Wednesday

Partly cloudy, warm (86 degrees). Have been sneezing this morning, go me.

Dog wanted out in the middle of the night so got up and turned on the deck light. Saw something on our basil plant so stepped out onto the deck to investigate. You know, besides the spiny lizards and geckos here, we've also got anoles, which is a horrible name for a very cute little lizard. Well, the thing on the basil plant was a very small anole, maybe an inch and a half long. And it was asleep. On a basil leaf. So I said mmmm-kay and left it alone. I don't know, there are some things I find just amazingly wonderful and this was one of them. *g* I saw it again this morning (at least, I think it's the same one) awake and on one of our pineapple plants.

Later dreamed about two sets of extended families that were having this huge feud and shooting each other. Kevin Spacey (the actor) was there, as one of the brothers in one of the families.

So I think I need more coffee.

The meetings aren't bad, today--not like in two weeks, when we've got all the pre-semester crap. Today was a meeting with a colleague (Dr. House! I'm not kidding!) about something we were supposed to draft for a committee we're on, and the later meeting is with my senior thesis student--she's doing a project on swearing in college classrooms, which is really quite fascinating.

DR. HOUSE? Oh, how funny!

Hee, I remember how startled I was when I went to college to find that some of my teachers actually said things like shit and damn and hell, JUST LIKE REAL PEOPLE. Heh.
