Weekend - expected mid-70s! (There is still lumpensnow in shady areas in the yard as of today, though.) Clean up fallen branches and assorted debris from snowstorm; plant peas and spinach. Hit new coffee shop with excellent donuts. Decide about summer travel plans and Casper's camps. Clean house in preparation for a visit from my mother. Maybe work on painting the bathroom a little. Plus the usual laundry/groceries/children routine.
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Saturday: Humans.
Sunday: Dirt.

Hopefully the dirt from Sunday isn't for burying the humans from Saturday.

Because books.
Weekend:
Dealing with sick five-year-old. Copyediting. Possibly Watchmen. Napping.
The glamour never ends.

I suppose that depends on how well I deal with a full day of humans. But I think we have plenty of organic matter for the garden already.

Coding and Sleeping
I found out my daughter's class is covering forces and gravity. I was trying to tell how gravity is really cool and is the warping of time and space. I also tried telling how time slows down for observers in higher gravity. She seemed really unimpressed by all this. I did tell her to stick with the class answer of 'force that attracts objects to each other' rather than 'warping of space-time' on any tests.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So glad I wasn't the only one who went there.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Tonight I'm taking Frank the dog to the vet. I don't know what the vet will say other than he's old (he's gotten pretty incontinent and shakey recently, but it's been gradual). I hope he doesn't recommend a bunch of tests.
If it doesn't take too long at the vet I may go up to Trader Joe's after.
Saturday is bike riding in the warmer weather! Plus 3-year old twins birthday party (chocolate pirate ship cake!) and then another party I have to go to after. Sunday is ... I'm not sure. Walking maybe and then later babysitting twins so their folks can go see Coraline finally.
