awake. why am i awake?
came home cranked to go to heavy list practice. I had some free time so I decided to tackle my ground tarp from Pennsic (yeah I hadn't gotten to it yet). It was covered in a fine layer of dirt and peat moss from all the rain and had a nice rich organic smell. I don't have a garden hose, living on the 3rd floor, so I decided to rinse it down in the bath tub since it didn't seem to have too much dirt on it. Appearances can be decieving. My bath tub water turned murky brown.
A nice level of sediment appeared artistically arrayed across the bottom of the tub. It was neat in the fact it looked like a photograph of sand including contours etc. I rinsed most of the tub out and got the tarp somewhat cleaner.
I had some free time still so I went into my bedroom and sat down. The next thing I knew it was 6:15 and it felt like it should be morning. I was too tired to get up...I resurfaced from sleep again at 7:30 or so and then finally at 4:30 this morning. Still feel a bit tired. I suspect I needed the rest and that the tarp might have had something I was allergic to on it. le sigh. no beaties for me.
I've since taken the tarp onto my porch and done another once over on the bath. It will still need another clean or so...but most of the dirt is gone.
