1. Actually from yesterday: look at this gender ratio on the Year's Best SF, I almost cried in the bookstore. Thank you, Rich Horton.

2. Used a Pasteur pipet to decant some perfume. Science!
3. Managed to find a spot on the lawn large enough to recline without being too close to any of the ubiquitous goose scat, and ate lunch while watching two dragonflies flit around and soaking up sun.
4. I love being able to completely focus on things. It doesn't have to be anything interesting: I got a lot of satisfaction out of straightening some compressed plastic wrap today. (So we see that both not crumpling it and crumpling it are good. It's a nice world.)
5. Ramen in a new ramen bowl while watching K-on!
