serynLooking back on today yesterday, I accomplished a decent amount of stuff. Most of it was so far down on the priority list as to not quite count, but it sort of does.
I spun. A LOT. I knitted. A LOT. I went to the gym. There was food I made for us to eat. I helped someonetoday. I held my tongue over silliness.
I spent some time this evening looking at vacation choices. I really did like that Oyster.com site when I first looked at it. But apparently I managed to luck into the information I wanted. There's more detail about Hawaii hotels than almost anywhere else, and I happened to agree with their "best" rec. But tonight I looked at their Caribbean choices and damn, those all suck.
I looked at Las Vegas hotels too. I don't have any desire to see Las Vegas. But what I want in a holiday trip is to go somewhere luxurious where I don't have to cook breakfast and someone else will make my perfect cup of coffee. If you want to stay in a 5-star hotel, Las Vegas is a good option for pure value. But I also like things quiet and I want something interesting to do. There wasn't really anything that fits those ideas.

Today I vacuumed. Then I took the vacuum apart, extracted all the random thready crap that wrapped itself around the brush roller, and re-vacuumed the mess it made (after discarding the thready crap manually).
I was going to go to the gym, but vacuuming is athletic enough to count as long as I go somewhere outside.
I have laundry to do, but first I'm going to go out for lunch. Tomorrow I'm going out for breakfast because I have to drop off the car for service.
Using Slang Grammatically: If you abbreviate the noun before adding -(i)an to make it an adjective, it is, by common consensus, both pejorative and distancing. So I always spell out "Christian" and don't use "xian". I want the argument to be about my point and not about me calling them names. Even though I disrespect them and am avidly non-Christian. It applies to all nouns. People who are offended by your disrespect have no interest in discussing your point rationally. I certainly felt that way when I was disrespected this week.
