never go home

Miles and I have been spending this past week indoors for the most part. Except for a trip to see the Durham Bulls (without Miles) and a journey to the mountains (with Miles). We would’ve camped but trying to control Miles and set up a tent at the same time would be a little tough. Plus it wasn’t that much cooler out in the mountains. Oh, and then there was the car that had its window smashed at the trailhead. Also Miles got loose during our hike and I reached out to grab him and got his tail. So to answer some questions posed earlier. I am:
* reading The Yiddish Policemen’s Union STILL…I really like this book but I’ve been trying to finish this book for a while…less than 100 pages to go
* eating various tempeh burger concoctions involving cooking up slices of tempeh in various sauces from the fridge and then sometimes adding cheese and fake bacon to the sandwich.
* drinking too much caffeine in the form of hot beverages which I am strangely attracted to even during this hot weather
* watching lots of dvr, netflix, and movie rentals including Dead Like Me which is a TV series from Showtime about a girl who is a grim reaper and the Matthew Barney documentary, No Restraint, about his latest flim/artwork that takes place on a Japanese whaling ship and involves lots of petroleum jelly molds of objects. I also watched Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy because I heard the Fresh Air episode with Paul Rudd and he talks about how that film was the first movie he did with Judd Apatow. I also watched the first disc of the second season of Weeds which continues to be great fun.
* working at my new job which isn’t as fun as watching all that tv but pays better
* dreaming about elm (she’s arriving home in a couple of hours)
* contemplating going back to school and having to introduce myself during sharing time…
