rainy day in los angeles

after a freakishly magnificent breakfast with Miranda, I suffered a total lack of motivation today.  it'll be remedied tomorrow since I'm due to show up at 9 am at a friend's house to help with renovations (or at least renovation clean up) all day.  Should be exciting and non-brain work, which I think I could use.

Had a good if hectic week - we had a bunch of job talks in our department (luckily the next one wraps up this week). 

( so, random thought that has come up more than once about the ex - and teakettles )
