Whaffor you carry the hose?

teinedreugan is away for two weeks because of crazed business practices. I will not be getting much time with him this summer, alas. He left yesterday, at a ridiculous hour of the morning, and is safely ensconced in a hotel in Utah. It's going to be awfully weird without him around. I'm not to the "Waugh, I miss you" state, and we've chatted a lot in email today, but ....

I am attempting to be more or less productive in his absence, though I have not made actual progress on things today so much as continued maintenance: started dishwasher, washing sheets and the towel he asked me to launder. I did find my seed corn and plant the second corn crop, though; the seed packets had opened up in the plastic bag they were stashed in, so the seed corn was mixed up with a few beans, peas, and some other random seeds. It is, however, large, and thus easy to extract, and the plots are now planted and watered. (That's whaffer.)

Yesterday, I assisted arawen with his woodworking, in one of those amusing displays of "My power exchange relationship is nowhere near as exciting as some people would really like it to be." He says I saved him about an hour and a half of work; Mongo good minion.

The box computer is b0rken. This frustrates me in unprintable ways.

Am considering moving the stacks of gaming books out of the living room and down to the basement, though there is nowhere near enough shelving to store them properly at the moment. But that would be progress on the ongoing establishment of order in the house. Pondering poking the Ikea catalogue to see if there is anything obvious for a couple of places that I want more shelving, rather than having to go to the effort of designing and building it.
