11:55 has a lot of thinking to do, and almost no time to do it. #
15:29 decided to take the plunge. I start on Monday. Bright and early at seven thirty. #
19:11 has the house to herself. Tonight will be spent watching Netflix and knitting. Joy! #
19:37 enjoyed Frontier House, but definitely liked Manor House much more. What a wonderful Edwardian experiment! #

09:21 should probably see if the kiddo is feeling better. #
13:24 has returned home with the groceries. Used a stash of gift cards to pay and went $0.81 over budget. Damn. #
16:42 is actually saddened by our spider disappearing. No idea what kind she was, but she had a beautiful web near our front door. #

22:49 wonders how on earth did she get a small blister in the very center of her fingertip on her first finger?! Wtfruit?! #

11:55 pm 11/21/09 pick a bone	woe_sis Tweet, tweet 13:25 failed on the breakfast front (we need a grocery trip), but our soup lunch should be lovely! Homemade lentil soup goodness! # 15:43 attached a tail to Mr Foster, sock monkey. He has one ear finished, so only one more to be made and both to be attached. #

00:15 is home. Finally! Long but wonderful day. Opera was great, hope to post more later. #
10:37 is slowly getting the day started. I wish Mr Brian was still here... #
13:21 has a grumbly tummy. But only as I've not put anything in it for a few hours. Must be time to eat, tho I'd rather sit and knit. #
14:46 took the easiest, and undoubtedly laziest, way out of the food dilemma. I ordered in from Pizza Pi. Cheryl says they're great. #


11:55 pm 11/19/09 pick a bone	woe_sis Tweet, tweet 08:31 is waiting for the blue line. # 09:20 has encountered one truly crazy lady and one kid with excessively loud headphones. # 09:23 is almost to the transfer point--then I get the joy of "did I get on the right train?" for a few minutes. Man, I miss the ease of BART. #

17:50 is seeing John Cleese tonight. V excited. Thursday, we're seeing Placido. Whatta week!! #

10:00 watched her dog tuck in to his breakfast as though it was the only thing he'd ever ate. Sadly, I suspect that I eat like that sometimes. #
11:06 hasn't been able to use her computer for many days. While the iPhone is pretty nifty, it's no replacement for my lappy. #
12:12 is slow on the uptake. I only just realized that I'll be in Ireland for next collegium! So much for teaching that class! #
15:38 is working on monkey lips. Wait, that doesn't sound right. I'm knitting lips for my sock monkey. (That doesn't sound much better.) #
22:23 is excited! I got my chicken catalog in the mail today! (No, cannot have chickens yet, but a girl can dream, right?) #

11:42 has a belly full of yummy homemade breakfast/brunch. Made vegan biscuits, which are quite tasty with agave nectar. Nom nom nom #
21:13 had an enjoyable evening with the inlaws. Plus, was able to knit more on the sock monkey. She now has arms attached! #
21:38 realizes that she has no clue what she'll wear to the Give Thanks for the Funk party this year. Cripes. #
