ME!

I'm sitting inside, window open with a breeze, fan on as well. The heat of mid-day melts me. I know that that must sound pitiful for those suffering winds and frigid weather but the heat bothers me. Next week I hope to be in the Central Valley. 70s is better than humid mid-80s.

So ... maybe a week of traveling or exploring after two weeks of resting that followed 3 weeks of travel.

Then home. Then my reading on the 12th. plus the Olympics and a Film Fest (in Missoula). By March...

Still haven't firmed up plans for Springtime in Europe. If I want to go I must plan soon. Cheap tickets have a way of disappearing for those who wait. But ... it could be expensive if I include a month in Norway so must know how much money I have March 3rd and how much I'll be left with June 3rd.

Yes, I know how to plan, scrimp and save. It's just stressful.

And today I found out I'm Severus Snape.
