The most bizarre thing just happened. My doorbell rang, and it was my super, handing me this wooden crate lined with a lovely dishtowl and filled to the brim with tasty treats from E.A.T.. The weird part is that it was from my building’s management company! I’m living here over 9 years and we never got squat. Now, how am I going to eat over $100 in treats without ballooning up like a zepplin? Bad enough that I had mac and cheese for dinner and I had ice cream waiting in the freezer. OY.
Trying to do some work on the alpaca scarf tonight. I have little patience for the endless strands of the Caterpillar lately, though I really only have one sleeve and the neck left. I was reminded today that the next 2 Tues. are Xmas and New Year’s Eves, so there goes SnB till 2003. Silly me. If it wasn’t so cold out last night and I didn’t get home from work an hour later than I thought I would, I might have made more of an effort to go.
I finally, after a week, have a full voice again, and although I’m still a bit stuffy, can honestly say I’m no longer sick. I’m filling up on those clementines now, too.
The weekend was a good one, filled with parties. Ellen’s on Friday, Rachel’s on Saturday, Brett’s on Sunday. I think I over did it on the cheese, eggnog, and chocolate. The parties aren’t over yet either, this week is another batch of them if I decide to go to them all. In fact, tonight is SnB, and I’m up in the air again. There’s a holiday party with a chance of meeting a lot of new people, and Ayelet and I may go. That is, if she gets enough stuff done before heading to L.A. If not, I may go anyway. I guess I’ll decide what I’m doing by early evening. Stuck at work till then anyway, which is slow at the moment, so I might knit some. I have a sleeping pup at my feet. I’m so glad I work in such a relaxed atmosphere, that is, when it isn’t an insane asylum. Tomorrow I head to my freelance assignment to learn their production tool for their website and after that, I get to work on stuff from home, which is great!
