Aimless
Sometimes, I love having an aimless day. Since the weather doesn't know what the hell it wants to do (See 'Mother Nature Has PMS') yet, I can't go outside and finish putting down the Sweet Peet. Therefore, I am relegated to being inside, which does have its benefits.
Today has been completely aimless. I woke up at something o'clock (it was after 7 AM, I know that much), fiddle-farted around and played with the cats and eventually sat down in my office to check my email. Eventually, I got around to giving the two bathrooms upstairs a thorough cleaning and then ran the vacuum upstairs.
I took a short stroll out to get the newspaper and mail, made myself a turkey sammich, read the paper, and am contemplating cleaning the half bath on the main floor and doing the vacuum thing there as well. I can't decide whether or not to turn the A/C off yet. I'll contemplate that a little later, too. It's darkening up outside with an impending thunderstorm, and that begs for me to take a nap... but I'd best not do that and do some more cleaning instead.
Oh, how I love listening to the noises of the house, the animals outside (mostly birds), and just the surrounding quiet. I hear the A/C turn on and off, the fridge turn on and off, the clocks on the wall ticking, the cooler under my laptop running, and the creaks the house makes when the wind picks up. The cats are both napping, as that's what cats do. I suppose I'll finish up cleaning inside and then head outside after 4 PM, as that's when it's supposed to clear up and start back up with the nice weather. None of that 93+ degree shit for a while.
I believe that this post has been as aimless as my day has been. Sometimes, life is like that... a little bit aimless. And it's good for the soul. However, it's not good for someone to be aimlessly pushing their shopping cart in front of me in the store, or in the parking lot as I'm trying to drive past them. Aimless in public does not work. Aimless at home does. (See? I even worked in a little PSA there.)
