I love this; Robert Motherwell hanging out during the installation of his exhibit matched with his original installation diagram.

We have been stuck in graduation traffic for 15 minutes - no joke. On elmwood. We could have gotten to Home Depot in that time.

Tonight - we eat these!! 
Also, today = basically the best.  This is why:
Got to sleep in an extra hour
The sun was out early  - and it was hot
Our apt sparkles it’s so clean
Ate the most delicious sushi with the most fabulous friend
Then I got to spend 20 minutes with PUGS!!!!!!  I took pictures, videos, and am back on board with the pug
I joined the public library and took out 2 books
Started reading one
Heard back about my summer internship - found out about all the projects i’ll be doing
We got coasters in the mail from my Grandmother - but not just any coasters; “The coasters of my youth” is how she explained it - every drink had one and you wouldn’t have been caught dead without one!

Jet Blue, you are pissing me right off this fine morning.

How can you not find any upcoming flights when you welcome me with my upcoming flight!?!?! 

Does anyone have any experience with canceling flights with JetBlue? I just read something that said I need to wait until 24 hours before the flight to cancel.  Should I just call?

Re-used love notes are a Wednesday thing
(I write love notes, Seaver usually draws penises and writes “britt smells”)

First day of grad school assessments happen today - they are brought to you by our fancy shower curtain (in light of the fact that I desperately need a shower).
Also, you should all know that in November 2012 I fell out of the shower, tearing down the entire shower surround (we have a claw foot tub).  Our snazzy fabric shower curtains came crashing down and the new surround was too wimpy to handle them.  Yesterday Seaver reinforced said wimpy shower surround and we are BACK IN BUSINESS people!

Today began and ended the same way.

Peacefully.

A slow morning in bed, somewhere between slumber and low chatter.

An eventful evening, clattering away on computer keys at one end of the couch and Seaver reading Gatsby at the other end.
