Elvisette needs a nap. As if that's news.

Tomorrow is the two seminar day. It's like the generic cartoon scene: You get hit by one car, stand up, and then get plowed into by another one, leaving you flat on the pavement and blinking helplessly with big startled eyes. I AM that roadkill.

Work is progressing halfway decently, which means that I've either screwed something up horribly or forgotten something crucial. I finished Dos Passos today, read criticism, watched South Park, and finished a scarf ("dark mauve", which is a pretty color in spite of its name). That's my exciting life, folks.

I want things. Wah, wah, wah. Yes, I'm shallow. Yes, I'm aware of that.

Speaking of acquisitiveness and shallowness, I went to a 70-80% off shoe sale this weekend and finally got the pair of Birks I've wanted for years, for under $30. This purchase made my small brain very happy.

I also planted a pot of pansies. Purrrrrty. Seriously, it is nice to know that I'll be greeted by colors when I come home every day during the forthcoming bleak winter. I chose purples, oranges, yellows, violets, blues, deep reds, you name it. It's a real burst of color.

Current bedtime reading: A Right to Be Hostile. Hilarious. Simply hilarious (if that last link isn't coming up, it's the site, not me. try again later). And very, very smart.

Over and out.
