It's my 'day off.'

I always snicker a little when I write that. Day off, my foot! So far today, I've gotten some 50 emails dealt with, updated my wholesale page, got through some art shop submissions, processed 6 new artists, returned some calls, got the chai tea moved into the studio, fetched materials for orders out of the connex box, set up a new sale at EMG (I still need photos for it), wrote EMG-Zine news, and have kept the fire going and ate lunch.

For the rest of the day:

Shower
Vacuum
Laundry - in the washer!
Finish EMG-Zine stuff (comics, ads, feature??)
Finish orders (about 10)
Make bread - oo, gotta go get that started! - rising now

Jake has hockey tonight, so I figure I'll work through to about 7 and then stop and watch some girly chick flick.

Also, our volcano is going to erupt! Yay! http://www.avo.alaska.edu/activity/Redoubt.php

I heard about the volcano on NPR on my way home from work today and wondered if you'd be affected by the soot/ash when it does its thing.

It's unlikely the ashes will get all the way up here - it's several hundred miles south of us. I was in Prince William Sound when it erupted when it last erupted, though - we were boating, and woke up to find the boat - and everything on land nearby - completely coated in a thick, black ash. Nasty. Impossible to keep off of the dog (who HAD been white on the underside).

Ah. I'll admit I couldn't remember what area you lived in with regards to where the volcano is -- Alaskan geography hasn't ever been anything I was really familiar with. :)

It must have been super surreal waking up with ash over everything when you were there for the last eruption. (and I bet it was fun trying to clean the dog!)
