Productive day.

Woke up as usual to the radio.

Got the bug up my ass that I *need* to start *moving*, regardless whether this that or whatever is still kind of up in the air. I can't prepare to move in my apartment during the weekdays 'cause they're still doing demolition and concrete work and other nerve-grating things where I actually live.

Made major progress on the kitchen. Doesn't look like it, maybe, but I did. fixed up the kitchen table a bit and stripped labels from all my "Atlas" jars, which number 29. Got rid of loads and loads of garbage. Cleaned the catbox. Realized that not having a shredder is holding me back.

Went out to get one. To Costco. They wanted 80 bucks. Picked up a ton of baking soda and some other things -- batteries, toothbrushes -- then when stuck in the massive line remembered to ask whether they took regular Visa cards. They did not. I walked out. They lost a $140 sale and a customer. Oh well.

Then to Target. Got just a shredder. Cost fifty bucks. Yeah it's not as powerful or as fast as the one at Costco but it does just as well.

Shredded a whole boxful of papers. Good thing to have on hand.
