My back yard is nicely cleaned up. Not perfectly; I need to figure out how to throw away large objects like busted kid pools and yard debris, but at least the garbage is stacked nicely to once side. The plants are all arrainged, the grass is (to my deep and delighted surprise) growing, and I discovered that my lilies, irises, and daffodils are already blooming! Yay! I'm hoping my Lucifer survives. I planted the bulbs this morning, but since they were out of the ground for a little over two weeks while I was in Cali, I'm not terribly hopeful. BE STRONG, LUCIFER!
... Oh geez, that's kind of funny.
Anyway.
I've made a little headway into getting the house cleaned up on the inside. Granted, by some standards, it was pretty damn clean to begin with. However, I was raised by a slightly OCD mom and an even more OCD grandmother... make that two OCD hyper-clean grandmothers. No shit, one of my grandmothers could see a cat hair on her kitchen floor from across the room. I'm not quite that bad, but I do like to be able to see stretches of carpet when I walk into the living room, and I do like cleared flat surfaces in general, and... well, I'm working on it.
Man, my back yard looks good.
I got a lot of work done on Infernal Shenanigans! as well, which is nice and lovely because that's where I'm hoping money comes from. See, I haven't found that mythical chocolate dick that ejaculates money yet, so I'm still looking to get greenbacks the old-fashioned way: bank robberies. Or was that extortion? ... Anyway.
On the bright side, getting things done means that I won't feel bad taking the rest of the evening off to draw and write!
Also, best of luck to my unbiological brother who is taking the ASVAB right about now. If you don't score a perfect, man, I'm never talking to you again and you'd better wear sackcloth and ashes and yell "UNCLEAN" when people pass by close to you. Seriously.
Nah, I kid.
Seriously, dude. Do not dishonor our ancestors.
