balance restored
things that make me happy today (and yesterday):
- Ben is out of surgery and doing well, per his mum
- Dunc's interview Thursday went well
- the mini-Reds won the FA Youth Cup
- Spanish wine
- we might move, again
- Benfica fans on an LFC forum cheering us on
- my email inbox is down from 262 items to 6 items
- thunderstorms while we'm falling asleep
- we might move, again
- I don't know where I can watch the FA Cup semi-final today
- somehow there is always more laundry that needs to be done

priorities
things that have made me happy today:
- the way brick buildings and old-fashioned streetlamps look in the rain
- ginger sugar cookies
- this picture
- radio paradise
- Percy's fluffy tail
- eating lunch with Dunc
- planning far-off vacations
- making good flowcharts for work
- Roddy Doyle
- the possibility, no matter how small, that Liverpool will thump Chel$ki at the weekend
- Ben is having brain surgery tomorrow to remove a small cyst
- our leasing company still has not sent us our lease renewal to sign
- the dog is not eating much of his food
- several panicky moments when I thought the backup server ate a tape
- I broke one of my favorite BNL cds
