entertainment is limited over here. i finished ram dass' book, and painted my nails in honor of his good book design. i'd like to wallpaper my home with the brown paper pages from the book's center. i started karen armstrong's memoir, the spiral staircase. leek and potato soup is on the stove, i bought an electric beater today. i found wood sawhorses for robin, but i really went looking for a used copy of shirley maclaine's out on a limb. my quest involves reading about quests. i drove upstate this morning with my rabbit, who is still bitter about the commute. stay warm.
