Thanks to [info]elisem, I am now obsessed with these Fluevog shoes which are exactly what I need to replace my favorite boots that stopped fitting after my first foot surgery. Laced, flat, not a lugged sole....

12:51 pm - Writer's Block: Peek-a-boo, what to do?

If your friend or partner left his or her email open, would you look? How about a journal? Have you ever peeked at something private?

Of course. I'm nosy. I've read letters, journals, anything that was left unguarded. Sometimes this has had consequences, sometimes not.

My husband understands that if you want something to be totally secret, don't write it down. I think those are just words to live by, not a comment on me.

A couple of weeks ago I noticed that the detergent in the kitchen at work was almost gone, so I bought a new bottle. I chose a "natural" scent-free clear brand, just because it seemed to me that since it was going to sit at a sink next to coffee makers, it would be annoying for coffee drinkers to smell some scent.

The day I brought it in, somebody else brought in another bottle. This one is lavender scented and purple. It's not overpowering, but I notice the purple.

Every time I use that sink I look at the two bottles and notice which one is winning - which one is being used more. I admit I get a little thrill whenever it's the one I brought.

12:11 pm - Good Friday
When I worked at Bank of America as a clerk thirty years ago, we were always given Good Friday afternoon off so we could go to church. Instead we'd head to a bar on Union Street.

Saturday I went to the Santa Clara Mission Cemetery and took a lot of pictures of graves and stained glass. It was a perfect day, sunny but not too hot. I'd never been there before and there are a lot of old and interesting graves. There are several areas of graves of priests and of nuns, some four or five to a grave.
