Oh, except I forgot: my geometry classes built kid-sized soccer goals the last couple of days as a project, and little Calvin got to take one home. [link]

So I went to a neighborhood charette to vote on possible upgrades to one of the big streets in the neighb. Which, given the name, was expecting more contention and uproar, but no. We all sipped on free wine from the wine bar and voted by putting beans into little boxes for the upgrades we wanted.

but I'm in that fugue state of "click the tab, check the thing, glaze-eyed-read"
I hate when that happens--especially when it's late and I really should be going to sleep...and yet I just keep clicking from one website to another, where nothing has changed...(no, at midnight no one is posting here, no one is posting on FB, there are no new articles on the blogs...)
Gris, I was very skeptical of the touch-kindle, but I bought a paperwhite and I love it. There are a few occasions where a click button would've been nicer, but for the most part it's just fine.

Eee! I just found out there's a ZAPPOS OUTLET and my sister might go on a daytrip with me there when I'm visiting in a couple weeks! I expect it may not be great in my size (8, so common) but still...

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
What? Zappos has an outlet? clutches wallet

Yeah, apparently it's an actual store, in Kentucky somewhere!
I keep looking at all these shoes online and cannot find just what I'm looking for. And then I ended up on ModCloth for some reason and want ALL the shoes, but they're generally not leather and kinda cheap looking/sounding, which I don't want.

They used to have an outlet in Vegas that I had been too. But it closed two years ago.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh no! My favorite shoes I've never worn came from that Vegas outlet.

In actual "oh no!" news, I just found out a member of my mother's church was hit by a truck while on her bike and died! It's so sad. She was a great lady.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, that is an oh, no! I'm so sorry. How sudden and awful. I want to ride my bike to work, but random awful things like that make me hesitate.
