i haven't much to say here. my days have settled into a kind of dull rhythm. i cook dinner a lot - which actually gives me a sense of purpose. i clean and organize. i yell at errant birdies (of which there are a few)...and that's about all.

i just finished reading memoirs of a geisha. it was a bit of a disappointment. i was really enjoying it - but the end surprised me. and not in a good way. i was let down. though the writing was really beautiful, in the end...nada.

that's about all. ta-ta.
