I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

askye and sj, feeling better vibes to you.

smonster, ugh on the bad AC. However, my gays are trying to convince me to come/go for Southern Decadence, so I may be down your way in future.

Hil, glad your interview went well, sending ~ma for that and the one on Wednesday.

And, now to bed. I was planning on a lazy day tomorrow, but just found out that a friend of mine is going to be on a float for his small town Memorial Day parade, so we are going to support at 8:30AM on a holiday. The fact that his dad, the former fire chief, is the grand marshal and I may meet hot firemen is in no way dispositive to my decision to go.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Woot! Hot firemen is never dispositive!

oh noes, AC woes! I feel your pain.

Been quietly cheering on askye during this tough couple of days. Otherwise, mostly sleeping and watching Arrow.

Thrive to spite them

Sometimes it's the little things that can both be exciting and disappointing. White bean and kale soup showed up on the menu and there's Chicken with Pasta and Roasted Fennel. So I was going to try them for tomorrow.

Turns out they both have tomatoes which I can't eat. I forgot to ask what the seasonal fruit is going to be, but I did't want to ask someone to call down to the kitchen. Yesterday it was pineapple but today it was strawberries. I'm taking a shot it will be strawberries. If it's not maybe I can give it away/trade with someone.

I'm feeling better I just have to wait it out until I can talk to the actual doctor. It's raining so probably no outside time today. I was kind of social and I'm determined to go to every group today. If I go to all of htem it means I'm improving right?

Our wings are not tired.

Taking part in all the groups is wonderful, askye. Just being determined to do so is great.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Askye, that definitely sounds like an improvement. Good for you!

I've been fairly social this weekend. We have Victor and Thessaly over for TV and dinner Saturday, went out for Thessaly's birthday party on Sunday, and had G and his mom H over this afternoon which I was able to do because the house was already picked up from Saturday. We played Trivial Pursuit. I'm trying not to stress out about the fact that I haven't been able to book my iron infusions yet so I have no idea what my week looks like.

OK, so, someone from one of the private schools that the placement agency sent my resume to just called me (NOT a scheduled interview -- just, called me), and asked me a few questions, and apparently liked my answers, because she wants me to come to the school for an on-campus interview and sample lesson on Thursday. As in, three days from now. I said yes, and now I'm rearranging a few things and trying to plan a lesson.

That sounds great, Hil! Tons of ~ma.

Hil, if by any chance it is Choate, let me know, because I know some people, or at least can give you the run-down (my mother taught there for 10 years and I and my siblings went.)

Thanks for the ~ma.

It's not Choate, but thanks anyway. It's a day school -- one with uniforms that are giving me a definite Gilmore Girls vibe.
