All my onerous tasks have been accomplished for the day.
And whew, I took the most intense yoga class I've had so far and I can feel it already. The teacher was great, though.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Thrive to spite them
Anna lived to be 20 1/2 years old. A woman in my knitting group just had to put down her cat who was 23.
I talked to Mom today, they are at the beach - my brother had to do a kayaking thing in Florida this weekend so he's down in Neptune Beach and they are up in north Florida.
Currently they are living in NC and Mom really loves it. Except she told me she was really disappointed that her "adopted" state voted against gay marriage. I think 20 years ago she wouldn't have thought that.
ION there's a weird thumping going on upstairs, it's almost the same rhythm of a shoe in a dryer. Thump THUMPthump THUMP thump. I have no idea what my landlady or her kids could possibly be doing but I hope they cut it out soon.

I also may have bought speculoos at Trader Joes. What should I put it on?
Everything that isn't pasta or meat.
YUM.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I am old enough that I feel I should've figured out a system for clothes that are not dirty but are not clean either.
I got a hall tree, the kind of thing you put in the foyer to hang jackets on, and set it beside my bedroom door. Clothes that are not dirty enough to be washed go there.
And to think I used to wonder where the ideas in Dilbert came from.
I used to think Dilbert was just a funny comic. I didn't realize it was a documentary.
amych, I know I am not alone in appreciation for the battle you and so many others waged on the ground in NC. I'm sorry. I am sure it is that much harder for those witnessing the disappointment locally.
What Laura said. I'm sorry this ended up as such a disappointment, amych.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I went to TJS on the way home, and decided against the speculoos, but now I really wish I hadn't. I bet it would go well with the frozen chocolate bananas I did buy.

Spoon!
You know what's funny? For all the faaabulous food I had in Spain, what I miss daily is my morning coffee at the local bar/cafes I found. Bar Los Bocadillos near the hotel,(hey, the guy serving beer at the front was my guy! [link] ) and Taberna del Trovador in Segovia (only coffee places open at 6 am and they were well worth visiting anytime.) The cafe con leche was so smooth. They added hot milk, not cold. And I don't know what made it so good, but the in house gratis-churros were bonus.
I didn't think I was coffee picky. Apparently, it can be learned.

I don't have frozen chocolate bananas, but I did have a peanut butter/banana sandwich for dinner. Some days I just want to be fourteen years old.
Like today, when they handed out certificates to two of my coworkers for meeting a new standard the organization is establishing, and I realized I wasn't getting one because I'm a contractor. I hate this.
