It has remained sunny today, which is a nice change. We've been under a "Whatever" forecast for about two weeks. This is the weather report that contains a sun, a cloud, and lightning bolts. Every morning we have brief sunshine, and every afternoon it rains. Then stops raining for a couple of hours. Then rains again. It's impossible to plan anything outdoors, or even to take a walk, because in fifteen minutes Wet Death 2004 could arrive. Evan hasn't been able to work on his truck because the barn where he works on it is completely waterlogged. So frustrating.

At last all my work for the day is done. It's been a busy couple of days. We just had our June birthdays party- it was my month to pick up the cake and ice cream. Tonight Evan's taking me to dinner at Wang's on Beale, our favorite deceptively fancy restaurant (it looks fancy but is actually very affordable). If the weather stays clear, maybe we can take a walk by the river afterwards. :) Many other exciting things are in store for the weekend, like new furniture. Yay!

This week with Kathy has been great. I feel like we'll part as roommates on very good terms. I'm no longer scared that she'll never speak to me again once she moves. The closer it gets to moving time, the more stuff she gives me. Now she's leaving me the rug in her room, which will look very nice with the futon. :) What will my "new" apartment look like? The suspense!

I look skinny today. Maybe all the salsa-ing is working! I've also been working on my own version of my sister's Limited Desserts Plan. When she went off to college, she decided she was only allowed two desserts a week. Frankly, the idea of only two a week makes me want to cry, so I'm trying every other day instead. The problem is that I can't decide what constitutes a dessert- fruit? a Pop-Tart?- so it hasn't been going too smoothly. I can pretend it's making a difference, though.

Have a good weekend, everybody!
