*that's the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me! 2001-07-19 10:56 p.m.*

i'm spending the night at michael's tonight, which should be fun.

today was vaguely odd. i went to selby gardens and volunteered in the bookshop in the morning. but the volunteer that wasn't supposed to show up did, so i tried to read in the office but fell asleep on my book.

after my lunch of a main bar provolone pickle tomato black olive on white pita bread sandwich, i went to the museum. the artwork these days is really cool. it's by lynne cherry, and i heart children's book illustrations so much. when i was in cambridge the fitzwilly had a great exhibit of children's book art. i saw real eric carles and real quentin blakes and real shirley hugheses, and real lots of other artists i didn't know. it was way exciting. and in ork, the museum had an book exhibit as well. but more like book as art, rather than illustration as art. i wanted to get this cute little flip book they had (50 copies) called ships passing in the night, but for some reason that last copy had just one ship and that was not exciting, so i got a different one called like little petal or something, of a flower growing. less exciting, but still cute. mmm... books... *drool*

tsk showed up, oddly enough. turns out he's volunteering at the museum tomorrow. his first day. we were very civil to each other. he brought up my weakness, michalson, who he likes, so you know i had to get all starry-eyed and gooey about the best professor ever.

anyway, i had a good time, writing a letter to james and reading this awesome book of unitarian's views on world issues. i do think i'm a wee bit more british unitarian than american uu, but i don't know how to explain it.

and then home again home again jiggity jog. and i talked to the landlord for the boy house. it's already rented but another unit is still available. a new college student has apparently been living there. but yeah, i hope i get it. i'm seeing it tomorrow. i wish i had more money, but my husband will take care of it. that's too funny that i just said that. but yeah, he's paying rent till i get my scholarship checks in. but it's frustrating, because i'd like to just be able to say, "i'll take it." but he's like taking applications and stuff. so i wouldn't just be able to take it anyway.

michael and i were going to go to ybor to play at an '80's night with buttercup, but we wound up deciding we'd be too tired. but in the meanwhile i in a frantic fit of desparation called ponyluv to ask for a right to michael's. but she couldn't. and now since we're not going to ybor, michael's picking me up and we're hanging out at hers.

i was going to take a nap while i wated but i so very wanted to talk to james. so i called her, but there was no answer, so i left a message, and she called me back and we had a fantastic conversation that ended with her telling me i was special "and not in an education kind of way." yay! so sweet! hee!

and now i'm just piddling around online till michael shows up.

g'night.
