The soul has greater need of the ideal than the real for it is by the real that we exist, it is by the ideal that we live

Starting the week in light

This was one of those weekends you need to have over so you can rest.

I had planned to winterize the car. Brakes,plugs, oil, tire rotation, and I did get it all done(except the rotation) barely.

My brother called me as I was about to leave for his house where I can use the garage, and asked me that since his wife had broken a tooth and was in pain,could I take her to the emergency dentist instead. I did of course, but that put me hours off my plan. So I did everything I could to the car, then headed home.

I got there just in time to get the pot roast in the oven before my guests arrived for the evening. We proceeded to have a grand time of Halloween.

Were you aware that certain ghourds can not be carved...unless you own a reciprocating saw? Owning a pitcher of martini's helps too.

So there was jack-o-lanterns, martini's pot roast dry ice, fog, wine, inducing more fog,canasta, and general hangover producing merriment. The holidays are apparently upon us once again. Yeah!

What I did forget however, was my meeting to fix my website! Spaced it out completely! Until I got home that is, and checked my email. There I found not one but two emails from the woman who's helping me begging MY forgiveness for HER forgetting the meeting. So although I was a thoughtless dick, at least I wasn't guilty of making her sit and wait for me while I didn't show up. Instead I apologized to her and asked that we try it again, after all she is helping for free. She found my senility amusing. I guess I'm always entertaining,if nothing else.

This week I have to convince a couple of my students that school is indeed in session and they'd better get on the stick right soon. Kids!

Doncha' just love 'em?

And so it goes:

I pilfered this picture from a blog I read every day. He titled it "I could go back to sleep" yeah right as if...

Love
