It's been quiet here because, well, it's been quiet here. For example, after work today I went to the drugstore for saline for my contact lenses, got two tomato plants and some light groceries around the corner, planted the tomato plants (pictures later), watched the CM season finale and made Chinese beef dumplings, which is a several-hour process what with all the leaving the dough to rise fifty times. After this, I expect to curl up with Bright Young People and my notepad and continue the deathless (!) TEG research reading.

(I did get my new research books in the mail. So I have Vile Bodies, Letters from a Lost Generation, which is probably next, Rites of Spring: The Great War and the Birth of the Modern Age, and a memoir called Jellied Eels and Zeppelins that looks like it was dictated to a journalist by a woman of said generation and published at a very, very small press. It purports to be a window onto Edwardian working-class life, which I need. And even if it's junk, it was only three bucks.)

There is Other Stuff also going on, but it's either not for public consumption or I'm waiting on other people/events/decisions. So instead of all of us being twitchy about it, I'll just talk about all that when I have results to report.

Lucky for you, on Saturday El [livejournal.com profile] wistling has corralled a few of us into another scavenger hunt, this one mostly computer-based, and on Sunday some of the people from the Tenants' Association are cleaning out and replanting the concrete planter outside my building, so there will in fact be signs of life on this LJ.

Soon.

Sometime. *g*

Scavenger hunt's not this Saturday, Leah...it's the 30th-31st. Sorry about the confusion. This weekend, though, is Doors Open, it's a great opportunity to explore the city anyway!

Cheers,
Tony

Ack -- sorry. I transposed the dates, apparently.

Well, I guess my Saturday's free now. *g*
