Full moon stuff: I wasn't on-call, so I did not have to deal with the woman whom I had talked to the previous week. She had no money last week, so she did not bring the cat in. Sadly for Dr. M, she decided on Christmas day that the cat had to be seen, even though she still had no money. Good way to save money there, ma'am.
Today I am reminded that Safeway's produce department is, as they say, "teh suck". I went to find stuff with which to make fruit salad, but they have no mangoes, no peaches, no grapes, no bananas ripe enough to eat right now that are not so ripe they should just be made into bread.
Nobody warned me that the ending of the Dark Materials trilogy is a very sad thing that makes me sad. Bad monkeys! So I am cheering myself back up by reading the sequel to New Coyote, Coyote Season. Coyote always makes me laugh.
It is snowing again. It is knee-deep and coming down like crazymad. Very pretty. Sadly, the 4-wheel drive linkage in the work truck seems to be getting cranky. Hopefully I will not get stuck out in the middle of nowhere in a snowbank.
Now I eat dinner.
That is all.
