Not as organized as I thought

OK, clearly, Joshua was the one who kept our little household going. I just cleaned the place for the first time since July and only because I was expecting company (granted I have been out of town most of the summer, but still). I have clutter everywhere. I'm down to doing the dishes once every day or two - don't tell Mabel! I'm perpetually late; the worst was when I arrived at a friend's barbeque an HOUR late. I occassionally forget to feed Jackson in the evening. And, I just realized I've forgotten which button to push to buzz people into the building. So if you come to visit, you'll need to wait in the freezing wind for me to come down six flights of stairs to let you in. I have yet to re-hang pictures in the bedroom and my summer goals of getting the closets cleaned out and scanning all of Joshua's slides are far from getting accomplished.

But I did have a fabulous time in Hawaii doing essentially nothing. Have a pretty good tan, too, and had so much fun spending time with Jason and Kathleen. They have the ultimate cushy job of performing three shows a week with Norwegian Cruise Lines while sailing around the Hawaiian islands.

One of these days I have to start job hunting, because the CIA pension fund doesn't seem to be coming through (Joshua's family will understand this reference). First, though, I'll be making a trip to New York to goof off some more, visit friends and hopefully see some great dance concerts. The weather should be perfect, September being one of the best months of the year.
