Should I mention that today was apparently a record-setting warm January day in Sacramento? Probably not.
I am jealous of people who have reason to wear nice coats, though. I like coats.
Lorne: My little prince. Oh…what did they do to you? Angel: Nina…tried to…eat me. Lorne: Oh, you're--medic! You're gonna make it Angel. Just don't stop fighting. Doctor! Is there a Gepetto in the house?

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

Punishingly Intricate
Asymmetrical zipper!
I'm ok with the cold because I haven't had to be out in it a ton. And I have warm clothing. But I did have a winter urban tragedy today--I left my gloves on the metro. I don't care about the gloves so much as the awesome overglove things I also left. I've had them for years and they are super warm. I hope somebody who really needed them got them.

The status is NOT quo.
Where do we talk about Downton? Because I have been catching up and have Opinions.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Here, with whitefont, I think.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Tennis: Li Na wins the Australian Open LI NA WOOOO! Ryan has twice come out of his bedroom because his family were cheering too loudly. I saw her first appearance in the Aus Open finals, back in 2011. She's really improved in her determination.

Tennis:
Every time Li Na talks after a match she has a go at her husband (and former coach). "He does a lot of jobs, fix my drinks, fix my racquets. Thanks a lot, you're a nice guy. And so lucky you found me."

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Quiet weekend here. (We seem to have a bunch of those in a row right now) Got some errands to do, but that's it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
It's above 20 degrees here, for the first time in a week. Heat wave!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was thinking the same thing, Hil -- and when I went outside, it actually does feel kind of pleasant!

Went out last night with friends from the hood and actually stayed for the whole show! Which ended at midnight. Joe was shocked. That was fun.
Yet I was still up first at 5:30, uhg. But fought the cats to sleep in until it was time to go to market. I've got to get to the pool before 11, then out to Ellicott City for a haircut this afternoon- where I might just run into the friends from last night and market, as they're picking up S's engagement ring from being resized at a shop out there. Even when I leave my neighborhood, it follows me.
Ate so much last night. I was starving as I'd just eaten carrots all day, just plain carrots and apparently that is insufficient. So I had a prosciutto, spinach, rosemary and asiago risotto, then a lot of thincrust balsamic chicken pizza and a steady supply of bourbon and gingers. I was so sure I'd have leftovers, but nsm. I'm waiting for my guts to revolt.
Finish this coffee and then pool.
