Afternoon update

One of those days where I seem to be floating in a state of suspended animation, hovering in a timeless void...

only it's not like that at all, really. It's just a cool, grey day where the light and the temperature aren't changing so it's hard to detect the passage of time. A bunch of grad students have been partying on the back porch--nothing rowdy, just some mildly inebriated twenty- and thirty-somethings chattering away and grilling an assortment of the kinds of foods people grill at summer parties. They're all wearing jackets, though, since today doesn't feel like summer at all.

Nothing exciting or even remotely interesting to report otherwise. Stayed up much too late chatting, reading e-mails, and then reading a book (checked out Ben Elton's Dead Famous because the fish on the cover kept staring at me). Oh, one note to the world in general: Never expect me to "agree to disagree" until I know what the disagreement is about. Thank you.

most unexpected for may 22 to be so danged cold. glad the partiers went ahead with their cookout. let's hope we get a little sunshine for the revelry over the weekend, eh? (no, i'm not going to be involved in any, but there'll be thousands who will be!)

another grey world

I agree to disagree all the time, but I hope that doesn't make me amiably disagreeable. I know that floating feeling, but then the anchor pulls....:)

I hate not knowing what the disagreement is about.
