Happy weekend everyone!
Never fear, our usual Saturday recaps will be coming to you on Monday. In the meantime, make sure you remember to cast your votes in all of the Middlemarch Madness polls since the first round will be closing Saturday afternoon.
And of course, Happy Pi Day!

So much for a lazy weekend! Had to get up early yesterday for the kiddo’s soccer practice and then she played outside with the neighbors for like 3 hours in the afternoon. I stayed out for most of it, but eventually got cold and came in. (I love that she plays with kids who are much older and can be trusted to keep an eye on her!) My mother-in-law’s dog also decided to take me on a nice long walk. Then today we did pretty much veg all morning, but then we went and rode in a firetruck in one of the local St. Patrick’s Day parades. Sleepy now, but have editing to do after dinner.
I had spekkoek. Which could be considered as a cake which is close to pie (MAHAHAHAH)? Am I correct in remembering that PMag used to have a Cake VS Pie madness?
That was Jezebel. I had mini cupcakes on Friday and an M&M Blizzard last night. (Would have gotten pie, but the selection at the store was kinda meh and I didn’t feel like baking.)
Happy Pi Day! I’m eating cake. I hope that’s an acceptable celebration. I’m also watching Keeping Up With The Kardashians. I’m not sure if that will be as acceptable as cake.
Good things that happened this week:
I finished most of my grad school application (just waiting on the GRE, which is scheduled for next month) AND they waived the application fee because I am broke! YAY! AND I have an appointment next week with Dress for Success so I can get grownup type clothes!
Less good things:
I am broke and couldn’t pay my phone bill, so I have no cell phone! yeehhhhhhhshit.
OH YEAH, I got to cuddle a lab puppy at the SPCA and he was a cuddly cuddler of cuddles. He’s been adopted already, of course. And I hung out with lots of the cats.
Awwww! So glad there’s lots of feline loveliness happening amongst the brokeness! And hooray for the application happiness!
One of my favorites to visit was adopted today! So I can’t visit with Pandora anymore, because she has her own humans now. :)
