Sunday Night

Gah. Finally better today. Wonderfully cool tonight (dipping into the 50s), hormonal storm has broken (why, yes, perimenopausal woman having another period, thank you very much), and we had a very nice dinner (grilled London Broil). Plus we listened to a very nice CD (Boulevard, St. Germain), and watched a good ball game (Boston Red Sox at Minnesota Twins). And we had some excellent red wine (Penfold's Koonunga Hill Shiraz/Cabernet). And some more of the Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie ice cream.

Is that not enough? Are we not entertained? (Line stolen from Gladiator.) What else? I don't know. I need to write a House/Holmes story. As if I didn't have enough already making me weep because I'm so far behind. *g*

Yay! For feeling better! Yay! For Wine and baseball and ice cream! *happy dances*

Me, I'm about to quit goofing off and go back to my late-night grading. But I'll probably be back online before I head to bed. *flounces away, after tossing carrots at the House/Holmes plotbunnies*

Heh! I'm not even going to mention the bizarre bouncings of my Internetz connection today -- something which caused me to Curse Loudly and Frighten Mr. Nightdog. *snerk*

Yay for grading! It sounds as if you're really wrapping things up! When is the semester over?

Ooooo, Cursing Loudly!

Yes, wrapping up is a great term! (I just stopped in to add 3 more assignments to my progress bar. I'm not calling it quits tonight until I'm at 80%.) Tomorrow is the Last Class Day, then our Finals Week is very screwy this year: Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Monday the 19th. So--I have the TAKE HOME OF DOOM due to me on Friday, and my freshman class has their final on Monday. I have to have grades in by the 22nd. And then I'm done done done!!!!

Except, of course, I have to write my ass off this summer. But I'll cross that bridge after finals. :)

Perimenopause? Is the work of the Devil.

And you know when I say "Devil" I mean it in the metaphorical sense. Heh!

Hee. You and my mother with the perimenopause!

nightdog said-(perimenopausal woman having another period, thank you very much) Blackmare said-Perimenopause is the work of the Devil (metaphorical)

Heh! Exactly, right on both counts!

What part of "pare off men paws" don't we get? hee

Most times, transitions, in various things are rough.

I don't intend to go out gracefully...hmph!
