kageotogiThree day weekends are probably my most favoritest weekends. Just saying.
On Saturday, I took the day to myself. I ran some errands, cleaned my house, and then chillaxed on my couch for the rest of the day. It was fantastic. On Sunday,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
thstlenshmrock and I mulched the yard (and I coerced her into trying out the Wii Fit) and, later, Lanky came over and we made tomato soup from scratch. Which was delicious, but made my house very, very hot. Afterward, he coerced me into watching Shampoo, which was great in its day, I'm sure, but was pretty boring for us. As happens.
Today, I went hiking with a friend from work. Our plan was to hike a nine-mile loop (we were originally thinking of a longer hike, but opted out of it when we realized it was CRAZY STUPID HOT OUTSIDE) and go home. Instead, we hiked seven miles, lost the trail, spent half an hour looking for the trail, and then gave up and doubled-back, all in all hiking at least fourteen miles. It took about six and a half hours, and by the end we were dying. Our legs were practically numb, our feet were nearly killing us, and we were nursing various aches and pains (my knee, her ankle, etcetera). But it was epic, and we felt like Rocky toward the end of it.
So that's good.
Unrelated, ants have somehow found their way into my house and have decided my cats' food is delicious. I took some preliminary precautions to keep them out, but I think I'm going to have to venture to the store tomorrow to find a way to take care of the problem before the pests get back in. This will probably mean I have to nix my strawberry pie baking plans. Which, really, should just teach me not to make plans. :)

Date: 2010-06-01 01:52 am (UTC)Ally baked cookies this afternoon for a Young Communists League meeting tomorrow at which the movie Capitalism: A Love Story is being shown, so between that and dinner (baked chicken with barbecue sauce), our kitchen's been hot all afternoon. Thankfully it's cooler now.
