plastic wrapped

D. and I have been applying "budget insulation" (read: pallet wrap) to the windows in fits and starts for the past week or so. Fits and starts because 1) it's a bitch to work with (only slightly heavier than saran wrap, it clings to itself in all the wrong places/times in just the same way), and 2) the occasional fits of warm weather is a strong disincentive.

Because even though it's not pretty, it DOES work! We wrapped most of the upstairs windows last week and when it got warm this weekend the bedroom was like an oven (80F when not running the heat). Given the predicted warm weather again this weekend, I'm reluctant to go to the frustrating effort if we're going to need to tear it down to open the windows, but when it does get cold it's going to save us $ on the heat bill. Decisions, decisions...

speaking of pallet wrap... [bdsm]

Messing with this stuff has highlighted the possible mummification/binding possibilities :P It's not my particular cup of tea to wrap or be wrapped, but there it is.

This Friday I'm going to go to a women's party at this venue affiliated with this event (neither site worksafe). It's my first time to this club for a (semi?) public event but strangely I am not nervous - I know I'll be in good company.

I'm planning on carpooling as I'm nervous about the possiblity of getting lost because the club isn't in the greatest neighborhood.

This is the first time I've been to a club in... I dunno, a couple of years (do the nearly empty goth nights in Philly a couple of years back count?) so I suppose I should think of something "special" to wear. I'm thinking Farscape duster and New Rocks, if the weather permits.

Anyone else going to be there?

A (possibly belated) happy birthday to tommdroid!
