Monday (long weekend!)
Jan. 15th, 2007 11:37 amI took this year off from Arisia. I'll go next year, but the combination of membership cap, new hotel, personal budget and Mongolian Death Cold just wasn't working out for me this year.
Since I have today off, I'm contemplating doing something useful, like maybe going and buying another pair of jeans. I'm down to one wearable pair, one pair that will fit again if I lose 10 pounds, and one pair I have to wear bike shorts under due to shredding inseams, if I wear them at all (they used to be my painting/cleaning/etc. jeans).
Of course, if I'm going to go anywhere today, that means I have to go shower and put some presentable clothes on, and go out in the rain. I'm not terribly excited about any of those things. Maybe I'll stay in and make minestrone instead. (This is brought on by a craving for vegetables, and the realization that the minestrone I bought at Trader Joe's the other day had sugar (OK, "organic evaporated cane juice") in it, and I really don't like added sugar in soup.)
