Sunday: a Very Quiet Day
May. 23rd, 2021 02:54 pmA.’s zoom with her friend F. was canceled because of post-vaccination tiredness. Since A. was also kind of out of sorts, that turned out fine.
I dropped T. off at O’Neil to see Scoob; R. is now picking him up.
R. got a bike ride, after bring T. home from track. T.’s possible bike ride did not occur due to heat and the other person having plans.
I had some reflux last night. I’m starting to see a pattern: don’t eat pork dishes when drinking is probably the takeaway. I’m not waking up with a headache, so it isn’t too much alcohol per se. Nor am I developing any other major symptoms that would indicate a full food intolerance. But there is something about (too much) pork while drinking that does not work for me. Alternatively, if I’m eating pork while drinking, I overeat (a very real possibility!).
I read _A Borrowing of Bones_ by Paula Munier, which is our book group selection. It was really enjoyable. The beginning is one of the best beginnings ever, which if you read the acknowledgements a the end, sort of makes sense, as it was originally written to be an Example of how to write a Beginning, that then became a full book (!!!). In any event, lots of foodie references, and a decent mystery, complicated extended families, etc. Extremely white, however. But if you love a mystery with a lot of dog in it, this is for you! Not sure how the discussion will go; this one might peter out pretty quick, if we all liked it but we don’t have much to say about it.
I’ve now read several books in pretty rapid succession (the latest Amanda Quick / JAK, Stacey Abrams’ _While Justice Sleeps_, and _A Borrowing of Bones_). I’m starting a fourth, working back through books bought in the past but not yet read. It’s nice not to have another DNF.
