As Least the Cat's Not on Fire

Whoosh.

That's the sound of the beginning of the new year.

My long vacation was wonderful and busy and yet I don't feel like I got a thing done. No regrets though. None that I can think off, at least. I recently made a tea order through Adagio which has supplied me with plenty of tea: a black called Golden Spring; about 8 chai mixes; 4 green teas; 1 white; and one based on my zodiac (Virgo) which is flowery but doesn't seem as bad as straight chamomile to me. I also got a new infuser with a mug. Perhaps I'll begin testing now *goes to make tea*. I just realized the infuser doesn't have holes on the bottom so about a quarter of inch of water remains in it. Do people think when they made these things?

The music I've been waiting a month or so for hasn't arrived yet. If it's not at my parents' place by Saturday then we'll be contacting the seller. I don't think it's his fault or anything, and maybe we're just being extra anxious cause we've already waited so long. It's making me a little crazy.

I took two books out of the library for reading over my vacation (as if I needed more books). The first I started on vacation, Thinking Straight and finished on Tuesday. Maybe I'll do a write up on my other blog. I just started the second book, Leave Myself Behind on Wednesday and I'm probably 2/3 the way done, maybe a little less. Definitely over half. It's an easy read and it's interesting. They are due back on Tuesday, so I need to be done by then anyways.

I may be getting sick, or I may just be tired and have slight sniffles. Aside from visiting with friends I'm relaxing this weekend, so hopefully I will nip whatever it is in the butt.

Any deep thoughts have been replaced by exhaustion, so maybe later.
