Something on the strange side - but on going
We kept it all quiet.I have always said OKAY in most situations not knowing that it was a self induced sense of empowering where there was no right to do so. But here I go again with Okay it was Tuesday. Never liked the day – mind you pancakes can be okay from time to time. However, it hailed Ash Wednesday and that was worrying. How good of a Catholic are we if we don’t understand that poignant date in the liturgical calendar?I never did any nasties on Tuesdays – but let’s jump forward and look on the other days of the week that I somehow leaped out of the box of the bland.
Friday
Dinner with the family. Terribly infused with the spirits of wine and otherwise; I remove myself from their presence to go forth. Think I did a nasty that night. Married men can be very worrying - take your imagination where ever it wishes to go.
Saturday
Generally stayed in – several times just drinking through the night. Often, I would make very odd phone calls, which to this day I still regret. Well it is Saturday and Sunday is in view with whatever penance it will come with. We might as well, during this short life, take a chance and see what options are out there. Saturdays also generally cost the price of 2 bottles of dark rum. Whilst at university that was a lot of money.
Monday
Oh dear me – ever felt your head on such a day? There was a film about leaving Vegas that always reminded me about my state of mental health. Also, it’s the day of the big decisions – company crap – personal stuff and worst of all apologies to someone that I said something that shouldn't have. There is a story of a lady visiting our home with a dear friend of ours. She was (probably still is) big – I enquired about her personal status and as she finished saying that she was no longer with her husband I asked “Did you eat him?” I never get the punishment I deserve.I know
I have missed a couple of days and they are coming soon for review – but back to that Tuesday. It was the day of the worst practical joke. ………………… more soon
Sunrise on Saltspring 29 Dec 2006
one very rare morning
Noose around the neck and morning rises
So they did it. Terrified an entire nation killed the bad guy and taught a world how to hate. Well done my fellow North Americans.
However on a brighter side the show yesterday morning created by nature was inspiring. The camera shot below isn't the best but it gives the essence of the event.
It's Saturday afternoon and Alan's out trimming our rather pathetic fruit trees - I believe I'm suppose to join him but I am holding out with excuses of laundry and a dodgy back.
Celebrated Dale's birthday yesterday - Richard does know how to offer up the meat selection but it was all rather tasty. Night before last we were honourable Edmontonians (Alberta). I believe you have to go to cackle school to actually be a full member. The night succumb to schmoosiness when the hens decided on booking tickets for Il Divo. Now if you have n't caught these guys please check out this site:
I would actually like to be one of them but they say I am unable to carry a tune ( smallish hand bag issues) I didn't really think that was a problem - I think they just don't want balding guys in the band. It's so petty.
Always,
