Rat's Nest
Bloggage, rants, and occasional notes of despair

Jennblog du jour

I've spent most of the afternoon cleaning the study (I didn't choose "Rat's Nest" as the name of this blog out of idle fancy).  Wagimoko said to me, as she went out to schlepp her mother around, "Why don't you clean this mess up so I can put more books in here?"  So I did.

Of course, I started looking at bookshelves.  I asked wagimoko, "About how many as wide as the door do you think we should fit in here?"  She immediately riposted, "Oh, I want those white melamine shelves from Home Despot; you can screw them right to the studs."  This means, of course, that we will never have bookshelves, since we will not purchase them, nor will she set them up.

I'm tired, hot, and dirty; it's getting very warm in here (the airco is down, for reasons unclear to wagimoko), and what fine motor control I have left disappears at about 80°F.  I'll probably sign off until this evening, if not tomorrow.
