Mom Boss had a childcare emergency (and Aunt Boss is on vacation) so I'm at work alone today. This is not a huge issue, but it does mean we have to put off lease documents another day, and also the occasional flurries of overlapping phone calls get awkward to deal with. At least we have a functional hold and transfer system, plus three lines -- it would be impossible to manage otherwise.

Hmm. What else...

I got my dates mixed up for a Child Psychology assignment, which is annoying.

One of my overwintered peppers has a ripening fruit, and several of the new-this-year peppers are gearing up to bloom. This pleases me. :)

I caught up with Cat, Susan, and Vicky over the phone this weekend.

And... that's about it.

Now back to the salt mines!

This week's English assignment is to read Arthur Miller's "Death of a Salesman" and submit the notes I take while reading it.

I read that play in high school and was not terribly impressed then. I suspect I will not be terribly impressed now, either. Too many men being idiots for no good reason, plus what I consider the cardinal sin of modern litfic and literary drama: writers being too concerned about Themes(TM) and not paying nearly enough attention to entertainment.

(Which is doubly annoying because "The Crucible" is an absolute stem-winder, so I know Miller could do entertainment (and a reasonable percentage of female characters) when he wanted to bother. *sigh*)
