I am trying not to feel too much self-loathing in this entry, even though this is an emotion that comes very easily to me, because it's even less interesting than my regular commentary and who wants to read people beating up on themselves all the time.

I accomplished absolutely nothing today, aside from
a.) clean pants
b.) a fuckton of veggie burgers, which took forever to make and have served as a reminder of why I hate forming patties (they never stick together or fall apart when I'm trying to cook them or both), but which will hopefully be delicious
c.) scheduling a physical, which I guess is an accomplishment since I haven't been to the doctor in a couple-three years since I haven't had insurance in a couple-three years. I am feeling trepidated about this, less because of my doctor (whom I like) than because I'm scared shitless of finding out that I have something horribly wrong.

Apropos of the above, some ( TMI: )

I had been planning to go to PSG tonight, finally, but there was a shitton of fog and it was dark, which is not a good combination. It wasn't the worst fog I've ever driven in, but it was enough to make me say SHIT I DON'T THINK THIS IS A GOOD IDEA and turn around once I hit Chandler (next town over).

Oh, and I'm re-reading Mythology (Edith Hamilton), which was one of my favorites as a kid (and now). As an adult, revisiting the introduction is interesting; it's a little dated, since theories of what myths are for have changed over time, and there's been a lot more in the way of anthropological treatments of Greek religion. Still, this book on the whole has aged really well for me.

Finally (last but not least): Happy birthday,
