NOT cold today; in fact it is ridiculously warm.
1) Yesterday our backyard was a veritable aviary! I saw cedar waxwings, eastern bluebirds, chipping sparrows (so tiny!), and juncos. Oh, and the big red-bellied woodpecker who visits the feeder sometimes when he's not hanging on a tree.
2) Last night I dreamed I was talking to a young woman who'd written a Housefic about House being an insurance agent. I was trying to tell her that I'd also written a story about House being an insurance agent, but she wasn't interested. Mmm-kay, brain.
3) Finished Tolkien's The Two Towers. You guys, Shelob the giant spider? Is like A HUNDRED TIMES SCARIER than in the movie. YIKES.
4) Started Richard Powers' Orfeo. Really good so far.
5) I printed off a paper address label for a package and was taping it to the package and now there's a long Chango hair under the tape. Oops. :D
There. Five things etc.
