The glamour: Cleaning of the new place, some OWW work.

Up super early this morning -- okay, not super early. Up earlier than my accustomed weekend hour this morning to get the keys to the new apartment and do a moderately serious scrubdown. There is something wonderful about cleaning your new Edwardian windows and mantels and fireplace tiles and chattering with your new roommate while the radio plays a string of really solid bouncy headbangy music, and everything outside is bright and green and summer sunshine through the leaves.
After that we hit Caplansky's for breakfast-for-lunch (eggs, challah toast, beef bacon, latkes, cinnamon applesauce; this is a fifteen-minute walk from the new place. Dooooomed.) and since I have come home, taken a nice cool shower, finished a small workshop project, and written fiction.
I gotta say: Today has been immensely satisfying. I don't know whose life I've wandered into lately, but I hope they don't show up and ask for it back. I'll lick the thing if I have to.
And now there is a birthday dinner to attend, so I must go prove that I actually clean up okay, and put up my hair, and and and.

Also, missing WisCon. Pout. But there will be Readercon! and WFC! (and maybe WHC! next year). This is a soothing thought.
