Someday, Sunday

[howeverbrief]

Hmm... A few things--

1. I'm no scientist. You all know that. Still, this is getting on my nerves a bit. About a year ago, when it was snowing a lot all over the country, a fair number of people I'm friends with on facebook posted about how all the cold temperatures and inclement weather somehow disproved global warming. Now that we're facing one of the oddest and warmest winters we've had in quite a while (seriously, I shouldn't be able to walk outside in just a sweatshirt this time of year), I don't see anyone talking about it beyond, "What warm weather we're having." Yeah, because extreme temperature shifts from year to year don't point to something being massively wrong with our ecosystem. Of course not!

2. My house smells like coffee. Why did I buy coffee when I don't drink it or have a coffee maker? I have secrets!

3. I'm looking forward to Mike's visit on Wednesday through President's day, but I'm also very nervous about it. Mike my out-of-state friend, not Mike my brother. Who's Mike? Am I ever going to explain how we met or why he's coming here? Uh... There aren't a whole lot of ways I can tell that story without coming off as a weird creep, so I don't know. (EDIT: Well, to be fair, why he's coming is pretty cute, so I might make an attempt later on. ;) I'm still pretty awesome, though. It's all fine.

I thought I had more, but I've run out of things to say. That's okay. Three is a magic number, you know. At least, School House Rock seemed to think so.

Anyway, my relative muteness might be from my cleaning bonanza yesterday, which left me tired, sore and devoid of motivation this morning. Woo hoo. I still managed to finish cleaning and go grocery shopping today, though, so that's a plus. Still, I think I'm going to go sit around and watch TV until it's time to make dinner. I've done enough this weekend. Time to lazy it up before I have to go back to work tomorrow. What are Sundays for anyway?

1) Classic confirmation bias. The weather now does point more obviously to global *warming,* so of course no one wants to address the connection. I'm kind of annoyed Weather.com has a social media comment option now. The idiocy in the comments staggers me.

2) You just like the smell? Or someone is coming who drinks it?

Oh good lord, do they really? That's a horrifying idea. Just because people can comment on anything on the internet doesn't mean they should!

And I was mostly just being silly. Haha. I do like the smell of coffee, but I very rarely drink it. That's mostly a nice side effect. Actually, I bought it because I was making something with it. I'm a little disappointed with how it turned out, but oh well!

You can borrow my French press to make coffee. :)

Aw, man! I do love French press coffee. So tasty.
