Woke up and walked, and Leslie worked and I came back home and went back to work on the studio. I took everything out of the drawers of the little desk, and it was all in the middle of the floor, then I took the desk out and put it in Leslie’s office. Then I stared at all the stuff on the floor for a while, and I realized there was nowhere to put it without the desk, so I dragged it back in from Leslie’s office. Then I cleaned out the writing desk and threw away a lot of junk. I found my copy of theOblique Stategies, and the card that was on top said “Tidy Up” so that’s what i was doing. They are a great tool that I had forgotten about, but very useful when working. Talked to Leslie on the phone and she didn’t have any patients. Not patience, patients! So we talked for a while and it was kind of a nice, rainy, overcast day, and the heat finally broke. The studio feels so much better with nothing in it, and I started listening to some Portuguese music, and Leslie speaks Portuguese, and it just sings so much better than Spanish. I feel really inspired now that the space is getting more organized. I thrive on organization. Then I took the dogs to the library with my mom, and she found a garden tool on the ground and gave it to me. One of those weed-puller things that looks like a snake’s tongue. Then Leslie called and we agreed to meet for Lasagna at Piza Perfect and it was a good dinner. Leslie was wondering about whether or not people who didn’t know how to read or write, and had been doing manual labor since they were 4 years old could benefit from watching “the secret”. Who knows? But she did order a couple copies and Jessica said she wanted to watch it, so maybe we will have another party soon. Oh and I forgot, I wrote some interview questions for Jessica, and she came by and picked them up, for that “Stalking the Muse” site. Went home and we watched an On-Demand episode of “Coupling”, the BBC show, and it’s funny.
