Confession

I bought something new. I saw a moleskin day planner and I picked it up and put it on the counter and I bought it even though it was non-refundable. Then as I walked out of the store my friend pointed out that I just bought something new. Merde. I did not even buy shoes. One would think if I was going to go prancing off to the store and buy something new I would slip up and buy a fabulous new pair of shoes. Me, I buy a dayplanner. A very original artist designed dayplanner.

I did buy a used copy of a business planning book. If anyone has any experience writing business plans or by chance has a sample business plan please contact me. I will bake for you or hem your pants.

Today I am very excited because I am going to the Newberry Library after work to hear Jean Howard's speech entitled "The Political Fortunes of Robin Hood on the Late Elizabethan Stage". I quoted her in my paper about cross-dressing women in the Renaissance. The Newberry Library even has me listed on their website. It warms the cockles of my heart. I miss being an English major sometimes. I also had to think about my wardrobe choice this morning and I put on my black and burgundy plaid tights that I bought at Urban Outfitters in Madison over ten years ago with a black skirt and white shirt. Things like this are important if you are going somewhere you may meet your future husband.
