Good Times

This morning started out great when, for the second time in as many days I found myself locked out of the house having accidentally locked the security door to the little backyard. Alcohol was involved Tuesday night when it happened, but it was no big deal because I just went around to the otherside and walked back in. This morning I wasn't so lucky because both the security door and the regular door were locked on the front of the house. I only ever lock the security door when I want to keep Randi and Earl out, so I was a bit dismayed when I realized that I didn't actually have the right key for the front security door hidden in my secret key spot. And I didn't even have my glasses on. And I was in my underwear. And it was 5:30am. I tried to break in by taking off the screen on the window, but a year ago I put caulking around all the screens in an effort to keep out some dust. Brilliant. So then I had to break in using a different method, which I won't describe in case anyone else wants to break using the same method. It was spectacular because Sarah was inside the house and stood at the security door looking at me like "WTF?" I've since hidden the key outside. Only the ducks know where. Good luck getting those guys to say where.

So far my vacation has been taken up with the following daily activities:

8-10 hours: sleeping
1-3 hours: biking and post-bike breakfast and bullshit
1 hour: picking up because someone keeps making a damn mess in my kitchen and living room
3-6 hours: World Cup Soccer
5-6 hours: quilting and simultaneously watching TV
15 minutes: thinking about how I should pick up weeds outside with an occasional 20 minutes actually doing something about it
15 minutes: looking at the pool and wondering why the water is still not clear
2-3 hours: watching truly stupid television
2-4 hours: reading

I'm looking forward to the start of the Tour DE France next week because then I can add 3-4 hours of watching cycling everyday!!
