I have about a dozen good blog post I want to write. I have several started, but alas none of them are happening quite yet. I blame the heat. I am done with 100 degree plus weather. I am ready for fall. Or a really good rainy season. All this heat makes me want to do is float in my blow-up pool and be lazy. I have neglected my bike and my tennis and taken up soft-serve. This is not good news people.
Also I miss Nora Ephron. And I have started ironing my clothes more. I am not sure how these two things are related, but somehow I think Nora is to blame/thank for this change. What will the world be like without Nora? I am not sure I am ready for that answer.
Tomorrow we are having some plumbing work done. Not a fun way to spend a good chunk of change. Tell me it will be worth it in the end. Also, feel free to tell me the most interesting ways you can cook rice and beans since that is all I will be able to afford after I pay off the plummer.
Ok that is all for now. I am heading for the pool. Maybe the cleaning fairy will come while I am gone.
var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push([‘_setAccount’, ‘UA-6740863-2’]); _gaq.push([‘_trackPageview’]); (function() { var ga = document.createElement(‘script’); ga.type = ‘text/javascript’; ga.async = true; ga.src = (‘https:’ == document.location.protocol ? ‘https://ssl’ : ‘http://www’) + ‘.google-analytics.com/ga.js’; var s = document.getElementsByTagName(‘script’)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s); })();
As Nora said, “Whatever you choose, however many roads you travel, I hope that you choose not to be a lady. I hope you will find some way to break the rules and make a little trouble out there. And also I hope you will choose to make some of that trouble on behalf of woman”….so float in your pool, give the plumber a sob story, eat pancakes for dinner and wear your clothes wrinkled!
I just love that photo of your ironing board. It's so…domestic looking. Love it. Anyway, I am feeling just like you about the heat. It may as well be -10 with 2 feet of snow on the ground, I feel so cooped up.
