Spent a good chunk of my afternoon on Friday cleaning out bookcases in my office at work and thought the urge to clean would carry over into the weekend. Unfortunately that was not the case.

I just can’t get motivated to do much of anything once I get home. Whatever time I have available I spend watching CNN or MSNBC or reading political blogs. I’ve seen or read most everything out there at this point so turned on the Dodgers/Phillies playoff game. At least I’ll know what happened tomorrow when the people at work ask if I saw the game.

Decided not to put the trash cans out tonight since I don’t have lots of trash in them and since Santa Ana winds are predicted tonight up to 50 mph. I’d rather wait until next week to put out the cans than have them blow all over the neighborhood ’cause there’s not enough in them to keep them in front of my house. Hopefully my patio furniture won’t be in the pool tomorrow morning. The winds are supposed to continue through Wednesday. Thank God my gardener comes on Thursday.

I did clean up my address book while watching tv this afternoon. Everytime I get someone’s phone number or address I just stuff it in the front of the book. I had more bits of paper and cards in the front of the book than the book could hold. And it was dreadful every time I needed to find a number. So the book is finally updated and I was able to toss lots.

Guess I’ll finish up the evening doing some laundry and loading the dishwasher. How exciting.
