thoughts on a rainy afternoon
yikes.
woke up at 9:30, figured i'd go ahead and try for more than the requisite eight hours.... reawoke at 1:15. and that is the latest I've slept in .... months? So I had a short list of things that needed to be done in the immediate future that included baking chocolate-chip cookies (a hankering, my friends, should not be ignored) and a workout. It's 90 minutes of work, plus two rests (3x30), so it'll take a long time and I must get my butt moving. especially if I want to get to the crew banquet on time (6pm)... sadly, I didn't have the time to give my room the cleaning it so dearly wants for. maybe after I get back tonight?
the cookies came out lovelily. Rather than making plain chocolate-chip cookies, I opted to partially substitute some trail mix, some chopped pecans, and some pieces of british chocolate.
Success!
a little flourier than I like, but I'll alter it next time. other than being tall and cakey, they're lovely. can't say the same about the oven, though; it's being thoroughly inconsistent now and not staying at any temperature over or under what the temp gage says. Dear Toby....
despite getting about 12 hours of sleep, my limbs are just.... fatigued. The workout will probably help; they always do manage to energize. with that, I've gotta get going. I'll be a few minutes late to the banquet, though it does help that it's in the event room in the gym.
Anybody else get the feeling that Purple Rain is gonna fall on its rainy face? I think I'll show up for a free beer and go home. I like that BPat called it "...a celebration of change, of responsibility, of eroticism, of YOU."
Wet sex on the Great Lawn, anyone?
