"Women and cats will do as they please and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." - Robert Heinlein

What I am reading:
The Girl in the Tangerine Scarf

What I am watching:
Raines, with Jeff Goldblum.
Not sure they can sustain it but the pilot was riveting.

What I am eating:
Not much. My ears hurt, and my throat is sore, so I feel like I have been subsisting on hot tea. Maybe a banana or some Thin Mints occasionally.

What I am cooking:
Gallons of Guinness beef stew, loaves of soda bread, and a chocolate sheet cake with fudge frosting; chicken with potatoes and peas in coconut milk curry for dinner tonight.

Who I am missing:
Gina.
My lunch hour on Tuesdays has been shifted later, and now I can't even have lunch with her once a week.

What I am writing:
A rewrite of a work proposal, lots of emails, and not much blogwise. Sorry.

What I am doing:
Angsting terribly over the dog.
I am just not sure I am cut out for dog ownership, and I am feeling terribly guilty.
We are giving it a few days – he’s a lovely dog, I just may not be a dog person after all.
Dogs are so damn NEEDY. I knew it, I guess I just didn't KNOW it.
Go on, tell me I am rotten. I can take it.

Off to sort laundry, bake cake and soda bread, vaccuum, straighten, and scrub bathrooms.
Also, feel very guilty.
