Sort of a this-n-that thing.
OmegaGranny is coming to visit, arriving in Big City at about midnight tomorrow night. As a result, we have been cleaning. This means I’ve been busy busy busy. Lots of reading and thinking, but no late night posts forming in my brain fully written, sort of like Venus rising from the sea.
Let’s see: Since the weather’s been so bad, it got written up big time in Big City’s newspaper, and the anti-gl0bal warming crew have seized upon that article, saying, “See?! See?! Why haven’t the gl0bal warming believers been waving this about? Could it be they have Something To Hide?” Or words to that effect. To which I say, it may have been a cold summer, but it’s still in the top quarter of the past hundred years of weather records. (Which makes me think: Ack. You mean we could be having a colder “summer”?)
(Note to Lisa: There is no set time for us to leave Alaska. OmegaDad loves his job, which is really a Good Thing, compared to how he felt about his job back in Small Mountain University Town. So there’s no calendar I can cross days or months off, looking forward to a move to warmer climes.)
Anyway, in the midst of all the cleaning and laundry and what-not, we purchased a volleyball/badminton kit. Can I just say that (a) my eye-hand coordination has been shot to hell, and (b) I haven’t been running back and forth like that for a while? Aside from that, though, it was grand fun.
I do have a couple of what could be considered “controversial” topics noodling around in my head, based on incidents on other blogs, but am trying to figure out if I’m too wussy to tackle them, or just too tired from all this cleaning. I also have a few pics, which I will toss onto another post.
