Jun. 27th, 2016 10:46 amCirque du Soleil was absolutely worth going to. I want to be able to do trampoline tricks! At least with a trampoline, you bounce when you land. (Or not, but if not, it's on purpose, and several other people have helped you not do it.) I might not be so afraid of falling if I knew I could bounce when I landed.
Other weekend fun stuff included the Harvard Book Store warehouse sale, which I got out of with only eight books (mostly because I walked 20 minutes from Harvard Square to get to the warehouse and knew that walking 20 minutes back with more books than I could carry comfortably would have been a Very Bad Idea). But it was absolutely worth going, and I'll have to keep that in mind because they seem to have a warehouse sale in the winter too. And now I own How to Cook Everything Fast, and an actual English dictionary, and three books I've had on the list for ages (the English translation of HHhH, Georgiana, and When Books Went to War), and three other books for just because (The Death of Woman Wang, Medical Muses, and The Thirteenth Turn).
Come to think of it, the dictionary is pretty much for just because, too. I can't remember the last time I needed an English dictionary. Oh well, it was cheap and I can use it to pad the hammer the next time I need to pound on a bookshelf without damaging it. I do remember the last time that situation came up, although it was the TV stand, not a bookshelf.
As much as I hate wearing socks in the summer, I'm going to have to because I can't walk home in any of the sandals I currently own without getting a prize case of blisters. But I hate wearing socks in the summer.
My watch seems to have stopped. Harumpf. I guess I better get it a new battery.
