Kevin's Hetero MFM Poly-Fi V

10:35 a.m., Monday the 28th

So they are here, well, at the moment they are going out with BH and SB to visit some family in Lacey and maybe do some other things. I am like a fifth wheel, everyone is nice to me but for some reason I don't quite fit in. Plus, five people in the car would be too crowded, so I naturally just stay in my room when they go out, and in general I just stay out of the way. They watched "Office Space" on our TV last night and I didn't even come out for that. Coming out for that felt too awkward to me. I hope they don't mind if I just stay out of the way, that is my contribution to this visit. BH and SB are godparents to this niece, so, more of a connection there, whereas, what am I to this niece? some old dude who lives here. I don't know why I feel like a fifth wheel, but I do.

SB is off work today because it's Memorial Day. BH normally gets Mondays off. I believe they both work tomorrow. That's really all I have to tell you right now.
 
4:29 p.m., Tuesday the 29th

So the company is gone, but some things have been left behind ... such as, the leftover port. Woohoo! The only bad part is, I was trying to get the foil off, and cut my finger. OW. I really must be more careful in the future.

Yesterday Snowbunny brought me dinner from a Thai place they ate at. What I had was quite good, it was a kind of vegetable curry, and was "three hot." Which was a nice touch.

Dinner tonight will be (bean/cheese) burritos. Tomorrow, something more fancy, possibly a curry type thing. Chicken will be marinating overnight for that.
 
5:15 p.m., Wednesday the 30th

I think it's some kind of Indian curry. SB just told BH that it will take awhile. I'm looking forward to it, I'm hungry! Trying not to eat and spoil my appetite.

Having a hard time catching up on my internet stuff today. I have been tired and have laid down a couple of times. I might not get to my Facebook stuff, we'll have to see.

The high on the 1st of June will be 64°. Curses! There is only one day in the forecast that gets up to 70° (73°). I'll open my window on that day.
 
3:05 p.m., Thursday the 31st

I actually opened my window for a short time today. Even though it's only 61° out there. You see, I walked to Safeway and bought a bottle of Christian Brothers port. Less than $8.00, I had enough in my wallet. After I got home I was a little heated up from walking, so, I opened my window for a short time.

Last night, after a hockey game ended, BH and I watched S4E6: "Black Museum," the last of Black Mirror. I don't know if there will be any more Black Mirror seasons/episodes in the future. I heard that there wouldn't be. Anyway, this episode was pretty good, possibly BH's fave. It involved three stories, one about a doctor who could feel other people's physical pain, one about a woman who was in a coma and her consciousness was uploaded into her husband's brain, and one about a prisoner on death row whose consciousness was uploaded into the black museum. I don't want to spoil the plot so that's all I'll say. Very good episode. The one about the doctor was so macabre ... and I'm already spoiling it, so. Watch all the Black Mirror seasons/episodes, I recommend them.

I'm behind on my Facebook stuff, we'll have to see if I catch up today. The dinner last night was good, quite good. Not sure what we're having for dinner tonight.
 
11:59 a.m., Friday the 1st

We had Campbell's clam chowder and sourdough bread, not bad. After dinner, BH and I resumed rewatching Stranger Things. We watched S1E4, "The Body," we had already rewatched the first three episodes before starting Black Mirror.

The outdoor temp is 59° right now, today's high will be 68°. Tomorrow it's supposed to get up to 76°, I am thinking I will open my window.

Both of the cats are right next to me. Rainee is adjacent to my computer.
 
11:53 a.m., Sunday the 3rd

Yesterday, SB and I spent some time with Neighbor Guy Friend, hanging out, chatting, and we went out for a bite to eat at a nearby place called the Uptown Lounge. Today, BH, SB, and I might join him again to go to a nursery or two and look for a couple of replacement plants (for our outdoor decor).

For some reason I feel extra stressed-out today. Like there's a knot in the pit of my stomach. No idea what's causing it, it's just something that happens to me from time to time.
 
12:19 p.m., Monday the 4th

So, we did not end up going to the nursery. We did however talk with NGF for awhile. It started raining, which I think is one reason why our nursery plans were canceled. It is supposed to rain today as well although it doesn't look like it will at the moment. It is 59° at the moment.

Last night, after dinner, BH and I watched (rewatched) S1E5 of Stranger Things (The Flea and the Acrobat). I was surprised, there were many parts I didn't remember. It's good that we watched it (again).
 
2:10 p.m., Tuesday the 5th

BH was off yesterday. A little after SB got home, the three of us went on a walk together. A little over three miles round trip, done mostly for the exercise, although with some chit-chat along the way, on a path for bikes and walkers, mostly in pleasant surroundings and shady. After we got home, SB prepared some leftovers for dinner. BH made some small salads for us. With beets and feta cheese. I like feta cheese! and beets are okay I guess. A hockey game was on and BH watched that. No episodes.

Outdoor temp: 65°. It's supposed to get up to 68° today. Tomorrow's supposed to get up to 76°, no clouds. I'll definitely open the windows. Thus and so is today's riport.
 
