i'm not sure if this is good or bad...

i woke up not really feeling motivated to get up, so i spent a while lying around in bed reading. eventually, though, i got hungry, and it occurred to me that i had most of the makings for a pizza. now, i've not in general been all that great at pizza-making, so it's always a bit of an adventure, but for some reason, i felt up to it.

( so i got up. )

oh god, i'm so old.

i just had dinner with an old friend and his daughter -- they're in town looking at colleges, of all things. i hadn't met his daughter before, and i was awfully impressed with what a good job he's done. she's not only intelligent, charming, stylish, and polite, but also looks a bit like a young sophie marceau. nice work, clifton!

very young, gentlemen. back off or i'll have to hurt you.

i felt like such an old lady sitting there trying to include her in the conversation and hoping i was coming off as one of dad's *cool* friends. man, oh, man. i am just not ready for my friends to have college-age kids.
