So... Brunch was canceled.
Not hugely surprising (although part of me is wondering how many of the brunch regulars trekked out to the H&C despite the cancellation.
I, for one, went back to bed and slept until noon.
"Noon". Strictly speaking, my body still thinks it's 11am, but what can you do. (And this is insane. Daylight savings time should be abolished. Period.). :-P
Anyway. Aside from sleeping heavily, I have accomplished a couple of things this morning.
1) I wrote a letter to my sister. Which I haven't done in quite some time. So with any luck that'll get to her just fine and I'll have a letter (e-mail) back in a few days. :-)
2) I re-organized my office bookshelf.
I took a bunch of stuff downstairs to the dining room shelves, and re-organized what was left.
Top shelf: Ritual Studies + Starhawk, Carol Christ, + other Pagan Primary Sources and Goddess Secondary Sources (Wendy Griffin, Cynthia Eller, etc).
Second shelf: Sex, Gender, Sexuality, women's bodily stuff (birth and menstruation, but also a few other things), Goddess Poetry, and books on how to write fiction (mostly).
Third shelf: Women & Religions stuff (classics, like Mary Daly & Merlin Stone + compilations like Her Voice, Her Faith and Feminist Poetics of the Sacred), + various dictionaries (Oxford Canadian + English/French, English/German & English/Russian).
I still need to find a spot for my various divination cards but, none the less, I'm quite pleased with how my shelf turned out. :-)
Paul is doing some pre-tax spring cleaning, too. Going through his drawers full of receipts and sorting out the stuff he can toss vs the stuff he needs to keep for tax (or other) purposes.
I think I'm going to do some baking today. And/or make some pancakes. :-)
Mmmm... Pancakes... :-) (I've got frozen raspberries, and so might do raspberry muffins[1] or something. I think it could be good. :-)
Anyway. Must bustle off to get some food into me, some way, some how. :-)
- TTFN,
- Amazon. :-)
[1] While at Torrain and TheWeasleKing's housewarming party, I found out that you can substitute apple sauce for about half the oil in a cake recipe. It occurs to me that this (A) would work with raspberry sauce, too, and (B) would make for some awesome raspberry muffins without making them totally soupy and/or prone to falling apart. Hurrah! :-)
