I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Aww, doggie rescue.

Weekend: Sheesh, I feel like I don't even know. Tonight our little local coffeehouse where our buddies play every week is closing. Boo. So they're having a last-day shindig. The SO is going to that, but I dunno if I am or not. I had a pile o' work to do today, and so did the intern. He's out running now, so I better check and see how far he got. I did awesome today productivity-wise.

I finished my donor benefit notes & photos, and invites. I worked up an image of the kiddoes recording in photoshop. I laid out, formatted, edited and printed the newsletter. I prepped work for the SO & the intern, including filing that is aeons old. I corresponded with the convention head about our booth space.

And I made an awesome yogurt pasta with garlic & chickpeas for lunch. AND I nearly burned down the house forgetting I was boiling water for the hummingbirds.

Anyway. Because of all the busy, I am super wiped right now. All I want to do is lie down and watch the hockey game.

Tomorrow I teach & perform. Sunday is church and...something. Recording? I dunno. More hockey.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh my god, you guys. That's a whole set of varyingly stressfull and/or crappy days! Mixed in with some OK-sounding ones.

I think I am going to go visit my folks tomorrow, and maybe, maybe, try to chop something down in the yard. Actual mowing doesn't seem like it will happen, because of the OMG more!rain that's forecast, but hopefully, I can whack at some of the larger and more aggressive saplings.

Also, I aim for taming the paperwork monster.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Today's one of those days I wish food came in pill form.

I have never had one of those days although I do occasionally wish that food came from one of those replicator machines like they have on the Enterprise.

“Not dead yet!”

Today's basically devolved into one of those days where I wish I could tell everyone to piss off and die. (Present company excluded, of course)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Chips and guacamole is an acceptable dinner, right?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Yes.

My neighbor gave me a new guinea impatien plant! [link] (It was given to her, but she's left town for the rest of the month, and didn't think it would survive her absence.) It is destined for a pot, don't think it could survive my deck. Maybe the front porch?

You should probably add in ice cream, for some dairy.
