sereneStayed up until 3:30 or so last night. After I was done working the pleasant contract job I'm on, I just goofed around for a few hours because I could. I don't do it often, but it was nice. Then this morning I awoke at 9 and thought, "What the hell. I'll stay up, get some stuff done, and go to bed early tonight." So I stayed up, got some stuff done, and I'm going to bed early.
Oh, some of the stuff I got done:
Made a lovely lentil-and-ham soup from the leftover ham, some lentils, a bay leaf, a tiny bit of crushed red pepper, a pinch of fines herbs, and some sherry.
Walked to Ashby BART flea market with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
someotherguy. We've decided we want to try to go to every BART station eventually, so we BARTed to North Berkeley and walked from there back home (another 3 miles or so), stopping on the way for shopping and lunch. I got someotherguy his xmas present, and we bought several books at rock-bottom prices. I got a Lynda Barry book, a book of Neil Gaiman's short stories, a Dorothy Allison, and I can't remember what else. Oh, and a Dar Williams CD at the thrift store for two dollars. The boy got a Capital Steps CD and I don't remember what else. It was cold and sunny out, and the walk was lovely, as was the cheap Chinese food we got at Long Life Vegi.
And now I shall grab a book, go to bed, and dream of what I know not. And then I will wake up and go hang withstonebender tomorrow. I was gonna do some more work, but I'm wiped, so off I go. It's a good life. Hope your weekend was lovely.

Date: 2005-11-28 09:32 am (UTC)"Smoke & Mirrors"? *Fabulous* book. I particularly like the story about the cat that keeps the devil at bay...
Just got my hands on his newest, "Anansi Boys", but haven't had time to read it yet.
