Just a gorgeous day out at the Villa by the Lake

Um ... universe, would you be a dear and make it so that the temperatures can be like this all year round? Nothing too excessive in the daytime and refreshingly cool at night? Pleeeeeeease??? Alas, I just don't think it'll happen, so I'd better enjoy it while it lasts.

At least I finally FINALLY got around to doing mounds of laundry. And I did it the intelligent way, not lugging it in my arms, but using my walker - even though I only had to walk a few feet. I also met a rarity - a youngish man doing laundry during the day?!? Anyway, I managed to get it done and was so relieved. It still took me a while to make the bed. I was lucky to pull out a newish (some of my sheet sets go back a couple of decades easily) black fitted sheet that actually FIT my pillowtop mattress. And what did I top the black sheet and shams with? Why ... MORE FISHIES!!! Yes, I'm definitely on a cute fishies romp.

Even though I'd taken it easy, I was still in pain, so took a useless ibuprophen and then tried to have a nap. No luck. So I got up, made myself a sandwich and poured myself a Galliano over ice in a wine glass. Oh ... Galliano. When I used to frequent Le Trou Normand in Yorkville, the owners would always treat me to a Galliano after a meal. ::sighs longingly for the good old days:: I also did the sga_squee rewatch of S4 E4 Doppelganger, an episode that I both loathe and adore. Well, I loathe the creepy, dying parts but adore the John&Rodney heroics and love for each other (hey, nobody has to TELL me; I can SEE it).

Anyway, that was my mostly industrious day, so I'm giving myself a wee pat on the back. Now I think I'll pour myself some flavoured water on the rocks and ... veg for a while. And that's a plan!
