Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I got up at 6am today. I never get up at 6am.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I got up just before 7 AM. That's with a 2 hour insomnia break in the middle of the night, where I listed 30 books on BookMooch.

I now have a 40 item shelf of unread books -- not that I didn't have them before, but now they're all in one place, oppressing me with their unreadness. Still, 40 unread out of 261 listed isn't obscene, is it? Also, because my unread books mostly tend to lurk up here in the office, whereas the bulk of my read books tend to be downstairs, the ratio may be extremely skewed at this point.

I'm pathetically excited at the idea that I'll actually have my library enumerated. I've never had a good count of what I've got.

Oh CRAP! My plan to go out grocery shopping early this morning and maybe buy a printer in the afternoon is going to go afoul of the fact that it's EASTER, isn't it?

Even, since I'm unemployed, I can go tomorrow morning after rush hour is over, doesn't make up for the annoyance. Feh.

Yeah, I just realised I have no coffee and chocolate, and the shops are likely closed outside. And tomorrow, too, as bank holiday here.

Curse my lack of planning.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Huh. I forgot it was Easter, too. The stores I'm headed for may be open, though.

I'm running out of money. I need more money. I need to stop buying shoes.

hahahaha! Right.

Happy Easter everybody!

I know for some of you Easter means failed shopping plans, for some it means brunch with Tom Scola (wish I was going to be there, but I'm busy), for others--like me--it means seeing family and friends. And Easter baskets.

I need my morning coffee. Oy. Right now I'm wishing that I had set up the coffee maker last night, but I didn't because I was elbow deep in grading. I hate setting it up in the morning because of the whole not-had-my-coffee-yet part of it.

I'm about to go outside with the vague hope I can find an open shop for essentials (ie caffeine and chocolate goodness). If I can't find anywhere I may resort to begging.

~ma to Grace, Noah, and Kat.

Happy Easter to everybody!

Of course, I'm spending Easter catching up with everything I put off while interviewing this week.

At least this means Lent is finally over. Yeah alcohol!

I'll be sending love, prayers, and vibes to Grace and Noah.

My son is trying to put together one of his toy train sets. Should I be scared that, at two, he's actually can do it?
