(no subject)

Went to the farmer's market today for lunch (sesame chicken over noodles) and picked up some snap peas and a few pieces of fudge, which I may be eating right now (nom). I thought about going to the fair -- this is its last weekend -- but I don't think I'm going to make it out there this year. I just haven't really felt like it. Orion doesn't particularly enjoy that kind of thing, so I have to either go by myself or round up a friend to go with, and this year I think I'd rather sit it out. The main fun I get out of the fair is the food and the livestock barns, anyway. I'll go next year ...

And it's hideously smoky today, which makes being outside not much fun. We get kind of blase about wildfire smoke around here. My thought upon waking up and looking out to see the hills were gone behind clouds of smoke was "Well, suck, guess I'll stay inside today" rather than "Fire? Where?!"

While I was in town, I also hit the library and picked up a bunch of Agatha Christie and Robert Silverberg -- how's that for a mixed bag of writers. I haven't read much by either one of them, so I'll see how I like it.
