ksmithTuesday. Ok.
Yesterday, Kuro's Check Engine light went on and stayed on, even though the gas tank was full and the cap was cranked down so hard that I have trouble opening it. I'll be taking him in for service on Thursday. I hope it's the cap or a hose, something simple and cheap.
I spent part of the evening culling the closet for a clothing drive. One purse, five pairs of shoes, and many clothes later--jeans. khakis, and a couple of casual suits--I have more room in the closet, but it's still a mess, filled with things that are ok-but-not-great and a few things I wear to death. I know the rule is that you should get rid of clothes/shoes if you haven't worn them in a year, and I'm actively breaking that one. I have things I haven't worn in 5-6 years or more, dress suits that are classic enough to still be in style but that I need to lose weight to fit into. So I'll lose 15 pounds, try them on, and if they fit,then I'll decide to get rid of them. It's like I can't let them have the last laugh. I'll get rid of them because I want to, not because I have to.
Yeah, I know. The line for that neurosis forms over there.
Still haven't started on tax stuff. The goal is to ship it out on Monday. I could start tonight, and do a little at a time, and be done. Or I could wait until Friday night and add that frisson of irritated panic to the mix. Guess which option I'll pick?
