Today just kind of slid by. Is there such a thing? It wasn't boring, and I was busy at work. It was just a ho hum kind of day. The Dove's milk chocolate eggs on the front desk that I kept returning to kept my energy up. I had a good mix of clients. I did get to do my cousin Jill's hair, and it's always nice to visit with her. The ride to and from work was good because I'm listening to a new book, The Road by Cormac McCarthy. It's the new Oprah's Bookclub selection. I read one of McCarthy's books last month--the western that I didn't like. I'm giving him another try. So far I'm on the third out of 6 Cd's, and it's riveting. Plus, it's performed by one of my favorite narrators.

I spoke to Emily for a long time tonight. She was alone at her father's, her choice, and she wanted me on the phone till he got home. Her bravery was short-lived. Trust me that engaging her in conversation on the phone is a rarity. It was nice to have a captive audience!

There's an 80% chance of snow tonight, starting after midnight. Hello winter, we're so over you. The only white stuff I want to see is in the form of flowers. If it does snow, it ought to make for some beautiful pictures. Let's hope my camera sits idle in the morning.
