Presidents\u2019 Day?  Presidents Day?

Maybe i\u2019ll have to make an ice cream cake myself sometime to see if i can make one that would live up to my expectations.  But somebody should be serving a nice chocolate cake with chocolate icing, don\u2019t you think, to celebrate these birthdays of presidents?  maybe they\u2019re dishing it out over at Lincoln\u2019s home.  <\/p>\n<p>well, the play is over.  the week looms ahead of me.  it\u2019s apparently going to be in the low 40\u2019s all week, and i assume it\u2019ll be grey and dreary, so i\u2019m not even going to think about the weather, i\u2019ll just avoid it.  it\u2019s a little sad that the play is over, but then again, not so much.  i\u2019ll miss the aerobic workout every night, the opportunity to dance around like crazy and think up different silly &#8220;ballet&#8221; moves.  but then again, i still have the toe shoes, so i can really dance anytime i feel like it.  i had to give the tutu back, which was a little sad, but then again, if i really feel the need for a tutu of my own, i\u2019m sure i could make one for about five dollars.  <\/p>\n<p>when my sister saw the play on saturday night, she said she wants a tutu, too.  it was quite fashionable, i must admit, plus of course it goes well with any outfit.<\/p>\n<p>i\u2019ll miss some of the people in the play, but on the other hand, i\u2019ll be seeing them soon, i know.<\/p>\n<p>my friend thad just bought a house.  actually, my old boyfriend scott also just bought a house, how funny.  thad and scott and i have known each other for quite a while now, and i don\u2019t think we\u2019ve ever had such a high percentage of house-ownership between us.  i\u2019ve been invited to both of their new houses, which i\u2019ll do at some point, but not today because i\u2019m sure the airports are quite crowded with all the presidents\u2019 day revelers.<\/p>\n<p>i\u2019m thinking about buying my own house, as a matter of fact, but i can\u2019t do that today, either.  i have to wait till i decide whether to buy, or to find a really cheap apartment, which would make me feel that i\u2019m still free to move to Paris if i want to.  Paris, france, that is, not paris illinois.  thad claims i NEED TO BUY A HOUSE, that it\u2019ll grow and grow in value, and if i decide to move to paris, or washington d.c. or wherever, i could always rent it or sell it.<\/p>\n<p>it all sounds very complicated, that\u2019s all.<\/p>\n<p>fortunately, since today is a holiday (but why am i working all day, then?), i don\u2019t have to decide anything right this minute.<\/p>\n<p>whew.  <\/p>\n<p>positive thoughts, positive thoughts&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>ok then,<\/p>\n<p>hard-working grace<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President\u2019s Day?
