Aug. 12th, 2003 03:06 pmSecond afternoon in a row of this weird ringing noise in the house... the absence of the baby screaming. My ears have yet to adjust. Just like yesterday, the noise has stunned me into a listless round of nothing much, like cleaning out my inbox and doing a lot of small tasks that need to be done but do not add up to much. I actually have two work projects over my head right now, but they are so massive that I can only manage to motivate myself to do them at about 4 in the afternoon.
We did indeed manage to dash away to the cabin last night. Got some takeout pizza that was better than the usual Maine "pizza" you get up here. The cabin was cute and you could walk down to the water and everything. I think we did manage to unwind. Woke up at 7:30 even without the baby, but it felt like better rest than usual. We are thinking hard about this "cabin" option because it is likely that we will have to find something like that if we want to come up here next year. Although... perhaps we should think about going someplace different, for a change? The concept of a "vacation" is foreign to me.
Tonight I will be going to Bangor to try to find that sport coat or whatever. I certainly hate clothes shopping (or, more precisely, I hate finding something I actually like and then realizing it's nice because it's very expensive). And then down to Providence tomorrow night.
