I brought in some leftover couscous I made last night. Mmmmm.

It’s nice to work in a building where I am actually allowed to take the stairs to my floor instead of the elevator.

It’s a lovely hazy cool morning today. I watched the sun hovering above Mt Rainier on my way across the sound, drank my coffee, listened to Spoon.

Yesterday my manager sat with me for a bit and told me again how awesome I am. Yaaay.

Being broke for five months completely cured me of my shopping habit. By that I mean shopping for anything I don’t really need, like jewelry, handbags, makeup, etc. I totally don’t care anymore.

Which comes just in time for us to get keys to our house today. This weekend we will be purchasing Brian’s dream television. There’s no furniture to place it on yet, but it should be on the way. From IKEA, natch.

Slow news day: CNN is covering a fight at a high school. Yeah. Seriously. Like a prison riot, only with teens! God help this stupid country.

Someone in the newsroom just said, “we don’t cover suicides.” Ruh roh.
