Jul. 3rd, 2018 06:33 amUgh. I should've gone to bed when I originally blathered about it yesterday (so about this time) because instead I finished my last Lowcountry -whatever- mystery and then decided I might as well stay up and go swimming. Which meant a shower when I got home, which was a little later than usual because I didn't realize I'd stayed in the pool for more than an hour until someone else showed up. And then I worked on my room a bit and made a huge ol' pile of laundry to do and of course the dryer conked out again (wtf, we just had your vents ~professionally~ cleaned) but I didn't realize that at the time as I was downstairs debating between ordering a pizza and using the last of the bread to make a cheese sammich.
Somehow we hit 2pm and I decided to watch an episode of Bob's Burgers even though I've now seen most of them numerous times. So I'm almost done with my episode when Widget gets home from work and he mentions the laundry, so I go up thinking I'll just take my towels out of the dryer and throw my clothes in and realize... the dryer did not do its job. Dammit.
So I have to babysit it to try and get at least that one load done and it works okay. I try my second load and it conks out after maybe 10 minutes. We try unplugging it and waiting to see if that reset it and maybe? At that point Widget took my clothes out of the dryer and threw them on my bed, not realizing they might've been hot but they were not dry. I didn't fuss too much but I did let him know he was mistaken but that since he was needing his clothes for work, we'd let his go ahead and be the testers for the "reset" theory. It worked out okay but by this time it's after 4pm and my head is killing me.
I slept a bit, woke up for dinner and my headache had taken over my skull. I took something for it and went back to bed and it worked out okay. I woke up a couple of times and each time I thought, "hey, the headache is go-nope, there she is." Eventually I realized I could try something else because enough time had passed. So here we are. I didn't get to dive into my bookcase because my head is still not happy and I'm still working on laundry. Yay.
And now the dryer won't even start. My only consolation is that I didn't throw in the load that has the blankets Ozma's been using as her nest for awhile as those would never dry. Perhaps when Widget comes home I'll ask him to try unplugging it again, or at the very least making sure it didn't somehow unplug itself. I figure the odds of that are pretty high simply because I did email the landlady already.
G'ah, this headache. And I'm all out of fluffy-ish mysteries and the only library book I have left is The Hate U Give which is a brick in both size and emotional fallout so yeah. I could, I suppose, break into the SV books again but I don't even really feel up to that. Maybe it's a sinus thing. Hrmm.
Welp, let's discuss my fluffy mystery series as I'm six books in and now I have Thoughts and Opinions.
( Spoilers. Sorta. )
Off to find something to eat and take my chances with a Benedryl coma.
Oh yeah, and birthday is officially a week away! (Today, for those who play along at home, was my due date. But my childhood summer best friend and I swapped birth days so she was born early and I was born late. Huzzah!)
