“ok. when i reach C i’ll go out and get the paper and some strawberries.” “ok. when i reach M i’ll make a crumble.” today has been broken down into alphabetical subdivisions, because i’m working on (still!) the index for previously mentioned directory layout job.

the directory layout job has taken many turns of late. more accurately, in the last couple of days it has lurched towards being finished, and then lurched to a halt, and then lurched back on track… something to do with deals struck with the sales rep at the printer who went on holidays without telling anyone. to cut a long and stupid story short, it’s still due at the printers tomorrow, and when i think about it i laugh and then i cry. then i laugh, bitterly.

and then i get to S and dammit it’s time to make that crumble. right now i can smell rhubarb-pear-strawberry-oats-brown sugar-butter-cinammon wafting up from downstairs. when i reach V it may be time for crumble!
