I sometimes wonder how it is that some people are actually able to spend the whole night in bed. I always wander a bit.

My little town's library has had (since Oct 1) reading/drawing in the children's room: Ben Hatke, Oliver Jeffers, Eoin Colfer, Matt Davies and tonight is Tam O'Shaughnessy. K is getting quite the collection of signed books.

You'd think the learning curve on that would be shorter.

Right? And I probably still have a ways to go before I really learn.

Ooh, very cool, ND!

Aren't we all?

Maybe it's a public service we could subscribe to.

My department meeting provided lunch (Subway, sigh, but I ate it) and the Consumer Relations Department upstairs is celebrating Customer Service week with, among other things, nachos, candy and cake for all. I am eating so much more food than I usually do today. Do I take the salad I made for lunch today home and eat it for dinner, or leave it here for tomorrow's lunch?

Tomorrow's lunch, one less thing to worry about in the morning.

It does seem, right now, that I am unlikely to need dinner.

Duck taco truck wasn't there today. Oh woes! My mediocre lunch is no substitute.

Oh, no, to have the promise of duck tacos dangled before you and then yanked cruelly away! How sad. I would save my perfectly cromulent nachos with you if I could, as consolation.

my perfectly cromulent nachos

I cannot see the word cromulent without thinking of barbarians with swords. It makes the nachos seem a lot more aggressive than they probably are.

mmmm, nachos!

I have been fighting with my computer at work for the past half hour. Clearly it is time to go home. There may not be any duck tacos, but there's the promise of a glass of wine while I cook dinner. I should probably be trying harder at … something … but oh well. Not trying for much at all at the moment.

Timelies all!

There is a distinct lack of food trucks in my life.

We get food trucks here at work, but I'm too cheap to buy from them for lunch.
