Today I feel like being exactingly perfect. Well, okay. I can deal with that, I think. Woke up this morning at 8:30 to do laundry (the laundry room services the entire complex; it's really hard to get a machine unless you time it well. And I needed two), then made black tea and went to breakfast at Bruff, where they had these little puff pastry braidy things with pecans on them that I really like and that I haven't seen since getting back to school, then got my laundry out of the dryer and spent a long time folding everything, including my sheets. I like folding sheets. It makes me feel accomplished.

Also, my linen drawer smells like vanilla. I keep meaning to put my jeans and socks in there, but I keep forgetting, so I'm still partially living out of my suitcase. Oh, well. It's a good place to throw various pieces of clothing into when I have to change quickly.

My cousin's having a baby boy! (Also, apparently when she went to Japan last month, she was so happy that no one could be angry at her, although apparently my mother brought my grandmother around to the idea that M. was having a baby out of wedlock with an African-American man instead of a nice Japanese man or a Caucasian, and then my grandmother brought my grandfather around. No update on how my aunt and uncle are dealing with this, but according to my mother, who just talked to my grandmother a few nights ago, it all appears to be working out.)

I shall knit her a baby blanket. I'm glad I got green, it's a nice color for a boy or a girl.
