Tuesday night
Jan. 21st, 2003 11:50 pmThere's a new produce market just down the road. They have a sign out front with their daily sale prices. I've become convinced that they reach into a drawer every morning and pull out a number, take it outside and stick it up as the first digit for the price of lettuce. Every single day it's different, and it ranges from $.59 to $.89 to $.99 to $.79 to $.59 to $.69 to $.89, etc. I don't know why I'm so amused by it, but I've found myself watching the price rise and fall and it makes me smile every time. And I still haven't even been in the store.
We went to Lexington again, hospital visiting. Apparently the plan is back with a pacemaker, but the whole thing is more worrying than I was assuming when they first took him back to the hospital. I always seem to be behind in figuring that out, it seems. In any case, I'm going to assume that he'll be fine.
I've been reading journals today. I have a bookmark folder full of links to people I read every couple of weeks or so that I haven't bothered adding to my friends list. I'm so weird that way. You'd think it'd be much easier to add them and read entries as they're posted, wouldn't you? Maybe I should have made that my New Year's Resolution. By now it also feels silly to change the system, though. *grin* For some reason, I keep thinking that one of my mud friends should start a journal. I don't even know why. One of her good friends (someone else in my bookmark folder.. haha) is also trying to get her started at it. She must seem like the journaly type.
Magnus and I have started talking about the possibilities of moving to Lexington again. We were into the idea for a brief while as I was finishing college.. back when we assumed that I would find a job soon. We were half enamored of moving into an apartment and worrying about a job when we got there for a while, but essentially we're too cautious to do such a thing. We also have that desire to stay where we are now as we both like the small town thing. But.. at the same time it might be fun to live in a city for a while, even if Lexington isn't exactly a huge place. So.. no clue about how that will turn out and when it might go somewhere, but it's something interesting to think about.
Also, we've decided to spend at least an hour a day on self-improvement time. For me, that includes learning swedish, which I'm determined to work on more seriously for a while. It's just so hard to stay motivated.. but I'm going to really try this time. I have a few software games and things, plus a few sites that I'm planning on reading regularly and Magnus is supposed to start working at grammar lessons. Wonder how long this will last?
