angelakOH MY GODS.
Tonight was fabulous. I have totally been useful!
The meeting cut out short (all of the sudden) and they finished a whole 30 minutes early, instead of the hour or so late, that I am accustomed to with these PPC meetings.
SOOOOOO. I was stoaked. I drove to Redmond where I know there's a Brown Bear carwash and decided to finish cleaning out my car. After work, as I accidentally, worked through my lunch... (busy busy busy at work today, sheesh.) This is day #2 of accidentally doing this.
Okay, fine whatever. I flex whenever I do this. (oops, did I sleep in and not come in until 7:30?) etc etc. Actually - that was rather intentional.
Moving on. I got off early, at 5 - (I definitely knew I'd better take a break, as the PPC meeting was beginning at 6:30, and typically it takes a bit of set up. (turn on the mics, make sure the projector is working properly, get my cameras in order, make sure the video toaster is all set and not going to bail on me at the last minute or or or or jeah.)
So anyhow, this enabled me to clean out my back hatch in DAYLIGHT (wow) and so that was awesome.
THE OTHER FREAKING AWESOME SURPRISE IS THAT I FOUND MY HIKING BOOTS!!!!!!!!!
Sorry - folks. This is great.
So - this post is jumping around. I'm just so stoaked.
I was able to vacuum Joe out and though I wanted to shampoo the carpets, the shampoo function at Brown Bear at their station was out of order. This bummed me out for a moment, and then I got over it. There's always later, after all. Because my car is NOT going to turn into the slob-hole that it was.
NO.
SOOoooo. I finally got floormats for the car, as the old ones were non-existant.
I got some inexpensive ones that I liked better than the other nicer ones.
I still hate myself for leaving my brand new at the time - floor mats in Black Beauty... what can I say. I had chosen those out just for me (the girl who loves to drive bare-footed, and used to do it ALL year long.)
Whatever. Win some, ya lose some.
At least Black Beauty is still around.
The biggest happiest task of the night about cleaning the car was taking out the whole center console and getting the melted candle out of the little dandy tray.
This was a gross task. But this was the aspect of my car that really kinda made me feel bad.
So the excitement is that it's ENTIRELY clean, the cup-holder/center tray is clean. The back hatch is clean. And I decided I am going to find a way to keep it this way - I have new storage tubs to keep my crap all in one place, instead of sliding all around under my seats and throwing them aimlessly back into the back hatch, causing mayhem.
So I found some tubs at Fred Meyer that were on sale for cheap and I was like YEAY.
I'm very happy with the state of affairs.
Both my house AND my car, are clean at the SAME time.
THIS very much makes my Virgo happy. *smirks*
And this means to all y'all who I told would have to wait until I cleaned out my car to ride in my car: the next time the opportunity arises, that can happen. Cause my car isn't gross anymore!
*beams*
And now to finish the laundry, do the dishes, love my doggies, and ...
*shrugs* Sleep eventually.
It's almost FRIDAY! I am going to have an AWESOME weekend.
You watch me.
