My prediction for me: Late night with Colbert will end up being something I record every day, but after a while only watch if I like the guests.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We went to see a friend in a small local production of Richard III last night. He played the lead and was quite good, but aside from two or three performers, the rest of the large cast was TERRIBLE. It was hard to watch. The actress playing Lady Anne was awful, and the Richard/Anne scene is so subtle and delicious--it broke my Shakespearean-loving heart to see it directed and acted so woodenly.
At least our friend was good and we were able to honestly tell him how good he was.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I made the Swan Coach House Tomato Basil Soup [link] yesterday because I had the basil, and it was also good cold today.
It is so painful to watch bad Shakespeare, and I feel bad at small productions because I have trouble controlling my face.

My mother didn't tell me she had diverticulitis (diag Thursday) until I called tonight. Stinkeye.

Marked for later, Ginger.
FTR, I am still awake. I got hungry and didn't finish cooking dinner until, well, now. At least it is a comfortable temperature in my house now, that's pleasant. And dinner is quite tasty.

Hmm, the story is cranking along, FINALLY. (This is the fourth attempt at this story, and absolutely the last.)
But I might need more wine.

Too early to be awake. We just had a crazy thunder/lightening/hail storm pass overhead. It felt like was sitting over the house for an hour with at least 2 very, very close lightening strikes. It woke all of us up but I think I'm the only one who can't fall back asleep.

This is my week for having to drive to another Y to swim. And of course, there are thunderstorms in the forecast later in the week. Expect whining. And people with actual commutes are welcome to mock me.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
It's nice to wake up in my own place again. I had a lovely time with family, but a couple of days is enough to remind me that I live alone for a reason. Alone somewhere closer would be nice, though.
