I actually took a vacation from work and the computer for four whole days. It was great, here is what I did: I built a leaf compost, raked many leaves, put a screen door on the back door, built and stained shelves, cleaned the house, washed the floors (except for the kitchen), took the dogs out for hamburgers, made a screens for my bedroom windows, finally watched O Brother, Where Art Thou?, entertained a boy, watched Secretary, slept a lot, saw the first half Aida (the Disney musical) which was so offensive, I threw up during intermission. Caleb, thank you for the tickets. The second best thing that I did on my mini-vacation was read the new Laurell K. Hamilton book twice; Anita has sex with two vampires and a werewolf in this one. The best thing I did this weekend, the aforementioned boy.
