So, thirty-one feels just like thirty did, which felt exactly like twenty-nine did. I *do* have two new white hairs...in my eyelashes. What's up with that? Weird ( Read more... )

I think it's time for another installment of "I write to keep me sane." I'd finish what's left of the bottle of wine I have here at the house, but I'm saving it for a pot roast. Drinking some chamomille tea instead.

1. Have made absolutely no headway with co-worker's baby blanket.
