waiting for a thunderstorm

I got the laundry done this morning, which is good. I don't know if it's the weather or the number of washing machines that are out of order or both, but the laundromat smelled like mold and mildew. That was less good. I still have to wash towels and blankets, but those can wait a week. I always seem to have slightly more laundry to do than I can carry in one trip. Not for long, though.

I have a whole list of things I could pack if I could get myself to do it. What I really want is a staging area in which to put things to be packed. If they're staring at me, I'll do something about them. Unfortunately the best place for that is the table, and the table is where everything that doesn't really have a home lives. I'll have to clean that off first, and I'm having a terrible time convincing myself to get around to it.

Speaking of getting around to things, I suppose I should go close the shutters before my bedroom gets rained into.

I am so ready for the July SOP meeting and the office lambada to be over with. I really do like my job, but I needed vacation at the end of May and I haven't had it yet. I'm at whatever's on the far side of done. Next year I'm taking a week off in April and a week off in August.
