Apr. 25th, 2011 03:49 pmAh, silence.
The apartment is now empty of guests for the first time in well over a week. The kitchen has a few plastic bags of empty beer cans, and I keep stumbling across empty chocolate egg wrappings. The signs of an easter holiday well-spent.
I'm exhausted, but quite pleased. Zooling Hilde came over from Sweden for a visit. (With her new boyfriend, whose name translates into English as "Elves". The Legolas-jokes were a source of infinite amusement.) And once they'd left, Gabriel (who is my ex and an actual person, and not a Trickster) and Arwena came over for a few nights. We did all the usual things, and the weather gods were benevolent. There really is nothing quite like seeing old friends.
I think spring has properly arrived now.
Littlest flatmate,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lillannan cleared out the backyard, and now it actually looks nice for the first time in two or three years. I may have burned my nose in the sun while I was out there, but I can't bring myself to even be annoyed. Or, hell, I'm hoping I burned my nose. That would mean that the sun is getting bright and warm again. Really, properly warm, and not just pale yellow light.
I love the summer. I hate accompanying bugs with a passion, but I love the heat. Not the sub-nordic heat that people get in Europe, mind you, no. Above 22 C, well below 27 C, that's perfect. It doesn't happen that often that we actually reach those temperatures for more than a few short weeks in July, but the anticipation is half the fun.
( I had a dream about how I watch too much TV )
