Contemplations

Let's take a "would you rather?" poll!

Parallel park, take the T, or beg shamelessly for a ride?  I pick begging first ... then the T.  I admit. I don't parallel park.

Did you also know that wearing something on your head protects carefully straightened hair from curling (read: frizzing) in the wetness... and has the added bonus of keeping you very warm?  Take that, you slushy sleet and snow and rain that fell all day upon the land!  Your lousy weather might have depleted my sunshine reservoir and made for lots of tragedy, but I emerged victorious!

Victorious and grateful.  Grateful it wasn't me involved in the head-on collision I heard about this morning, or the squish up that required a fire truck & police car on the way home from work, or the left-turn lane accident that needed an ambulance at the intersection that should NEVER have blinking red and yellow lights instead of functioning stoplights, even and especially in lousy fog & drizzle when half the road is a puddle the size of a small Arizona pond.  Seriously.  All that was missing was a rubber ducky.

On the upside for the evening, the Institute closing social tonight was an excellent reminder of the urgent need to feast upon the words of Christ daily.  Not nibble.  Not just have appetizers.  Not taste-test or graze.  Feast.  Gluttonously.  That will be a filling exercise over the next few days.  We shall see how it goes.

And that is all, since the day is over.

PS - did you know that CTRL+ALT+arrow key rotates your entire computer screen?  Weird.
