Obsessing over: How much fun I had at the reference desk last night. It was great to be back after so long. The questions were varied. Some were very challenging. It was nice to be able to lend a hand to students, an author, and faculty.
Working on: My fitness. After two weeks of eating meat and potatoes with brown gravy, it was time to visit the treadmill. I’ve also decided to run the qualifiers for the NYC 2013 marathon. Some are short, some are long but they all require me to start running again.
Thinking about: Getting my photos together from my work trip and posting them. I have some pretty decent snapshots. It would be nice to have them in one location.
Anticipating: In 17 days Alan, Karen, and I leave for Antigua. Seven sunny days of swimming in the ocean, snorkeling, drinking rum punch, and lounging.
Listening to: Terrible phone conversations. Beyonce’s Pandora channel. Coconut Records. New bands a colleague gave me.
Eating: Belgian chocolate. In small pieces. So it lasts forever.
Currently.
Obsessing over: Tickets to see Death of a Salesman with Philip Seymour Hoffman. Can someone tell me how and/or why the ‘cheap seats’ are $97? Looks like I might be taking a long lunch and use my student ID before it expires to get the student rush rates.
Working on: A school project about Encyclopedia Britannica and their massive fail where they refused Microsoft’s offer to be their CD-ROM enclylopedia of choice and their need to not hurt the ‘traditional way of selling’.
Thinking about: How terrible are televised news programs? It is all death, violence, household scares, weather, and movie reviews. No wonder I read the news - less sensationalism.
Anticipating: A fantastic weekend in Boston with Alan. I am finally going to the Kennedy Library. I am so, so, so excited!
Listening to: The Belle Brigade, the brother/sister duo is pretty much amazing.
Eating: The Gouda I brought back from Holland. It is so buttery and rich.
Wishing: Teletransportation was real. I’d love to go have dinner with a few friends back west right now. Just a nice girls night with food and wine.
