Nice party last night. HUGE party, as my friend has several pursuits (gaming, competitive cycling) and he and his wife have lots of work friends, and they had one big party for all of them. Lots of tasty food, good beer, and he kept circulating with little trays of vodka concoctions of one sort or another.
I listened to several Billy Bragg albums on the way home (he lives far out in the VA suburbs). My undying thanks to
peaceful_fox and
poliscidiva for introducing me to BB. I love his lyric writing.
Grim day today, cold, grey, and steady rain. I slept until 9, woke up and cleaned up a hairball that Busby had upchucked and *insisted* on my cleaning up, then went back to sleep for three hours. Having a late brunch (toast, coffee, and scrambled eggs with cheese) while watching back episodes of Psych (I'm very suggestible). OTOH, I *like* cold, rainy days, even to go walking in. It makes everything...quiet. Peaceful. And it's a great excuse for candles.
The OKC saga continues. I wrote to three more people, none of whom have replied. If I don't hear back from one in particular, I will simply cry in frustration--she's a totally perfect match.
Trying to get up the energy to write my trade pieces. Or do some laundry. I did get the trash and recycling out. Maybe write some cards and do some holiday shopping (online!)
