About to flee...

Have wedding shower (I'm hosting one for a friend's daughter) related errands this morning.

Purchased a new (to us) Volvo yesterday, which generated dozens more errands. Oddly, I have a feeling this car is female, or at least androgynous. All my cars before have been male. I will keep you updated if my perception of Willow's gender changes. (I suspect that now I've slapped that name on her, her gender has been decided for her.)

From the horoscope wars:
Let your fantasy world spill out on to a piece of paper for others to see.
Right, I will, once I'm done with everything else.

Leaving for Conestoga Friday. Much work in between. Must get some agent queries out....soon.

Uncomfortable moment....

Heavens! What does one say about the skink in their underpants?

I was out in the garden and realized that....something was going on in my pants. My immediate suspicion was a spider.....a biiiiggg spider. It's not exactly like I'd be comfortable stripping outside, so I hustled back indoors, jogged to the bathroom and dropped trou.....dumping a very confused 4-5 inch long skink onto my bathroom floor in the process.

Once I wrangled the skink and got him back outdoors, it was time to cook lunch. But I assure you, a shower is in the offing later.
