Did my good deed for the day: My mother was disappointed that basketball was on instead of Castle, so I got her to watch one On Demand.
Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Just looked over my PTO. So far I'm only out half a day because the full days I've had to take this year have fallen on company holidays. And my scheduled vacation runs over President's day, so that's one less day I'll lose. Hooray, good timing.

Happy birthday, Anne! And much ~ma for Dana's MIL. And for Suzi's foot.

Dana, your mom already had it and now your MIL does?? How awful!
I tried the latke truck, and it was pretty delicious. Though also pretty greasy (but then, I had the BLGTA, so bacon and gouda and some kind of aioli don't help). I would highly recommend Teppy come visit, walk to my Trader Joe's, and then get latke truck.

Latke truck? How marvelous, although there is a huge irony in serving latkes with bacon on them.
Today was all servicable food. Nothing awful but nothing inspired either: breakfast was pita bread with a bit of egg salad that was leftover, lunch was a rice and seitan salad, dinner was pasta and a salad. meh.

Because books.
Jesse, I finished Rules of Civility. I think I liked it more than you did, although I didn't love it. I have nitpicks, too.

I enjoyed Rules of Civility. One of my English teacher buddies said it's like a cheaper Great Gatsby and I added but with likeable characters.
Also, msbelle, Noah asked me why boys don't have babies cut out of their bellies. My explanation used the word uterus. So, I'm feeling you.

Mmmm, latke truck.
