Grumble. Some days the universe owes us a refund.

On his blog today, Earl imagined what might have happened on our walk if I'd got caught dipping my head in the sprinkler the second time. Unfortunately, I don't know how to make web addresses appear invisibly with a neat here, so I'll do it this way: www.earljwoods.blogspot.com — be sure to check back regularly.

To wear long hair is to rebel.

Planted herbs tonight: dill (lots and lots), marjoram, flat-leaf parsley, salad burnet, mountain mint. Didn't plant my sorrel or lettuce — there's always tomorrow. We also put in broccoli-uckily and lots of tomatoes. Note to self: take up jogging this summer ...

Now reading (handy theft from ecto, but then me, I'm a thief): Up the Down Staircase by Bel Kaufman. Thing Feigned or Imagined by Fred Stenson. Fire Bringer by David Clement-Davies. Also innumerable bits of theory and opinion for my capping project ... tick tick tick tick tick... Looking forward to reading Uncomfortably Numb by Sharon English soon ... once I finish something else ...

Sorry I don't know how to make italics yet ... or underlines...

Today I like: All you zombies. My library card (but not the picture). The rice cooker. A sunny bench. Swimming.

Today I dislike: Harm. Blue roses: blah. :-( The clotted cream that is my brain.

Tomorrow is the PROW 200 midterm. Must proofread one more time ... Remember to dig in the garden: it makes your fingers remember they're alive.

PS: Happy birthday, Dave! You're a wonderful 26-year-old! ;-)
