Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It really is perverse -- I'm spending so much money on stuff that's not enjoyable that I'm spending even more for fun and adventure!

I am very tempted by this line of thought. There are some kind of reasonable flights (in relation to regular insanely priced flights to Europe from Canada) to Dublin in November. I am trying to convince myself to wait until spring.

Because books.

I'm studying up on the publisher's romance line for my interview. Whee!

Not going to Paris, though, which is a bummer.

The Macarthur Grants were announced. Karen Russell was announced as a recipient. huh? Also someone at Steppenwolf.

I just went through the whole list, and realized I was afraid I would see someone I know! What is wrong with me.
