boring!

yes, dulldullandmoredull is exactly what this blog is. as my momma always says 'boring is as boring does'. or was that forrest gump?
but i'm soaking up the whole 'people buying me meals' thing with a vengeance. at least for as long as this inability to hold a job prevails. yesterday was thai food thanks to s. this morning perkins with a, as a thank you for picking her up at the auto shop. then tonight i get the first-time pleasure of real sushi with c. yep, at least i won't starve. (as if there's ever any imminent danger of that happening!)
yesterday, i suppose, was not so boring with the unnecessary excitement and tragedy in london. i'm happy to say that all my pals across the pond have checked in and are doing okay. my thoughts and prayers are with you all. i really don't know what to think of it. it's even more far-removed than 9/11, but it shouldn't be. admittedly, i just happened to have the tv on that morning & saw the live footage before i hurried off to teach the second class of my career. this is not just something that happened in a distant, far off land. it affects us all, just as the g8 & its outcome should also be of importance. i'm really far too uninformed on matters of global policy and involvement and there's no excuse for that at all!
