I have been slacking on the work-work more than usual when I work from home. But, car is maintained, dog is walked, hair is cut, lunch is eaten and groceries are ordered for pick up in a couple hours (all the stuff I somehow did't realize I needed when I went grocery shopping day before yesterday. After I made a list and had a roughed out menu plan for the week. Sigh). And I'm not super tense, which is nice.
I seen you without your clothes on before. Never thought I'd see you naked.

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

Also, not completely my fault. The ERP was inaccessible for a while after lunch and other people are not getting me everything I need to do my regular work. The special projects I would normally apply my downtime to are just much easier to work on at the office.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Think I'll make a berry rum smash for our porch drinks!
That sounds lovely.
Thank goodness, we've moved into the crudite portion of the CSA. Dinner tonight is kohlrabi, carrot, radish, broccoli, all just raw. With dip! There will need to be salad later, but not today! ("Not today, Satan!")

Had dinner tonight with a theater friend from college. We were never close but still keep up on Facebook and hey, I'm in her city. I'm so jealous of her house and her sewing space! So cool!! And it was so weird because to me she still looks just the same, though with slightly different hair. But her husband is three years younger than her (and she's a year younger than me) and I thought he looked old. Which makes me suspect she and I also look old, but still see each other/ourselves as we looked when younger?

Nah, I think mid 30s-50s are the ages when people can look the most drastically different "for their age." Is he balding? That's a big one for aging men.

There was an article in the news yesterday saying that certain aging markers (I forget which--things like BP, maybe?) differed significantly for different people. So maybe he's aging faster than you, meara.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm in Maine this week, and the law here is that they have to card anyone who looks under 30, and I've been carded every time I've ordered a drink. So I at least look under 30.
