Saturday, January 8th, 2011 01:36 pmSo after a little episode Wednesday night of scatter-brain and Johnson Spot Blindness ('Where's Silver Diamond 3? I know I brought it upstairs because it's not on the downstairs shelf any more. But it's not in the bedroom. It's not in the study. It's not on the kitchen table. Ohhh what did I doooo with it?') Thursday evening I picked it off the downstairs shelf where it was all along (SD has the most invisibly ignorable spines I've ever seen) and read it in an hour. It breaks off a good breaking point but this is no consolation. I itch for more, to the extent last night of looking at the prices posted in the discount air fares shop on my way home (snowing lightly so I walked) and calculating 'mhh $350 to New York I could go for a day even I mean people *do* right?'
Then went and started Halfway to Paradise 2, which is no kind of distraction. Just not my fave Ima series, and the hero gives me hives with his greasy long hair and his sunglasses and his exuberant seme puppyishness. Le sigh. (So read that Silk Roads one of hers you bought in the summer, twit.)
Have started taking my contact lenses out early and reading manga the rest of the evening. Winter dry eye and cataract mean the lenses are a constant frustration for close work. And it's just so *easy* without them. Probably a good thing, because after Feb 1 I'll be in glasses anyway.
( The weather, as ever )
