Last night could have gone better, and yet, my mood is hardly affected by its events ( Read more... )

Ian says I'm not living up to the standards of vacation by continuing to stick to a relatively normal sleep schedule. The past two nights I've stayed up til "a million o'clock," a/k/a 1:00 am. Didn't get up until 9:00 am for the past two mornings -- for me, this is unheard of! Sir Sleeps Til Noon does not agree, however. Today I'm going to wake ( Read more... )

I now have it in my mind that house flipping is "easy" if you're diligent and can afford to do that ( Read more... )

Quentin Tarantino's "Deathproof," one of the "Grindhouse" movies is the third most boring movie ever made. It is superseded only by Quentin Tarantino's "Reservoir Dogs" and Quentin Tarantino's "Jackie Brown." I believe Tarantino has just made the Joss Whedon list ( Read more... )

RestorationLast night I was falling asleep in the comfy chair before 9:00! I was really exhausted. I was in bed, lights out, at 9:15. I skipped my morning yoga practice today to sleep in gloriously until 7:15 this morning! Man! Sometimes you just need a long winter's nap like that, however. I feel a little creaky from yesterday's visit to death ( Read more... )
