magidFor ArtsFirst, someone brought out a set of dorm furniture, putting it on the grass in the Yard with a sign on a nearby tree: "The Public Life of Private Spaces." The furniture has gone now, but the sign remains, and still seems apropos, though with a slightly different emphasis for "private."
A new Diana Wynne Jones book is out! Great excitement (tempered with a pang: Elka would've loved to have read it). Not only that, but Joan Bauer is coming out with a new book next month, too. Yay!
I seem to have managed to misplace my T pass last night while running errands. Incredibly annoying. It's one of the problems I can throw money at, but still annoying. At least it's the right month, with so few commuting days left for me. (I should post on the bulletin board at work to ask for a May pass once the month is over, since I'll need it for getting a discount on the car insurance.)
A use for kudzu: reducing drinking (of alcohol, of course). And here I'd thought of it as just a pestilential weed.
I ran into an orker on the train last night, someone I barely know. Of course, he defaulted to TV chat, at which I'm fairly useless. And I don't know anything about sports, either. I don't mind, except sometimes I feel awkward about not being able to do social chat on the most usual topics.
My left knee has been acting up for days now, not the usual twinges that the kneecap might move, but something else, that seems more random, though perhaps linked to twisting sorts of movement. I so do not need this right now, when I'm going to be schlepping luggage in a couple of days. It also makes me feel old. Sigh.
