So, tomorrow is my birthday. YAY! I don't have too solid of plans, maybe drinks or dinner after work with some coworkers. Mary and I will be seeing Iron Man 2 at 10:00pm though! I'm super excited! I've been wanting to see it since it came out, but haven't had the time.
Thursday, I'm going to finish cleaning out my life. Yesterday I started a massive cleaning overhaul of my apartment. I cleaned out and reorganized my closet. I have two trash bags full of clothes and bags, but I couldn't bear to part with any shoes. I did all my laundry, including towels, robes, and sheets. I cleaned my room, reorganized my drawers, dusted (including the fan and baseboards), and vacuumed. I also cleaned out my bathroom and bleached just about every square inch of it. Tonight I swept and mopped my bathroom and kitchen floors, and after I write this, I'm going to go clean out my cabinets and fridge. I really need to scrub the countertops and stove, and I'll wash the silverware trays and utensil crocks. I also need to wipe down my microwave, toaster oven, crock pot, and clean those little dishes under the heating elements on the stove as well. This is turning into my to-do list! I probably won't get all that done tonight. I also need to clean up my living room, reorganize my desk, move my bookshelf, hang picture frames, and dust and vacuum. And then I need to clean out my car...
It feels so nice to have a "clean template" to start from. I'm always less stressed when everything is clean and orderly. I guess that makes me Type A, bordering on OCD. But since we're leaving Sunday morning for Disney, I'm driving home Saturday night. And I don't want to come back from vacation stressed about cleaning up or getting things in order. When I come back, I want my apartment to be spotless, bills paid, all laundry done (except for Disney clothes). Now if only I could come back to a stocked fridge...
But I've got to get all the cleaning done Thursday, because Friday night is Pete's! Haven't been to Pete's in awhile, so I'm kinda excited! It's also been a bit since I went downtown, especially on a weekend night. I just don't want to be embarrassed...
All in all, this looks like it will be a great week before Disney. AND THEN I GET TO GO TO DISNEY WORLD!
PS - As an addendum to my previous post, Hulu has decided to keep all episodes of Stargate:SG-1 up until January 2011. Yay! I don't have to race through them and then eat up all my Netflix queue! It's good because in the three weeks that I've been trying to finish five seasons, I've only made it through 2.5. Now I've got several more months!
