I just got my February pay stub. It's the 28th? Already?? How did THAT happen? Purim feels much too close already (and technically it's delayed a month to begin with). Please, oh, please don't make me think about Pesach.
On the other hand, the other thing that just landed in my in-box is the collection I ordered (used) of the Talley plays. Yay! Who wants to borrow it when I'm done? And when are we reading them out loud?
Speaking of reading:
ellen_kushner now has a LiveJournal? And according to her info page, she shares my birthday?! This is the most entertaining pair of facts I expect to discover all day.
Weekend notes: Really nice Kabbalat Shabbat (even though the lights went out in the middle) and mini-Menschen Shabbat dinner (even though Tiger Boy came home with a migraine). Successful '80s dance (about 45 people, maybe 50 all told; this is about what we had last year, although it seemed like not as many. I suspect Jews On Ice cut into our attendance somewhat. But Kosher Boy came and actually danced with me, which was a pleasure, and so did
thevortex! *waves*). Got up early and baked banana bread. Quick stop at
muchabstracted's Seven Deadly Sins b'day party (although it looked touch-and-go there for a while as to whether I would actually get there at all, my arrival costumed as Lust fortunately helped complete the set), then a very nice little bridal-shower-slash-engagement-party for
musicjill. Menschen rehearsal. Did not watch the Oscars; I never do, honestly. Did manage to run out for groceries once I got home. *relief*
Then I stayed up too late on IM having a just-this-side-of-frustrating chat with
mrmorse, and much too late after that trying to have a slightly-less-frustrating phone conversation that would make me better able to sleep. By 2am, at least I was tired out, not to say wrung out. When hearing Bert and Ernie sing "Imagination" sends huge tears rolling down my face, I am clearly overtired.
And this morning it seems that I still am. Although my headache has receded, I have that unsatisfied feeling that I get from not enough sleep and too much starch and sugar: suddenly nothing seems to fill me up in quite the right way. Sort of in the same way that having three and a half dates with Tiger Boy in five days does not satisfy my yearning for his company. My metabolism seems to be off all around. Or I am failing to address the underlying deficiencies.
At least I managed to take the long-overdue trash out this morning. Getting up at 7:30 may have been destructive to getting "enough" sleep, but at least it meant I could putter around the house a bit, walk to the office (go me), and still get in promptly at 9:30. But there's still so much cleaning and straightening I could do around the house... and I have someone coming over to meet with me in the evening tomorrow (about bar mitzvah invitations).
So much to do. I could write a whole additional post... and may, later. For now, instead, I will go drink some more water and get back to my report writing.
And tonight... more snow.
