And we carry on...

So it's Thursday night, and life has continued / is continuing to be ... life. After that incredibly harsh start, the week has actually shaped up to be not too overwhelmingly evil. I did (a bit) of knitting. I read one really terrific book (No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency - I know I'm late to the bandwagon, but DAMN that's a great book!), and started another (The Great Gatsby - yup, I'm 36 and never read it. It's a boring plot but incredibly well-written so I don't care it's a boring plot). I've cooked some meals, done lots of work, watched some hockey, played some WoW, and even paid (most of) the bills. Of course, I got kicked by an IBS attack this evening but nothing I can't handle. Tea and a bagel is a perfectly acceptable dinner.

Tomorrow will be a Good Day! I'm going in to the office ungodly early to get my day's work cleared off in an hour and a half before I traipse off to Excel-2000-Intermediate training for the day. Woot! School day! And me with a half-knit sock, woohoo! And then, and then - BLISS - I'm spending the evening with Yumi. Yumi is like the original Coca-Cola of friends - life is better with Yumi (also mildly addictive... ok, that needs a side note).

Side Note: Coca-Cola is made in part from coca leaves. Nowadays they extract the cocaine part and just keep the flavouring. For more information on this and other neat ethno-botanical stuff, read "One River" by Wade Davis. It's cool.

And then it will be the weekend, with all that entails. And we carry on.
