It's a good thing

In order to stop myself from whining about the snow YET AGAIN, I present a list of things which are of the good:

1. Four day weekend!

2. Which means this is technically Friday. Woo.

3. Craft fair with [livejournal.com profile] idella and [livejournal.com profile] starfishchick on Saturday.

4. Lunch with [livejournal.com profile] sarcasma today.

5. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead on DVD.

6. I broke down and bought Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell because it's too damn big and I had to keep returning it to the library, so I can start that this weekend.

7. hamstrings that no longer hurt.

8. One Man Lord of the Rings is coming back to town! (Sadly, not at Fringe prices, but still.)

9. I cleared one of the many piles off my desk.

10. I bought shelving for the bathroom, which is slowly getting put together, and once it's finished, I can get everything off the bathroom floor.

11. Which means I won't have to lean at a 45 degree angle to get at the mirror.

12. Which means I will stop poking myself with the mascara brush.

13.The broccoli, bok choy, red pepper and tofu stir-fry I made for dinner last night.

What's good with you all?

four day weekend. Woohoo I'm a lazy pampered civil servant type provincial employee with a four day weekend for no reason.

Dinner party for the inlaws (possibly) and for friends (definately) - I will make a traditional roast beef dinner with traditional fixins and now that the word is out, everybody I work with is trying to wrangle an invitation but they are NOT COOL ENOUGH aahahahahahaha


re-reading Nickel and Dimed at the ref desk last night - read it, it's SOOOOOO good.

Lost 4 lbs already - then my boss took me out for lunch yesterday (goodthing) but everything on the menu was deep fried goodness (good thing) and I had fish and chips (good thing) and I will probably gain 4lbs from those finch and chimps (bad things).

Other boss gave us all Bernard Callebaut chocolate easter eggs filled wtih truffles (yay) and I ate mine (bad).

Newest Poppy Brite book is out - haven't bought it yet, but it exists! in the world! and I am muchly looking forward to it. Nifty thing, I reread the second on in that series last night and my boy found it on the couch and is now also reading it (he's dissapointed that the characters are gay. I said "she's a gay writer", and he said "i know, but it doesn't add much" and I said, "that's why she's so cool, it doesn't dominate the story. it's just a fact of their lives.")

George RR martin new book is supposed to have a release date again. Preordered it, and the new harry potter, and the Food Processor bible new edtion - yay books yay!

Sucks so hard - I've been losing and gaining the same four pounds for about 8 months now.

It's a good thing we're both cute and sexy the way we are, eh?
