saturday we went to a bbq with rach's work people. then we stopped at city o' city for dessert. walking back to the car, i took a picture of the capital building and while i was waiting with my camera propped on top of a meter to keep it still while the picture took, a bus went by. i like the resulting picture better than the one without the bus.

also this weekend, we bought a hammock stand (dirt cheap, thanks to rach's amazing craiglist-watching skillz) that actually works with the hammock we have. it is so nice. the only problem with it, imo, is that it's still so fucking hot every day that i don't want to go outside. i really hope that changed soon. but today isn't likely to be that day, with the forecast high of 93. sigh.

yesterday while rach and i were doing our weekly house cleaning, my muddled lethargy just... cracked. suddenly i felt motivated. for the first time in... well, since we got back from MA certainly. and not a moment too soon, man. i have so much to do this week, i could puke. but i won't. i'll just try to get it done instead, now that i feel like i can. one thing i accomplished yesterday was to get my inbox down to 14 messages. alxamdulilaah. i feel 10 pounds lighter, at least. ahhh.

7. Dirty or Clean: Clean
8. Tattoos and/or Piercings: Nope. Not against 'em, don't have 'em.
9. Do we know each other outside of LJ?: Yup. Started off that way.
10. What's your philosophy on life?: Hmm, how about 'Life has no philosophy.'
11. Is the bottle half-full or half-empty?: Depends on what's in the bottle and if I want to drink it. Mostly, though, the bottle is just a bottle.
12. Would you keep a secret from me if you thought it was in my best interest?: Sure. Don't have any, though. Can't think of any that would come up.
13. What is your favorite memory of us?: Hmm. I feel like I'm forming them all the time as I finally learn to relax and be myself around you. I'm gonna say it's a tie between the week in Colorado and suggesting that your father wants to fuck Jessica Alba in the ass.
14. What is your favorite guilty pleasure?: Hmm. Videos of bad things happen? VidMax.com kind of stuff.
15. Tell me one odd/interesting fact about you: Jeezum, what don't you know? I tend to be a fairly open, boring book. Okay, today I invented the phrase: Solar Farty Dough.
16. You can have three wishes (for yourself, so forget all the 'world peace, etc.' malarkey) - what are they?: 1) Invulnerability, without aging. 2) 10 billion dollars a year for life. 3) A TARDIS.
17. Can we get together and make a cake?: PLEASE.
18. Which country is your spiritual home?: England.

20. Do you think I'm a good person?: Yes I do. Very much so.
21. What was your best/favorite subject at school?: English Literature.
22. Describe your accent: The generic non-accent of TV, but then a Massachusetts word will pop out when I least expect it.
23. If you could change anything about me, would you?: Yup. I'd move you to Somerville.
24. What do you wear to sleep?: Long pajama bottoms and a t-shirt.
25. Trousers or skirts?: Gonna go with trousers.
26. Cigarettes or alcohol?: Alcohol. Easy peasy.
27. If I only had one day to live, what would we do together?: Hmm. Braid each other's hair? Just hang out and talk all day? I suppose you could put mascara on me again if you wanted to.
28. Will you re-post this so I can fill it out for you?: Yup.
29. One other thing I must know in order to understand you: ugh. Don't want to end on a downer, but how about profound self-loathing?
