May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

MOre ambitious than me anyway. My big accomplishment this week was being able to sleep in a bed instead of a chair last night.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I went for a run with my niece. And I didn't fall over, and it wasn't horribly painful, although it was short. So I guess I'm on the way back. But I'm still dizzy often: no bicycling for me until I can safely look around at the traffic.

And I did two loads of laundry, and picked up around the house, and vacuumed, and groomed the dog. And then we took my dad out for dinner at a nice new restaurant (which I hadn't realized it was that expensive, my plan was just for burgers and beer).

Not a bad day--especially with some really good soccer to watch.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Worked hard enough yesterday to leave me a bit sore this morning. Including moving bookcases.

My sister: Gosh, why are books so darn heavy? Me: They're TREES.

My exciting agenda for today is cleaning a bathroom and folding an excess of laundry. And probably a nap.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Sounds like people are having productive weekends, by and large. I saw Chef yesterday and plan to do laundry today. That's probably gonna be it on the productivity side for me.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm having an Adventure on Monday: taking a bus to Albany, then another down to the Catskills to hook up with fambly for my aunt's surprise 85th birthday party (the birthday part is not a surprise).

I don't want to stress my fragile car on a 500+ mile round trip. As for getting home, it happens my cousin is driving her rental car to Boston the day after the party, so I've got a much more comfortable ride home.

So Monday goes like this: 8:30 AM, get stitches out, 11:00 AM job screening call, then to pack up and be at the bus station (via Red Line) at 5:30 for a bus trip ending at 10:30 pm (with an hour to be driven to my relatives' house after.)

I'm tired already.

Our wings are not tired.

Mmmmm, books. Mine are in storage. I didn't move them back to Delray because I knew it was temporary and I seriously limited what came here.

Worked at the office all day yesterday. DH peeled a crazy quantity of mangoes that I must do stuff with today.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That will be an adventure!

My sister: Gosh, why are books so darn heavy? Me: They're TREES.

Hee.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I just learned that my back porch is too far for the wi-fi to work with any reliability. That's a shame. It is as far away as possible, while still being in the house -- the router is above the front porch. Ah well.

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

That's too bad, Jesse. You can bridge or extend or something if you really want to, of course. Or you can embrace the remote unconnectedness of your back porch and keep it as a refuge when you want to get away from the internet. Some people like that, I understand.

That sounds like an excellent adventure, Theo. Party on!

Mmm, mangoes.

Hooray for people sleeping in beds and going for runs as they wished!

As for me, I need to eat something, should probably move some dishes around so the dishwasher can work while I am out, and then I have to get to the pool. If I don't go in the morning it gets harder and harder to make myself go as the day goes on. And once I am out I'd better go grocery shopping. Plan A.

Get ready for a lot of that today, because, as we all know, posting makes it happen.
