    Daylight is dandy, but sunshine shows dust

    posted Friday, 18 November 2005

    I'm was semi-typically Swedish today in that I left the office early on a Friday afternoon (the "typical" part), but I only did so in order to do some much-needed phone work on the Stockholm guide fact check (which accounts for the qualifying "semi" part). Not the funnest way to spend a sunny afternoon, but necessary.

    But it was kind of novel to be out and about in the daylight. For the last couple weeks it's been dark when I leave for work and dark when I get home, so it was a real treat to not to have to juggle lights on the bike for once. But it was not a treat to see the apartment in broad daylight. I'm afraid that Dr. Darling and I have been so busy with the Guide lately that we've let many of our normal domestic chores slide, and this place is a real PIT at the moment. Fortunately neither one of us is allergic to dust.

    How funny! I was thinking that I was the only one.... In Korea there is no carpeting but in it's place a kind of wooden floor going on. This is great from a visual point of view as long as it's cleaned virtually every hour!

    I used to think that the Asian practise of removing shoes before entering a house was a cute old tradition but it really is necessary with this flooring - grrrrrr - tomorrow is my day for hands and knees and towel cleaning the bloody floor - and it's amazing the amount of dust and body hair that is shed - despite the fact that I'm not hairy.

    I sometimes wonder if I've had a visitation from Godzilla during the night that I can't recall - Have a lovely weekend - don't worry about the dust - ashes to ashes and all that....Si xx
