the routines post, with rambling

[habiliments]

I love the answers to my question about evening routines. Thanks to all of you for posting them - I may not respond to every comment (I started to, then realized I was going to repeat myself quickly), but I read every detail and appreciate that you shared them with me

I wish I ran for an hour. I just don't run. It puts me off, for some reason. When I watched Happy-Go-Lucky the weekend before last, I was SO jealous of Poppy's trampoline gym. Now that, I would do. And I'm still seriously tempted to splurge on a Wii and Wii Fit. Got the tax return and everything. Sure, I should spend that on tickets to the next East Coast wedding, but ... I like to delude myself into thinking I'll have saved up some dough by then.

Prices are wrong, it's true. And I love my hand-me-downs. It's when I start looking elsewhere that I get perplexed by things, and I know I shouldn't; other people are not me, and I'm not them. But it's hard not to compare, sometimes.

And yes, we're up watching the fire, finishing the wine, telling stories, an eye on the fireline. I've often said that I make the closest friends with people who get that you can listen to someone's story, and then come back with your own, and that can be communication as true as any kind of commentary or observations. You trade 'em back and forth. Sometimes I forget, but ... yeah.

I shouldn't be typing. I'm actually tired. I didn't write squat today and so the bulk of the movie thing has to be done tomorrow. Oh, dear.
