Wednesday Reading Meme, now on Thursday
Thursday, April 11th, 2013 06:53 pmLargely because last night I had a phone call from my bro saying 'Come have dinner with us.' 'Great,' say I, prepared to step over to the porch next door. 'We're at Le Tournesol.' 'Uh but uh but--' 'Just hop on your bike and come on over.' 'Uh but uh but it's raining how do I dress uh but--' 'Dress casual. Come on.' So I did.
Have not had high-scale French food in a long time, let alone half a litre of red wine. Was too woozy to be online, then discovered my usual anti-histamines were in fact no match for coffee at 8 pm. Got up, read Japanese grammar to 3:30, went back to bed, slept until-- 8:30. When sleet was falling and I was awake, whether or no, and needed to go out and salt the nasty stuff. So now I am zombie'd, and all the nasty sleet has melted from the road but is supposed to be replaced by freezing rain this evening. I keep reminding people that it did this ten years ago, and that snowstorms in April are nothing unusual, but truly, *no one* has a weather memory but me.
Maybe tomorrow there will be no morning 'can you work for me?' phone calls and I can indeed sleep in.
