I encompass infinities

You do? Do all women can? Nobody told me about that! Again, I feel deprived. I wonder if this infinities thing has to do with that "star" thing.

hiya Nilly. you are up late again.

It's a secret, Nilly. Your mom's such a slacker!!! You didn't have the "Encompassing Infinties" ceremony when you had your first period?

Tsk, tsk. Your mom's gonna get a Female Citation!

msbelle, yup. But I slept for the most part of the shabbat (kept falling asleep in front of my poor roommate), and the deadline is tomorrow morning. So at least it'll be over after that.

All I got was a stomach ache. And it wasn't an infinite ache (even though it was quite a large one).

Well, darn it. Your mom has a lot to answer for! There's a Red Dot(ters) of the Infiinte Compass chapter in your area. It's non-secular; she has NO EXCUSES!

Well, she was pretty busy at the time. Maybe she thought that if it were infinite, no time was too late for it?

[Edited because there's no such thing as "tool late".]

msbelle, what did mac think of the library?

Nilly, glad you got some sleep catch up (shabbat was the word I was looking for when I used sabbath instead. I'm actually more used to using shabbat than sabbath in the jewish context, which is why it felt like the wrong word.)

I am eating carne asada from TJ's over a bed of lettuce and guac. It was supposed to be in a tortilla, but I discovered I had none.

I spent the afternoon transfering (and shredding. Oh god, the shredding) my records and whatnot from accordian things to hanging files in a file box. Much neater. I'm usually pretty good about only keeping 1- 2 years of stuff, but apparently had missed a huge pile the last several times. Account statements from 1997. Oy.

The weather cooperating with outdoors in NYC, or was it one of those indoor play areas, msbelle?

I ought to dye my hair tonight.

OK, what is UP with, after spending hours loading music onto my computer, the public radio station I listen to get new stuff is playing a lot of stuff I have! It's weird. I've never heard Sneaker Pimps on this station before.

Hrmmph! That's taking the lazy woman's route. No, no, I"m afraid a citation is in order, and she'll have to pay a pretty hefty penance -- explaining reproductive health to a cafeteria full of 13 year old boys.

Steph - I think the amount of books overwhelmed him a bit (although he has been to a bookstore), but mostly he just wanted to get some Arthur books like we had discussed and then leave. Unfortunately, the electronic check-outs (the only option) were not cooperating, it took us three machines before we got all checked out.

sara, it was cold (about 34 degrees) but he was bundled up and stayed out about 40 minutes.

edit b/c I really can read.
