I didn't do much this weekend: went to the Greenmarket last week (breads, apples, asparagus, fish) on Saturday, and made chicken stock for later use today. We had the remains of a roast chicken, and the necessary vegetables; we will have a couple of quarts of chicken stock for later use in whatever we want to cook. And I wrote to [livejournal.com profile] mrissa. Other than that, I read some, talked to Mom and [livejournal.com profile] adrian_turtle on the phone, and kept cool: we have turned the air conditioning on for the first time this year. (It's not the first hot day, but a month ago it wasn't humid.)

I've been trying to rest my left knee (in the hope that this will make it stop hurting without needing medical treatment), but there are problems. There's the walk to the subway every workday (and from subway to work, but a crosstown bus can help there). Stairs are what mostly hurts, and fortunately both subway stations I need to use regularly have elevators (but using them adds to the amount of flat walking).
more about my knee, maybe not of interest )

I need to sort out travel plans for Wiscon, which is feeling oddly like a Task (maybe I shouldn't moderate that panel), and for a trip to see Adrian between now and then. But I needed this to be a rest weekend, with decisions to follow in a day or two.
