So.

Apparently I needed sleep. Nine-thirty to seven? Nice. Thank you, body. I love how you have a mind of your own.

I encountered an attitude this morning that surprised and upset me. Not that I should have been surprised; it's an oft-encountered one, at least in certain circles, but I didn't really expect to see it in mine. Interesting.

Everyone should go read A.A.Milne's Once Upon a Time.

Today will be a day containing much Hot Tea.

Bring on the snow.

When the day needs improvement, do the following:

* buy jewelry

(Beautiful ring on order from the Silver Jewelry Club; amethyst, just what I've been wanting.)

* eat chocolate

(made some killer brownies; gooey on the bottom, mint cream cheese in the middle, and melted chocolate on top)

* find enjoyment in your work

(friendly interactions, grateful patrons, minor miracles performed, skills put to use)

* make a happy discovery

(It's no problem to drink the amount of water I should when I've eaten corned beef! Ah, salt.)
