- It has rained heavily for most of the last couple of days. This is pleasing, as we've had a very dry winter and that makes me worry. (I worry a lot about unseasonable weather. It's much like I worry about the bees.)
- Yesterday, I decided to try to buy letter-writing stationery, in order to write letters. Not cards - you can't write a proper letter on a card - but semi-fancy paper and envelopes. Which is apparently a thing that barely exists anymore. I did finally find some, but surely that used to be a thing you could find more easily.
( - I also discovered the Letter Writers Alliance, which sells on their website a plastic pigeon that you can somehow put a letter in and send it through the mail. Fortunately, the pigeon costs $30, which is a bit steep. That is the only reason I have not already ordered one.)
- I've started listening to Gallifrey again, because it seemed like a good idea at the time, and am partway through series 2. And spent my dinner break listening to Pandora, which I had forgotten was the one that contains the Thing That Happens To Wynter. Let me tell you, trying to eat during the Thing That Happens To Wynter is not the best plan I ever had.
- So, the Kingston library is starting a monthly Crafternoon, which I get to co-lead. Which is awesome, because it means I will get paid for knitting. However, there was apparently some kind of miscommunication and it got listed on our website as being on the 27th and in the community newsletter as being on the 20th. So we're going to do it twice this month! Whee!
