1. I am having a bit of a rough morning. Forgot my wallet and phone, had a pronounced dizzy spell when I sat down at my desk, misplaced an appointment, and so on. Pregnancy brain, I haz it.

2. As is my wont, I read several books over the weekend, thanks to flying and all. My favorite was Dahlia Season by Myriam Gurba, which I've been meaning to finish for a while now. [info]cindymonkey, I still owe you a copy of this book. I think you will like it. I adore it. (Full disclosure: I was the original publisher of two of the stories included in this book. But that's just b/c I am lucky.) I also read In Defense of Food by Michael Pollan, which was fine but not earthshaking.

3. Now that I am home, I am reading cookbooks. In lieu of actually cooking, in many cases, although I plan on a lamb osso bucco braise this weekend if I have time.

4. I bought some pants and some bras last night that I hope will accommodate my soon-to-be-changing figure for many, many more months.

5. Actually, considering everything, I think I am doing a good job only forgetting my wallet and phone.

Forgot my wallet and phone,

We work near each other, no? (I am on Page Mill)

I haven't left for work yet... if you have someone still at home, I can swing by both your place and your work on the way to mine (it will take a few hours, I am a bike and public transit person) and pick them up/drop them off.
Oh, wow, this is really sweet of you to offer! But not necessary. Lunch is catered today, and I have a ride home, so forgetting my wallet is inconvenient but not tragic. (It was more of an issue before I realized my appointment was tomorrow, not today :) )

I didn't know you worked down here!
Planning to nurse? Because a friend of mine is convinced that brain cells are soluble in breast milk...

(Fortunately, it's not a permanent condition... like pregnancy!)
that lamb osso bucco made my mouth water.
