I update the calendar marquee at the front of the local elementary school, and was only a little confused when I looked at the schedule today and saw "Rainbow Day" listed for May 27. The school typically has one themed "spirit day" per month (Hat Day, Pajama Day, etc.), so I figured the idea was that students would be allowed to wear rainbows or any color of the rainbow instead of their normal school uniforms.

Turns out I was right, but you couldn't tell that to the guy picking his kid up early from school.

Current Mood: disappointed

I got an ultrasound a few days ago to look for possible gall stones. The technician -- who looks uncannily like Hermione Norris, only shorter -- was the same one who checked me for a suspected hernia several months ago. She had me lift up my shirt and lie down, and then squirted the gel onto my belly.

As the hot, viscous fluid landed wetly onto my skin in a ropey line, the first thing that went through my head was, Oh, so that's what it feels like.

Boy, it's been a while. That's my pattern, though. I'll write a bunch for a little while, and then go away for a long time. It does nothing for contemplation, but makes the readers' experience that much sweeter when I return ... I guess.
