Awwwwww.

I've been talked out of making Corpse Revivers

Dang it, I voted for them.

Health~ma for Luna.

Corpse Revivers sounds like an excellent plan to me.

Huh. Today I took Leifur in for some regular blood work. After dropping him at home I ambled over to the local botanical gardens, which I try to do on the regular. But this time I met some members of the local Sierra Club who a) showed me how to ID plants with my iPhone’s photo ID function, b) showed me an art gallery at the gardens which I’d never known about (I’ve been going regularly since the center was built), and c) invited me to a poetry meetup in April. I came home and renewed my Sierra Club membership and signed up for the poetry event.

Getting outside. Turns out it can be good for you.

What are people up to this weekend? You people, that is.

I'm planning to make a cake today, though first I'm going to the farmers market and then by the store to get some frosting, since I decided that the homemade icing recipe that comes with the cake recipe is more trouble than it's worth. Then I'm one of the readers at tonight's Easter Vigil service at my church.

Then tomorrow we have a ham for Easter dinner all because a few weeks ago at Dylan's work, there was some reshuffling and one of his direct reports was sent to another manager's team. He wasn't immediately given a replacement, so he quipped that he'd been given a 2nd and a 4th-round draft pick, plus a bag of baseballs and a ham. A few days later, a honey-baked ham arrives on our doorstep, courtesy of the other manager.

Insofar as I have a traditional Easter dinner at all, it's either to make Alton Brown's pork wellington recipe or to get lazy and pick up a nice box of fried chicken from the QFC down the road. But I will not turn up my nose at free ham.

I took off yesterday and the plan was to do yard work, but I did absolutely nothing instead.

Today I did not sleep in as long so I am trying to motivate. 1 load of laundry in and I’m straightening up the downstairs. A friend is coming over to hang out in 3 hours, so that’s the motivation to get things in order.

I had choir rehearsal this morning, now errands and making a lemon meringue pie. Tomorrow, church for Easter and then fam coming over for ham dinner.

Good roll call.

Calli - that is so cool!

I'm in between pedicure and meeting my friend for lunch. Puppy sleeping on my legs. So far so good.

It will probably be just me and some Jews for our Town Hall tomorrow, but our Easter celebration is too small to act busy from.

I went for a run this morning, and I have to write up staff reviews today. But tomorrow I go see Bruce Springsteen! (Possibly for the last time, who knows?)
