Oh what a lovely brunch!

ljtourist treated me to brunch at Dahlia's Lounge this morning and it was really really nice. Good food and great visit. Then I had the perfect walk home. It is the perfect walking temperature with nearly no wind. Really nice.

And I made it home alive. I've gotten into the habit of cleaning up the kitchen before I go out and it dawned on me the other day that in my twisted mind, this is the equivalent of a living prophylactic.

If I were to die while I was out, I'd be so embarrassed to have Ann and Ron and my brother and sister-in-law (all likely suspects to be in here first) come in to find a dirty kitchen. The rest of the house stays tidy most of the time but the kitchen seems to attract mess. So I figure that if I keep it cleaned up, especially, when I go out, my chances of not dying go up*.

Today it was not clean when I left. Living on the edge, that's me. I'm gong to clean it up now, do a couple of more house things and then watch CBS Sunday morning.

The other thing is to work on my work attitude. I'm thinking if I clear the emotional brain decks before the day starts, I have a better shot at not letting Ms. Irritation get to me. I'm going to try that anyway.

*For the record, I'm ok with dying - but why rush it?

I feel so much better knowing that once I fly to Seattle to do whatever needs being done when you die (setting up the party with Matthew, etc) I won't have to also deal with a dirty kitchen. What a load off my mind.

As I live to serve, I also want to be sure when I die to carry the banner as well...

I'm glad you had such a great time! I had a blast as well; we'll have to go out again sometime. I still need to try the Georgian (though I know you're headed there again with seattlejo there this weekend).

You do pay remarkable attention. I'll ask this weekend about when they will have their kitchen open again. We should plan for then.
