stuff and nonsense

dchenesIt rained all day yesterday, and I spent most of yesterday in a bad mood again. Today it's only overcast and windy, and occasionally the sun breaks through.
I don't know what the deal is exactly, but I seem to want to be mostly vegetarian these days, with emphasis on the vegetables. I've been eating cucumbers for breakfast for the last couple of weeks. Maybe I'm missing some sort of nutrient and I should start taking vitamins (which is a good idea in theory, but I hate taking pills).
I've discovered, through having my windows open most of the time these days, that my neighbors on both sides have kids under 10. One side has grandkids, actually, but the fact remains, I'm up to my ankles in kids on weekends.
I wish I had money to play with. I keep trying to rein in my desire to acquire Stuff by reminding myself that I'll have to pack all the Stuff again sooner than I'd like, and I'd really like it all to fit in the same size truck it fit in on the way out here. That works most of the time, but sometimes I still wish I could just go out and buy something and not have to figure out which month's credit card bill it's going on. I refuse to get into credit card debt; there's nothing that expensive I need that badly. My threshold of "expensive" has slipped down considerably, too; I still haven't bought sneakers because I can't bring myself to spend that much money. The way it's going, I had better stay in Boston for at least a couple of extra days in August so I can do things like go to the New Balance outlet. (Which brings up the whole job-and-plane-tickets quandary again, but I'm not going there today, dammit.)
I obviously have an inferior rhyming dictionary. It won't admit that "quandary" rhymes with "laundry". (Does it rhyme with anything else?)
I haven't written a limerick in ages. Come to think of it, I haven't written anything just for the sake of writing in ages.
