Night showers are great. Ponder life in there.

Thursday, February 02, 2006

I watched Groundhog Day this evening with some friends. Conversation inevitably turned to what we could do if we had a Groundhog Day, and the first feeling I had was that of alarm. I thought, "What if I hadn't gotten in bed until 6am the night before so I had to live eleven years of perpetual exhaustion due to lack of sleep??" No matter how early I got in bed each night, it would still be as if I had barely slept. Every day. That was a frightening thought. I would like to have a Groundhog Day . . . maybe not for eleven years . . . but it would definitely be an experience. It's interesting to think how much more honest I would be if there were absolutely no consequences. Perhaps I should keep that in mind more often.

In other news, I got a nice paper letter from John last night. He wrote some pretty great things that made me feel quite a bit better about how we left things. He really is a terrific friend.

And now, off to shower and possibly get right to bed . . . because if tomorrow is today, I want to be rested.

On ours I cooked the pizza for two hours... It was so good ! It was a chicken bacon ranch. I also did not get to bed till 11:30, It was lame.

See, that's funny. Because I have a feeling other people would write, "It's interesting to think how much more dishonest I would be if there were absolutely no consequences."

no problem.

hey, i got a bone to pick with ya. that bone involves your background picture. i like it, i like it immensely. HOWEVER. it takes forfreakingever to load, and it slows down the rate at which i can load and read your blog, and check for new comments. is this because it is too large a picture? i do not know. but i point it out as someone who fears that other, less dedicated readers will turn away because of the added complication of reading your entirely worthy, if slightly ridiculous blog.

Weird. I'll see what I can do about that. Time for a change anyway. I didn't use a different size picture and it doesn't load any more slowly for me than the others did. Maybe your computer just gets so excited that it's a picture of Oregon that it momentarily freezes up.
