V sunny day today, v nice, am cleaning office because of a) critical orange juice spill two weeks ago on desk and b) overabundance of dust and c) needs a fresher smell in here.

I have thousands of back issues to file and am burning archive cds. What I want to do is drink tea and listen to Lucinda Williams.

Think I am driving home for Christmas because 1) rental car too expensive and 2) alternative is to go for a week and a half without a car.

Grrrr.
