rms10Things here have been busy, so here goes:
1. We're painting this weekend! Not everything, and my dad's coming up to help us, so that will be good.
2. Doc got an ear laceration on Monday, which needed sutures. So when we're not home to keep an eye on him, he has to wear a cone so he doesn't scratch it. He is not particularly happy about it.
3. The NCAA hockey final is Michigan State vs. BC. I am so mad I could spit. I hate BC. I hate Michigan State. I could spend paragraphs talking about how I despise BC hockey, but instead I will link to Jack Johnson demolishing BC. That can't fully dull the pain that was Michigan hockey this year, though.
4. I finished Farthing, by Jo Walton, and really enjoyed it. The setting -- mid-twentieth century English countryside -- and genres -- alternate history and mystery -- really appealed to me. I also liked that it didn't try to be a grand epic about the alternate conclusion of WWII -- it focused on events at the personal level. I like alternate histories quite a bit, but most of them seem to be these mammoth tomes that I just don't have the patience for.
5. After the snow flurries yesterday and today, I'm starting to think that I may like living in Santa Barbara.
6. I have two weddings to go to soon -- one in May, and one in June -- and nothing to really wear to them. My initial trip to the mall was not successful, except at one point I tried on a cute polka-dotted wrap dress that actually fit. It's not dressy enough for the wedding and it's dressier than my normal wardrobe, but I can't stop thinking about it. It's so cute! But it was polka-dots! And I have no clue where I'd wear it! But do I go back and get it?
7. I've been very tired all week, despite getting nearly 8 hours of sleep/night. Maybe I'm getting too much sleep?
