Partly cloudy -- a kind of hazy sunlight. I noticed yesterday when I went to the store that some neighbors' trees were starting to bud out, and our sweet gum tree in the front yard has leaf buds. 54 degrees (12.22 Celsius). Chango decided she wanted on the bed last night -- once there, she cuddled up next to me, fell asleep, and snored lightly. Heh.

Finished Craig Ferguson's American on Purpose. Overall it was a good read, and I'd recommend it. I did notice a few typos, but those appear to be everywhere these days -- it's like publishing houses don't have proofreaders any more. Still, it's very engaging ... Ferguson keeps you turning the pages. There were a couple of times when I wished he'd gone more in-depth, and I suppose it's to his credit that he's not afraid to show himself as a real asshole on more than one occasion (cheating on various wives and girlfriends, an incident with Peter Cook that I won't go into because it would essentially be a spoiler, but which made me say "Oh, Craig, you asshole.").

ANYWAY. Strong recommendation. At the very least a B+, trending up to an A-. *g*

Hi Nightdog hi!

I am having the last of the leftover potato soup for lunch, and am feeling otherwise kind of discombobulated, and what I *really* want to do is put up another recipe post.

So what I think I'll do is get a list post going, and then maybe some more tea. :)

Hi Perspi!

I was just in the back yard throwing a tennis ball for Chango, and ZOMG it is MILD! I am vaguely discombobulated too -- I need to get a haircut but I think that won't happen until tomorrow.

YAY LISTS!
