You do deserve candy, Beverly! I feel like that is generally true all the time, but especially now.

Mmm, beer and truffle fries.

I am having an international cocktail of Icelandic blueberry liqueur, Absolute Citron, and some soda water. It's pretty delicious. Also put up the patio umbrella and disturbed a whole slew of spiders (using my dad's friend's metric of "one, two, a whole slew" anyway) so now I am inside instead of out on the patio, hoping the arachnids will disperse peacefully.

msbelle, I'm so sorry to hear of your tribulations. Raising kids is not for the faint-hearted.

You're all making me sad. I have no ice cream, I haven't the right kind of booze to make fruity cocktails. I do have beer, though no truffle fries. I may just have to make do.

I have bourbon at home. Can't go to there quite yet, but when I do, bourbon.

I did manage to finish the one thing that I would have felt compelled to work on this weekend, and so far nothing has taken its place.

Stay away from Lee, work!

That mostly worked, -t!

Only 2 minutes late.

I try to use my limited powers for good. They are very limited.

I would offer you candy, Beverly, except I ate it all. Oops.

I have made it home. I have eaten two mini cupcakes. Now I am flopped on the couch watching this week’s Arrow and considering going to sleep before the sun goes down.

A citron-blueberry cocktail sounds lovely.

Go you with the whole restraint thing, Beverly!

I just got back from dinner. Dinner was two scoops of ice cream at the ice cream place out in the countryside, eaten on the front porch while watching the last of the sunset fade from the spring sky. Dinner was great!

I'm in my indoor pants or I'd be out the door seeking ice cream. I settled, if you could say that, for a New Belgium Abbey. I like dubbel ales. Perhaps tomorrow I will swing by the Union terrace and get some Babcock Hall ice cream.
