absolution cats please stop puking,

Listens: please.

i learned that there is a line about a powder keg in "total eclipse of the heart".

went to Troy and Dana's last night for rock band and hangin' out, got to hear Phoebe sing (!) and see sweet little Penelope. hearing "just what i needed" (more than once even) helped seal the night too, along with Troy's ridiculous avatar complete with rock biscuit logo. and T&D's pets are awesome; Molly always makes me laugh and Roz has the prettiest facial markings. was fun.

the rest of the weekend is drudgery i figure. laundry and spring cleaning and tons of cooking to make up for the week of NONE (!), little fixer-upper projects scattered through the place. need to do the seasonal wardrobe rehaul too; no more sweaters for a buncha months, alas. mm, but the weather in the evenings is so perfect right now; i want to make sure to sit still and enjoy it, take it all in before we move onto sheer humid sweltering mosquito-rife misery. my allergies and my lust are, naturally, in full force right now. you know, where you wake up to pearly sunlight and clear air and blink your eyes and look at the person next to you and their face just makes you SMILE, they're just so excitingly cute. /cheese. (and then you promptly sneeze.)

yesterday's final stop on this week's (inadvertent, was going to be little-known lunch counters and it just wound up as...) soul food expedition made R happy. i love that he told me "it was like being in a cassavetes movie."
