water and woods

after weeks of a light work load, i suddenly find my plate overfloweth. it's 10pm and i'm just getting started (or rather, stalling on getting started). oh, the blessing and curse that is working from home.

i'm counting down the days until the weekend. heading up to the hood river area for "wild women in the woods" -- a loosely organized weekend of hiking, kayaking and general debauchery. i'm excited about some time with dirt under my feet, communing with the trees and playing multi-person solitaire. i was hoping for warm enough weather to swim, but alas, frolicking at sauvie island labor day weekend gave me swimmer's ear. swimming just isn't satisfying if i can't completely submerge my merself. swimming or not, i'm still hoping for warm weather because the 40-degree rating on my hot pink camo sleeping bag is a lie! note to self: must remember to administer my ear drops three times per day even when swimming in vodka.
