Randomness
Nov. 27th, 2002 10:13 pmI've discovered a new place in town where a person can hang out and write all day long and not get thrown out or get a sinus headache from the smoke, bringing my grand total of available venues to five.
In the morning I do a complex calculation of what would be the best place to go, involving ten or twelve variables -- all the chairs at Barnes & Noble are in the window now, so I don't go there unless it's cloudy because on sunny days the heat and glare are awful ... one of the libraries has pay parking with a two-hour limit and the other doesn't open until 10:30 ... if it's the day of my weekly lunch with the Tech Goddess, she'll want to get Mocha Blasts, so I don't want to go someplace where I feel obligated to buy a mocha as my fee for occupying a chair all day long, because that's just too much caffeine for one day ...
It's like one of those story problems where Albert lives above Betty, and Charlie and Dan both live on the fourth floor, and Edwina doesn't live on the mezzanine.
In other news: Off-brand butterscotch candies from the dollar store? A false economy. Because GACK SPTTT that's foul.
And: Didn't Dove Bars used to be bigger than this?