2:29 p.m., Wednesday the 6th

Great weather today, 71° now and will get up to 75°, the windows are open. Rainee is relaxing on the cushion by me and my window, Lady is relaxing under my bed.

Dinner last night was pizza, yay. We got it from Casa Mia. They have a meatless cheese pizza with this big thick layer of cheese. So good.

After dinner, BH and I watched an episode. S1E6, The Monster.
 
11:10 a.m., Thursday the 7th

Today, and probably tomorrow, the contractors are here, working on our backroom. That room has a very high ceiling and I think one of the things they are doing is building a loft. To keep dust from spreading throughout the house, and probably to make sure the cats stay safely indoors, the back part of the house is sealed off (with sections of tarp). BH and SB moved a bunch of stuff from back there to this (front) part of the house last night. The backroom has a door to the outside, so that is how the contractors are accessing that room.

They seem like nice guys, but my stress levels are elevated, fear of the unknown. Also I don't know if this is related, but around midnight or so last night I was awake with a painful (really painful) stomach cramp. It came and went. Finally it went. That was a relief. It hasn't come back.

That's all I have to tell you for the moment.
 
3:13 p.m., Friday the 8th

So, the contractors got done a short while ago, and have gone away. The work looks good. From what Snowbunny has said, it sounds like the (newly-built) loft will be used as a storage area, though I thought it would be fun to have a bed up there. Not a big deal either way.

It's 58° out and raining. Tomorrow and Sunday will be similar. Then we'll have five dry days, partly cloudy, with highs of 68°-76°. Thus and so is my riport for today.
 
10:39 a.m., Sunday the 10th

Snowbunny has a couple of camping trips coming up, so yesterday, she and I went to Cabela's. She in particular invested in a stronger fishing pole (50-90 lbs I think), for both fishing and crabbing. We ate out at Sonic and shopped at our local Safeway.

She had to work from home last night and was up late (not sure how late), so she is still in bed this morning. I'm not sure what the plans will be today, probably nothing special. Brother-Husband and I watched another episode last night, S1E7, "The Bathtub."
 
I have to ask. What does Snowbunny do while you and Brother-Husband watch shows? Is she working? Watching too? Doing her own thing?

Yes, I'm being nosy. Feel free to tell me to mind my own business.
 
Snowbunny does stuff on her computer. Facebook or research on stuff, such as genealogy, Snowbunny does a lot of genealogy research. Sometimes she works at home, credit union stuff.

She doesn't have as much interest in watching stuff as Brother-Husband and I have. Stranger Things is a prime example, she got turned off by the first few episodes, and that effect is pretty much permanent. But other shows too, she pretty much wants to do her own thing.

I don't know exactly what she works on, I don't ask her. But I think it's mostly Facebook, genealogy, and general research. Stuff on her computer.

There's a few shows that she's watched with us. Sons of Anarchy, Orange Is the New Black. Once in awhile we talk her into it.
 
5:55 p.m., Tuesday the 12th

The contractors came over today, to do some work on the outside of the house. Also they looked at the backroom, where they will eventually build a ladder for the loft.

Last night, BH and I watched the last episode of Season One (Stranger Things). Not sure whether we will watch anything today, it was BH's first day back at work and he might be tired.

Current temp: 68°. Supposedly it rained today, but I have my doubts. I did open the windows today. The next three days will only get up into the 60's; after that it will warm up in a huge way.
 
4:41 p.m., Wednesday the 13th

No episodes. BH was tired.

Current temp: 62°. Tomorrow the high will be 66°. 69° on Friday. Then, 77° on Saturday and every day will be warmer until next Wednesday: 89°. D'oh!

Today, in the freezer, I encountered a bottle of Jim Bean's Devil's Cut. I rejoiced, and helped myself to more than half a cup. Please don't crucify!
 
5:41 p.m., Thursday the 14th

Today is the wedding anniversary of BH and SB. They are currently eating out at a restaurant, probably the new Thai place in town. I had to stay home obviously, but they will bring me takeout.

Today, for reasons unknown, I have been more stressed out than usual. I don't think it has anything to do with the anniversary, although anything's possible when the stress seems to be coming at you from all directions. Which is what happens to me, it just comes in waves sometimes. Things will get better, I'm already feeling a little better. But it has been a stressful day.

Current temp: 63°. Tomorrow will get up to 70°, Saturday 76°, then the rest of the forecast gets up into the mid to upper 80's. Jeezh, can't we have a little more in between? I'm just saying.
 
5:10 p.m., Friday the 15th

The takeout yesterday was very good. Yellow curry ... with tofu and veggies, such as potatoes. 3½ spicy ... which wasn't that hot, I think next time I'll try 4 spicy.

No episodes. Probably none tonight either, but we'll see.

An ant has been in here. I didn't have the heart to smash it, even when it invaded my keyboard. Now a gnat, that would be a different story.
