Well, I&#8217;ll admit, perhaps there is an undue influence of Alice in Wonderland from my childhood going on&#8230;. and really, my only explanation at this point is that the month of December really, really sucked. And when you&#8217;re caught in the undertow, a lot of automatic piloting takes over. (As opposed to Britney Spears, who does not go into the undertow, but skips right past it to Bar Thyself In A Bathroom And Get Put In Restraints.) I&#8217;m excited I figured it out relatively quickly (the horrid cold masked it for a couple weeks), and I&#8217;ll be back to my version of normal soon!<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of bipolar-ness and crazy, the weather here? Is nuts. I guess it&#8217;s snowing right now. Yesterday and the day before were near 60 degrees. Lemme tell you, as a gal who likes relative consistency and does not enjoy being told to be flexible, I would like the weather to be consistent with the season we are in. Currently, and I feel the need to state this since apparently nobody TOLD the weather, it is WINTER. This does not mean we need a season of ice, of drifts of snow (though I do miss snow to some extent&#8230;)  But chilly weather is ok. Good even. Our grass is confused. My wardrobe is confused. I am confused. (Ok, maybe that&#8217;s the ACE-inhibitors talking.)<\/p>\n<p>Well, I&#8217;m off to eat lunch at that restaurant where, after dining there a year ago, my credit card was suddenly used to purchase ads in newspapers all around the country. (I see you out there. You think I don&#8217;t learn!) The food is awesome, and I haven&#8217;t been back there since The Incident. (Which, by the way, I did some sleuthing on, in an attempt to find the fuckers, but it didn&#8217;t pan out. But I&#8217;d do it again, and now I have a friend who&#8217;s a private investigator, so there. Thieves Be Warned!) However, no worries.  I&#8217;ll be paying with cash.<\/p>\n<p>LEARNING. It&#8217;s the watchword for 2008.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and I have finished knitting objects, but no pictures. The chevron scarf is DONE and being worn this minute. This is really a half-assed knitting blog, I must say. It&#8217;s more about Cacophony Jen and Her Catastrophes and Carousing and Correcting Others. Oh, and Indignation. I still love the Indignation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So&#8230;.. after yesterday&#8217;s post, an observation was made at how readily I&#8217;ll just consume &#8230;..drugs.
