Monday evening

Today was a good day, all the way around. It's amazing what a little sunshine will do for my attitude.

Sparky and I made 12 dinners (which really equals closer to 20) that should keep us fed for much of the next month. We've got the next month's worth of busy schedule sorted out, mostly. Sparky's spending the night with a friend. Beast and I are watching Orange County Choppers--and I'm getting irritated with Paul Jr. saying "very unique." The bike is pretty slick, though: an under-frame mounted gas tank and equal-sized front and back wheels. Cool pipes, and a big flarey fender in the back.

I realized that I don't need to go to work tomorrow until almost 9 because Sparky is getting dropped off at 5 at the library.

I'm trying not to stress about stuff, and I'm finding it thoroughly amazing that even my little attempts at this are paying off big dividends. Here's hoping I can continue feeling that way.
