My ears are all full of water. I swam this morning (1 mile), and Ted and I went to Gwennie’s for breakfast/brunch,and it was quite good. And now I’m … procrastinating, pretty much. I should be doing some writing, and I’ll probably get around to it in a while, but I’m, er. What am I doing? Oh. Looking for Shane’s phone number so I can call him to tell him when the puppy is coming in. *calls Shane* Hm. That particular bit of procrastination is now taken care of. Although…

pea soup
Boy, I just made an excellent batch of pea soup. Sadly, Ted doesn’t like pea soup, so he can’t appreciate its excellence, but I assure you, it’s really very good.

I scanned a few pictures of Breic. I ate a Russian tea cake in one bite and got powdered sugar all over myself…
