morning you showed up fine

Oscars: Worst opening ever and Ellen did a so-so job, sadly. Yay Jennifer! And yay for no longer living back East: actually had a couple of hours to come down from the crap food glitz and glam rush.

Sunday: toneyvr and I went nordic skiing at Cypress/Hollyburn again. There was lots of fresh snow so we gallumped straight up the mountain in 30 minutes. After a 10 minute break in the warming hut, we tracked around the top a bit, schlussed and strode down the back of the mountain and dragged my rubber-legged, 42.98 year-old carcass to the car. Our timing was perfect: We (querrelle too) had a bite to eat before toneyvr bit us adieu.

OMG I went to fil the bath and a ginormous* spider was on the tap--centimetres away from my hand! *shriek*

*fuck you. to an arachnaphobe a teeny tiny spider is ginormous

I used to like those because they ate the cockroaches (I had a sloppy housemate who never, ever cleaned up after herself... so cockroaches were sadly a feature of our house). I can put up with massive killer huntsmans if it means no cockroaches spreading filth around the kitchen.

I must confess, it is a little disconcerting when the glass you have grabbed to trap the spider (for removal to the garden)is too small to contain all the legs.

Growing up in NYC I am obsessed with keeping the kitchen and bathroom clean because of roaches. I hear ya.

Yeah, they seemed to be a feature of life in QLD, too. The climate must have suited them. As a result, I too am obsessive about the kitchen and bathroom being clean. Needless to say, I only lasted a year with the sloppy housemate.
