1) It is odd that you can be jealous of a friend's good fortune, and yet genuinely happy for them,too. It DOES happen. I am jealous that two of my friends got to chat in person with Ron Perlman in Austin last night, but I am very happy for them too! He was very sweet to them, and it is nice to know that he does remember us.
Here Mary delivers a smooch from Fiona (and the rest of us #Perlgirls, of course.)
And here he sends one back.
He really does care about us. Astounding as it seems sometimes.
2) Laundry you are waiting for will never get dry, no matter what the autodry setting on your oh-so-smart dryer says.
3) A properly made Tequila Sunrise will give you a buzz without you realizing it has done so. They taste SO good, and they sneak right up on ya!
4) You can instantly identify a movie as being made in the 1980s just by hearing the music, if it is a contemporary setting.
5) Some silly, cheesy 1980s action/comedies are still fun to watch all these years later.
6) Music really does bring back memories. Listening to a Greatest 80s Hits album today, and remembering college and my first year teaching, and dates Matt and I went on both before and after we got married...
7) Cold, dreary weather makes me want to hole up in my office and read. No serious reading, but light mysteries, fan fiction, anything light and fun. Guess I'm trying to counter the gloom.
This weather, only wetter, is plaguing SXSW in Austin. South By Soaking Wet is it's new nickname.
8) Voice practice may go very well. Then the snot will fall in. And you will sound like a bullfrog, even if you ARE a lyric soprano.
10) Husbands who cook and then do dishes are the sexiest men on the planet. I mean it. Wow.
11) Wearing mostly black tomorrow. First Sunday in Lent. Guess black is appropriate.
12) I keep finding fellow Episcopalians in odd places. Found another one on Twitter. Robert Patrick. Always fun to find another person who answers "And also with you." when someone in the Star Wars movie says "May the Force be with you."
13) Watching my husband watch me, and sometimes I can almost hear him thinking "God, I love it when she stretches." Nice to know I still get to him after all these MANY years! (We met in '83.)
14) Just because some idiot decided we have to lose an hour tonight, it does not mean my internal clock will willingly reset. Hence, I am sitting here at what will feel like 00:20 later on, but feels like 23:20 to me!
Time to shut this down. I do have to finish a few things and then get ready for bed. Gotta sleep so I can look at least mostly human tomorrow.
Thanks for reading. Sometimes feel like I'm talking to myself here, but the stats say the pages get hits. One never knows.
