Day Off

[mousme]

I am declaring today a Phnee Day. It means I get to sit around in my pajamas all day if I want to, and do nothing but read and futz on the internet if that's what tickles my fancy.

I may do a load of laundry, but that's only because I have no clothes at all left to wear (except for all my winter stuff, but that's a little warm, even for the current rainy-and-not-hot weather).

I am happily doing writing for Skywatch. I'm enjoying getting momentum back in the game and having fun figuring out new plots (and resurrecting old plots) for the characters.

Last night's stir fry was a success, although I am disappointed that my local store does not, as I was told, carry TVP. I shall have to find a different source for it, is all. I picked up a different variety of tofu, and have found that my only regret is not trying this nifty food earlier in my life. Tofu is awesome. :)

I have struggled for the better part of four hours with Open Office (counting the hours I struggled with it last night and today), and am annoyed. Because I have to run it as though it's Linux-based, it takes forfreakingever on my poor, tired computer. Cleopatra is five years old, and she just ain't what she used to be.

However, while it's really really slow, it's better for sharing files than my default word processing application which isn't compatible with anything on the planet. So.

The rest of the afternoon will be devoted to slacking off, and maybe some writing and some laundry. I have to figure out what's happening in Conflation. I sort of got stalled there because I'm beginning to feel like the writers of Lost. :P

I'd be most happy to participate in Tickle Phnee Day, but alas, the miles prevent. Perhaps a substitute might do that for me? :)

prolixfootle has mentioned a trip with the fearsclave family and yourself to the Footle farm. I think that's a grand idea, especially since he lives minutes away from me. ;)

Heh. While I would *love* to come visit, I am still suffering from No Vacation Time Syndrome. I am awaiting word from my supervisor to know if he'll give me a week without pay at the beginning of July, but that's still up and the air and would be entirely out of pocket: I can probably (maybe) afford it once this year, but after that I'm financially too squeezed to manage it again.

Also? No tickling. Otherwise you're likely to find an elbow in a tender part of your anatomy. I truly truly dislike it, and I tend to flail as a result. And when I say I dislike it, I actually mean it. Most people don't believe me until I insist on this fact.

what's TVP?

Textured Vegetable Protein. It's dehydrated soy, or something, as I understand it.
