thebratqueenIt was warm here in the land of Siam. Now that I'm drying laundry outside, I look at hot days a bit differently. Before it was a sort of "Crap, hot" reaction. Now it's "Crap, hot. Well at least I can make the heat my bitch." I hung up sheets and towels and such before leaving for lunch (Japanese) followed by antiquing (beautiful and sadly expensive) and by the time I got back they were bone dry. That's pretty good service.
I also used my clothespin bag. It worked perfectly! It was just the right height to reach into as I was hanging things up and it didn't fall or anything like that while I used it. Woohoo!
In other news my Spanish lessons continue nicely. I am by no means fluent but I'm starting to recognize some things when I see them in the wild, as it were. To help encourage me I bought a copy of Freakanomics in Spanish. I imagine this is going to be extremely slow reading, but I'm proud to say I was at least able to get my way through the blurb on the back without having to hit a Spanish/English dictionary.
