silver_chipmunkGot up this morning at 10:00, had breakfast and coffee, and called mashfanficchick. Ze said to call back at 3:00 cause ze was still sleeping.
So I took a shower and washed my hair and dressed. The I decided to change the light bulb in my living room ceiling lamp. Not the bulb I just replaced awhile ago, there's two bulbs in the lamp. Anyway, I got up on the ladder and unscrewed the knob that holds the glass dome on the lamp... and the knob slipped out of my hand and fell. No big deal, I thought, I heard it hit the floor, it can't have gone far...
I can't find it. I have searched and searched and searched, Under things, moved things, cleaned, everything, everywhere I can think that it could possibly be, I can't put the dome back on without the knob to hold it in place...
It is amazingly frustrating and annoying, I can't stop looking. I finally made myself put the ladder away and do other things til 3:00 when I called [Unknown site tag]. Ze was still sleeping but I HAD to get out of the apartment an stop looking for that knob. So I said I'd come over anyway.
Which I did. Ze was still sleeping so I let myself in and settled down and played on my phone. I ate snacks, and played solitaire. Finally at 7:00 I Teamed the FWiB and ze got up.
I got off with the FWiB at 8:00 cause there was something on TV he wanted to see, andmashfanficchick and I started planning dinner.
We decided on sushi, and ordered it, hung out til it arrived, and then ate.
After we finished we hung out for awhile more while ze got ready to spend a week cat sitting at zer friend's place.
Finally, at a bit after 11:00 I Ubered home. Where I have still been trying to figure where that knob could have gotten to.
Anyway, that was the day. I called the Kid but she didn't pick up. I got texted by someone from my Saturday meeting, which was nice.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2.mashfanficchick.
3. Clean hair.
4. Sushi.
5. The people in my meetings.
6. Bed soon.
