the_rckCordelia and her friend ended up pulling 5.5 trash bags of stuff out of her room. Half of that went into the trash bin. The other half is probably donatable. I'm going to go through the stuff this afternoon to make sure that nothing's going out that Scott or I value. Cordelia realized that Scott would want to keep his childhood teddy bear, but she might not realize that one of us wanted some other item.
I also ruled that we're keeping the camping pad. It's in the hall closet now. There's room for it there since I got rid of the ancient Disney Princesses air mattress and sleeping bag set. We'll want the pad if Cordelia ever has someone spend the night again.
The idea of added salt was kind of horrible yesterday, so I didn't do it. Today, I'm feeling out of proportion exhausted, and last night, I ached. The aching might just have been because I walked so long on Wednesday and then cleaned the fridge until I was just short of falling over on Thursday, but... It's so very hard to tell. I have a sample size of one and a lot of variables that I can't easily control for.
There's a reason it took me decades to realize that blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries all make me sick the day after I eat them.
I haven't written any fiction in a week. I'd like to manage some more before the end of the year, but I don't know if it's going to happen. I need to get going on the time travel exchange story. I have a rough shape for it, but I need to review the canon and don't wanna. Meh.
I'm going to try to catch up on book logging today and to answer a couple of sets of questions about writing. I also want to finish some library books so that I can return them tomorrow. Most of what's waiting for me to pick up, hold-wise, is CDs, so it's not that my shelf of to-be-read library books would overflow. It's just that some things can't be renewed and that others should be easy to get through fast. I just haven't made myself start.
The stuff that's due tomorrow that can't be renewed is:
Star Wars Rebels complete season 4 - We've only got 3-4 episodes left. I think we'll be fine on this one.
Venom - We've watched 10 minutes and may not get back to it.
Timeless season 1 - We haven't started this. There's a hold on this and a copy on the shelf, but the library system won't let me renew unless someone actually has time to go to the shelf and retrieve the copy that's there already.
How to Invent Everything by Ryan North - I've just barely started this, but it looks amusing, so I'd like to go on with it.
Teahouse of the Almighty by Patricia Smith - This is a book of poetry. I'm maybe a quarter of the way through it and may give up due to lack of time.
Also due tomorrow but can be renewed:
Elementary season 4 - I'm six episodes in.
Negima! omnibus v.1 - This is a reread, but it's been so many years that I really want to review so that I can try to remember who's who. This is one of those manga series with far too many characters whose backstories and abilities actually matter to what's going on. I remember liking that aspect of the series but finding it overwhelming, too.
