I walked to the fitness club for weights and twenty minutes on the cross-trainer, listening to the Georgette Heyer novel Black Sheep, which I read years ago and seem to have almost entirely forgotten. I bought a pair of shoes and a few spices.
When I got home, the budgies were back in their cage, looking well-behaved and virtuous. I wondered if they'd broken something and were trying to hide it, the way cats do. Or perhaps these were little green Skrull imposters who had kidnapped and replaced my rowdy little guys.
I shut the cage door, and then gave them their favourite treat: baby bok choy. Even better than millet.
Still listening to Georgette Heyer, I cleaned the cupboard under the bathroom sink and found numerous bottles of shower gel, shampoo and conditioner that I'd forgotten about. I must have got a quantity at Costco or something. I also found some rather lovely rose-scented oil. That job somehow escalated into cleaning out half of the hall closet. So it goes.
