Saturday, March 21st, 2026 08:18 pmGarage tenant comes round early so I get up the nerve to ask him to flip my futon. Nerving necessary because ingrained cultural training of 'place is a mess, don't let anyone see it.' (Japanese students would ask me what was the English equivalent of the Japanese set phrase asking person in. Used to say, not entirely kidding, 'The place is a mess' because that really is what we always say.) Flipping the futon doesn't make as much difference as I thought it would-- the thing still sags whichever side is up-- but it does help.
Tree people all want to come in the morning. Have another coming next Saturday at 10. Must stop the hurkledurkling I do because out of bed at noon does not help. But must also bump thermostat to uncomfortable highs because it's waking in the cold that makes me not want to get out of bed. Well, that and the delightful dreams I have when I go back to sleep. This morning's involved roommates either moving in or out and a cat that might have been theirs or mine.
