One guy I used to work with said he loved listening to Frank Sinatra, but he always felt like he should be drinking a martini when he was. I really can't argue with that, although climbing up a library ladder with a slinky skirt and throwing my arm out to the room and pretending to serenade also does the trick.
The birthday day was low-key, which was nice. I went through Central Park and watched some geese napping on the water and a couple of diving ducks, and my parents gave me socks and jam from Vermont as gifts. I don't have the space for the jam in my itty-bitty fridge, so they're holding onto it for now.
At the moment, I've got two stories I need to edit before I can post them, and one long-term work in progress which isn't really progressing. I'm considering stepping out of my typical patterns and putting it on hold to work on another long-term project. This makes me kind of antsy since I hate the idea of bouncing around between projects or starting things without a good time-frame to finish them - it strikes me as flighty and crass. Blame my aversion on working on more than one thing at a time on college, if you like, but it's still there. Then again, I've got access to all of Supernatural and almost none of House, so it might be worth it to give this a shot. At least until I've got my DVDs back.
Lately I've had the weird recurring thought that I'm a great person and would make a fantastic friend, but need more of an initial investment than most. I'm still not sure if this is an accurate observation. In any case, it's something for Tuesday.
