1. I’d like to spend the day reading.
2. One of my most favorite romantic memories is eating veal piccata as a very special dinner in Itasca. It was such a lovely indugence; I was spoiled so thoroughly.
3. Last night, I had pears, water crackers, cheddar cheese and a glass of Chardonnay for dinner.
4. Sorry for the way I retreat when I am hurt.
5. Can we begin the Japanese Literature Challenge 4 now instead of July?
6. One of my worst temptations is swearing; a half silent curse word is hard to resist even though I want to have a clean heart, clean mouth!
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to finishing The Brothers Karamazov, tomorrow my plans include finishing the Hotel on The Corner of Bitter and Sweet for Tuesday’s book club and Sunday, I want to finish all my piled up grading.

Okay, that makes three: you, me and Mark David. (See under the Japanese Literature Challenges in my header.) I'll definitely begin it in June instead of July. 😉

Your romantic memory sounds wonderful! 🙂 And yes to reading all day, although in reality whenever I try that it turns into "sleeping all day."

I could spend a day reading. I did spend days reading when I was single. Have a great weekend!

Oh, the piled-up grading. Sigh. I swear it multiplies when I'm not looking! Good luck, and may it be summer soon!!

I'd like to spend the day reading too! 🙂 What a better world we'd all live in if everybody simply read all day. And I empathise with the swearing. I'm not a big swearer and I find I let slip some words some times when I'm working, which is not a good thing!

And I have a potty mouth, as well. Really, really bad. 😦

I love veal piccata, but usually wind up getting the chicken piccata instead. Your cheese & crackers and pear and wine sound like a delicious dinner, too.
