Reset Forty-Seven, Day Three

Thursday turned partly clear by afternoon, though there were still a few periods of showers. After nightfall it turned very clear and very cold. There are probably patches of black ice on the local roads. Farther down the valley there is a fog advisory in effect until nine o'clock this morning, but I don't expect it will extend this far north. It is supposed to be mostly sunny in the mini-metropolis today, but not very warm, and the rain is expected to return Saturday.

I fixed a dinner again Thursday, but didn't much enjoy any of it other than the asparagus. There was a packaged rice pilaf and I followed the instructions to use butter, but wish I'd used olive oil instead. Butter just doesn't go with the spices in that dish. Also, I think I was spoiled by the store's deli chili I had for dinner Wednesday night, which was quite good. I might get it more often, though it's very expensive.

But here I am nodding off at the computer again. I don't know if I dare go to sleep this early, as I might wake up before dawn again. Still, I can barely keep my eyes open, and it's chilly in here, and the warm covers are so inviting. If I were hungry I'd stay up another half hour for a bedtime snack, but I just haven't been hungry much lately. Probably too sedentary. Or is it sedimentary? Because I often feel like I'm already buried.
