Hey Kristin. Sorry you overnapped.
I am reading a commentary on a fic and it's near the end. The story doesn't want to stop to breathe and so neither can I.
It's cooling off outside drastically after a warm day and I am loving the air coming in through the windows (let's ignore allergies and bless Claritin and Benedryl for the time being) tonight.
I am at least being productive. I've created a study guide for Macbeth and reread the entire play. So I got that going for me.
The breeze sounds lovely. It was ungodly hot today (90 even down by the ocean in some places!), so I too am basking in the AC.
90s? Santa Anas, I assume.
Blech.
I am doing that reading of the end where I want it to go on forever but I also want to get to the end thing. I think it is the reading equivilant of a kid that needs to pee.
Which? Remind me not to ever use that analogy in feedback. It has none of the charm of "bees".

Okay, I'm going to try for a four-hour nap before ye olde alarm goes off. Night!
Anyhoo. My kid, especially cute the past couple of days. also a moody moodihead, but cute. He picked out Mother's Day gifts for grandma and great-grandma and then wondered who was getting him stuff for Mother's Day. He also agreed to draw a picture for his aunt back in Ethiopia and actually told me for the first time that he had a different mom when he was a baby. I think he was worried I'd be upset, so he was relieved that it didn't upset me. brave little strong boy.
Oh, mac. I woke up with my allergies in full bloom, and now they're acting up in a totally different way.
I had dinner tonight with some adorable kids, and now I want one! Crap.
Blame the season. I've seen more people mention this sort of thing in the last week.
Me too! I'm starving.
Hee!
Hey, when it tells me to let the pears ripen in a paper bag with an apple or a banana, what's the other fruit for? Say, you don't have an apple or a banana...can I substitute something, or do I just trust in the lessened power of the brown paper bag?
What they said, but I always trust the lessened power of the brown paper bag, and it works just fine (with plums, peaches and nectarines, too).
I signed up for the damn job hunting orientation this morning, which means I have to get dressed and gone, like, now. Eeek.
It's not like an interview, it's an intro to the job counseling and search coaching service that came as part of my severance package. But all the same, it's the first step of my job hunting!
I could wish I just felt a little less, well, unemployable at the moment. Or less dead....
I was an hour late for work this morning because I forgot to turn my alarm back on, and it was still so hard to get out of bed.
I've discovered that if you have an unusual name like Theaston White, Gmail sorts you to the spam folder.
I've had things over-ripen really quickly in the bag with the banana, so that's something to consider as well...
I'm sure you're eminently employable, Theo.
I was ~20 minutes later, per usual, and was like the second person in my department here!
Now I'm tempted to keep half the pears in the brown paper bag and half out, so I can properly stage their ripening.
It's possible it's not a science as such, and I should keep things simple. But that's just a rumour.
I gleefully bought three tubs of blueberries thinking they were on sale--but no, that was the blackberries. Price difference? $3/tub. Oops.
