So today I was going to sleep in no matter what, since my last several attempts at such had been inadvertantly foiled by the well-meaning. birdmojo very considerately got up and went downstairs at 7ish, without even waking me. And then my internal alarm clock went off at the completely unusual time of 7:55 and demanded I get up and start doing stuff already. So far today, I have: gone out for breakfast, read the last 3/4 of one of the half-dozen books I was in the middle of, practiced my saxophone, and washed the dishes. In a little bit, I think I will do laundry and either finish another book or maybe sew and watch the rest of the Branagh _Hamlet_.

I'm so blessed contrary I won't even do what I tell me to.

Hee! I didn't know you played a saxophone!

I used to play in a community band, even, though I'm not appropriately scheduled to do that anymore ... but! I am going to sit in with them for 6 concerts in June; this requires me to practice very much more than I have been.

And this post just let me know that Branagh's Hamlet came out on DVD sometime when I wasn't looking.

I need that!

You do! (I realized it was due back way later than my Deepak Mehta trilogy, so I ended up watching _Fire_ instead... but it is teh awesome! I remember going to see it in the theater way back in 96...)

I tell you to go do ANYTHING other than go read more of my writing. ;-) (It probably works better when it's subtle, huh?)

Eh heh. Generally, yes. Because I would have to think you meant it, and I don't really think you mean it, nor would I particularly WANT you to convince me you did.
