magicbeans. nothing if not awkward.

one of the things that chris.k said last night was that the cold, rainy weather had completely ruined his mood for the whole day. it was raining again this morning, but then cleared up, and by noon it was sunny. and i didn't want to go outside at all. as if stepping out into that sunlight would ruin my day.

and it didn't. but it was uncomfortable. there's something safe about the library. surrounded by all those books.

we drove out to a korean market in east providence tonight, bought some oriental pasta, lotus root. chris bought a rice cooker. so rice is now always a starch option for dinner. made the first batch tonight, and some stir-fry to go with it.

put up a summer to do list, based on the one that sonali had made for herself last summer. the same two things every day, basically. one: write a poem. two: make a picture. the list itself was my poem and picture for today. which is sort of a cop-out, but you have to start somewhere.
