Settling in, and rambling away
I've moved my stuff over to Annie's place, which is fairly cozy. A bit smallish, but for one person it's fine - most of the space issues have to do with the fact that she's already got her stuff here. She was nice enough to set up her drawing table so I could use my sewing machine on it, and there's a very nice setup to connect my computer to the speakers and the Internet. Her dog is perhaps a bit on the big side, but very well-behaved and sweet. If I was planning on getting a dog I'd want one like her.
It's a nice enough day here in Barrow, too - sunny, 60 degrees or so, very little wind. Lots of mosquitoes, but then, you can't have everything.
About, oh, seven or eight years ago, when I was hanging out at my then-best-friend's house, I picked up one of her (many) Baby-Sitters' Club books just for something to read. The particular one was Mary Anne's Bad Luck Mystery, and while I've always been a fast reader, I only got through two-thirds of it before Kristine (my friend) decided she wanted to *do* something. I never got around to finishing it, and I've occasionally wondered what happened to Mary Anne and the rest of the BSC crew. So guess what was on the giveaway table at the library today? Admittedly, I've had the opportunity to read the rest of the story before now, but I never quite had the time...so I finally figured "hey, why not?", picked it up, and read the whole thing in a couple of hours. So I finally know what happens now. Yay me. =)
Day off tomorrow. I'm probably going to run a few boxes down to the post office, start my new sewing project and get some groceries. Or maybe I'll just stay here and read all day. Who knows?
Going now. Carry on, everyone.
