, because I'm right out of shelf-and-cabinet space in there.

Also I've got some stuff to give to the Goodwill and to think about listing on eBay.  And next weekend I'll be out of town, but maybe some time soon I'll do a Sock Reset.

What I am sick of is whatever is going wrong with my innards.  Last month I forgot to take my last pill on the Saturday of the third week, so it made sense that everything sped up a day or so (I'm used to late Wednesday, so Monday evening was a bit of a surprise).  But this month I took all my pills, and yet today is only Monday, and grr.
