Chilly today. Blech. I'm so ready for warm weather to stick around longer than a day or two. Although to be honest, 80⁰F weather in April (and now May) is way too hot. Can't we have mid-70s until late summer?

Anyway, because it was too chilly to sit outside yesterday, I ended up spending the day finally catching up on a couple of my tv shows I let lie fallow - Heroes and Fringe.

Heroes - I just don't know what to say about the season ender. I neither loved it nor hated it. I'll watch next season - probably much like I did this year: online and several episodes at a time.

As for Fringe, I still have to watch last week's episode and then I'm all caught up so I can watch it in real time. I ♥ Walter thiiiiiiiiiis much. I thought the three episodes I watched last night were really good. Even Olivia was okay. I prefer all the other characters more, but I can live with her.

Today, I want to watch a few episodes of Medium, and then I need to go to a birthday party for the twins; the invitation to which I got in the mail Friday. I have a feeling their mother forgot to send me one earlier. Whatever. Since I only give money, it's not like I had to go scramble for birthday gifts. But it would have been nice to have a little more notice.

Anyway, all the tv watching and birthday party going means I haven't even opened any of the books I took out of the library for this weekend. But I'll probably at least start one tonight after The Amazing Race - the third Alex Delaware novel, Over the Edge.

I called my sister-in-law a little bit ago and, well, I lied and said that I wasn't going to make it to the twins' birthday party because I had a really bad sinus headache.

Which is totally not true.

The truth is that it's cold and drizzly and I just don't feel up to being in a contained space with a dozen or so one to eight-year-olds screaming and running around and actually giving me a headache. Plus since I'm pretty sure they almost forgot to invite me, I'm pretty sure I won't be missed all that much. I'll mail their birthday cards & money to them tomorrow.

So, I'm staying home today.

I feel better already. :-D
