That's disturbing. You're emotionally scarred and will end up badly.

Yay, Suzi! So excited for your new house.

This weekend I have to look at the kitchen plan and mark it up for the contractors; they apparently forgot about the slot where the broom & dustpan will live.

Nice dinner with a friend, including splitting a very yummy tiramisu. Now I am drinking the last half-glass of wine from my kitchen bottle, and I really need to dive back into White Teeth for book club. I fear there will be skimming: book club is on Tuesday and I have a ton of work to do this weekend...

But first I might watch the Star Wars trailer again...

I drove my first marathoner today! Boston Common and Back Bay are all set up two days in advance, and it seems like hundreds have their numbers on already.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Good to hear!

I have had my first soft-boiled egg. Which was also my first goose egg. Pretty good. I may make more of an effort to have toast available for my next one.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm heading to the finish line later this afternoon for non marathon purposes, but it is always fun to see the people!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

There's a newly discovered passage that was cut from an early draft of A Wrinkle In Time. [link]

Makes me want to reread those books. I think there's a copy around the house, and Franny's a good age to make her introduction to L'Engle.

soft boiled eggs are delicious. I heartily recommend the addition of bacon and buttered toast.

There are few foods more disgusting than soft-boiled eggs.

There are few foods so delightful and delicious as eggs with golden runny yolks!
