All I needed was a beach and a mai tai...
Jul. 21st, 2003 09:07 am...and this weekend would have been The Perfect Vacation. I relaxed; I read (actually whittled down the number of books I'm currently reading to three); I vegged out with Michelle while she relaxed and read. She cooked for me, and it was wonderful. I even did a couple loads of laundry. Then, the perfect ending - Lex licking whipped cream off his lips. The only thing missing was a lazy afternoon at Brickhaus, sipping their endless cup of coffee - best $2 that I ever spent.
I know, I know. One of these things is not like the others. But I like doing laundry. It has a calming effect on me, like a good red wine. I'm incredibly task-oriented, and laundry has very visible, I've-gotten-something-done results. So doing laundry satisfies my anal need to accomplish something, allowing me to enjoy the rest of my day without the nagging Must...Be...Productive!!! sensation.
