lagilman: coffee or die (the general warned me...)
[personal profile] lagilman
Another Monday being Monday. Not much to say except I seem to be stuck in a repeating loop of "hurry up and wait," which is one of the top 5 ways to make a Virgo lose her shit.

However there was one amusing moment this evening. It being too cold/icy to go for a walk, I decided to make use of the seven flights of stairs in my building (practically everyone uses the elevator, so why not make use of the available space?). As I was coming to the ground floor, my super's wife - a lovely woman of limited English - was standing by the door, and went to open it for me.

"No," said I, waving her off, "I'm just doing stair sprints."

She...was very clearly wearing her "these young American women, sweet but all crazy" expression.

Also, I have fallen far from my days of being able to do stair sprints and not die. That is all.

Just finished 'Miles to Go' and Promises to Keep'.
Lovely. Thank you.
Leaves me craving for more jewels from your Griffon Quill.
