Feels-Like-Winter-Thursday Rambly Bits

[gnomi]

-- Winter-qua-winter is still a good month off, but today definitely feels like winter. Daytime highs in the mid-30s F, a good stiff wind making it feel like it's 8 degrees outside. Time to dig out the leggings, I do believe.

-- Introducing people who know each other: magid, re-meet autotruezone.

-- mabfan has Town Meeting this week, so I'm fending for myself most evenings. I've gotten random stuff done and writing (just a tad; I desperately need to do more) done, but mostly I have been knitting. And last night I spent a lovely chunk of time with lucretia_borgia.

-- I've been doing a Fawn Hall on a whole slew of old paperwork that we'd just never gotten around to getting rid of. Tell me, do I really need seven years ago's tracking forms of freelance projects that are now long over? I say no, so into the shredder they go.

-- For those of you in the general Brookline-Brighton-Allston area who may not have heard, the Barnes and Noble in Coolidge Corner is leaving. I see this as a complication, not only because we'll be down one bookstore but also because the B&N and Brookline Booksmith have developed something of a symbiotic relationship, with the Booksmith carrying more of the small press and indy press stuff and the B&N carrying the more mainstream stuff that Booksmith doesn't have shelf space for.

I'm told that you were in attendance at his wedding.

Your name came up last Shabbat at kiddush at Kadimah, and he said he knew you. He hadn't, however, put your LJ handle together with your real-life existence.

I've been lucky enough to attend a lot of weddings...

I didn't think that would be enough of a hint. Hmm. Let me think.

His profile is very bare, but the hint is in God-given and Traumatic.

Or I can just e-mail you offline and tell you his name.

Married in Worcester in a snow storm, perhaps?

Mrs. Autotruzone here...yes, you've guessed it - my hint was going to be that you will forever be known as "that girl in the floral dress" to me :-)

And no, you didn't pay me to follow the photographer and make silly faces during the table shots :-)

Yes, indeedy, as Mrs. Autotruezone says (since she was anonymous, her comment was screened and may not have been e-mailed to you).
