Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

Because books.

In non-sense-making news, talk of budgets and spending less money has led to me to window shop for clothes online.

I may need to soother myself with another creamsicle.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

talk of budgets and spending less money has led to me to window shop for clothes online.

I had a Coldwater Creek Groupon for $50 that was set to expire yesterday, and I got this blouse with it: [link] in white. After shipping, etc., I paid $3 and change, plus I paid $25 for the Groupon. So, $28 total for that blouse. Not bad. But I need to stop impulse-buying Groupons.

Except for sushi.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

mmmm, sushi.

Things that make me smile: Some nights when I get home, one of my neighbors is outside tossing a softball around with his kid, who I swear looks just like Opie, but with bright red hair.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

animal picture of the week:

That looks like good eatin'.

Man! Our department went for Indian today, and I cheerfully ordered the #9--goat tikka, and the waiter went "Huh?" I pointed it out on the menu and he said they didn't have it, or any of the goat dishes. I was very disappointed. The tandoori chicken was good, but not what I wanted.

The mango lassi was delish.

Steph, that's a lovely blouse. If I were open to wearing short sleeves to work (a combo of hiding the track marks and the damned air conditioning) I'd totally impulse buy it.

My Captain America shirt did not come in time for the movie.

In other random news, this fresh bread is delicious, and my obsession with Nutella continues apace.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Didn't Opie have bright red hair?

Not this bright.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I started feeling sick from the heat in the house without air conditioning, so we got into the car and drove around for a while with the air on full blast until it was time to go to dinner. We just got back from dinner, and the house is still sweltering -- much hotter than outside -- but it's bearable. Mostly.

Oh, that's pretty! (But tell me not to go looking on that site now. Damn it.)
