I say "quick" because my eldest is sitting in my bed (yes, i said "MY") in my room (again with the "MY" as in not hers...), wide awake. and when i say wide awake, i mean she just chatted my freaking ear off for twenty minutes about god-knows-what because all i kept screaming in my head was GO TO SLEEP!
so, i am out here "closing up the house", which means typing my blog and then daring to read my book out on the couch, since i have a pitch black room now. i have a feeling i'll get through about five pages before i see a sweet-looking dirty-blonde head pop around the corner wondering what's taking me so long.
on a separate note, i have whole-heartedly enjoyed this winter's restaurant week. i was fortunate to have gotten to eat out three times this week with three separate groups of friends, to three completely different places! and while i truly enjoyed every bite of food i ate, and every sip of wine or in-house-brewed beer that i partook, i am happily done with my gluttony. I am actually very much looking forward to going back to my running and calorie charting regimen again tomorrow. but, while i was gluttonous this past week, i have eaten some really great food. my favorites were the baked beer cheese at the Brewery and the braised short ribs tonight at the italian restaurant. and, well, everything at the spanish tapas place.
maybe my next career should be food critic, or food blogger. except then i'd have to run about 20 miles a day to be able to keep eating the way i 'd have to. i actually think that would be a perfect world ;)
