Libraries will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no libraries.

I'm cutting back on my packing already, because that's what I do, and anyway, this week, it's about all I can do. I had a book packed, but now it won't fit in my carry-on (since I have to carry a pharmacy worth of meds in there), so I broke down and installed an e-reader program on my Palm. It's not the ebook solution that I crave, but it'll have to do for now. I downloaded a copy of the book I had borrowed from K to take with me: The Devil Wears Prada. By the time the day to leave rolls around, I'll be down to a wallet and a pair of clean underwear in my pants pocket.

I finally got a new cellphone today, but whether or not I like it remains to be seen. I have two weeks to play around with it and return it, if I want, so I'll have to test out all its little bugs. It's a slider phone, and black, so it looks very cool.

The Chum called me from Maine before, which was very nice; she hadn't heard from me via email in 24 hours, she said, so she wanted to make sure I was okay and hadn't just randomly gone and had some other organ removed. Awww.

I started this entry a few hours ago; then R got here and I've mostly just left it and remembered to finish it now, but now I'm sleepy and I don't remember what all was rolling around in my head all day. Tomorrow promises to be an interesting day; I'll write a report for you when I get home in the evening.
