The Aerie
Oh, look, it's my weblog.
One butterfly
So here I am once again after a long break. Sorry, sorry. It's just
been that kind of a month.
I don't think I expected it to BE that kind of a month, mind you. But
it turned out that way.
Last week my two-part role-playing book [1]Mitlanyal was due at the
publisher on Wednesday. Coincidentally, my report on my trip to El
Paso was also due that day. And submissions to the Grand Research
Challenge were due that day. As was a proposal for a contracting
agency, as well as two resumes. Due that day.
Two butterflies After getting everything done at 3:00 a.m. on Thursday
morning I got a little sleep and then did something -- I can't quite
recall what -- during the day on Thursday.
Thursday night I couldn't fall asleep, and ended up remaining awake
until Friday night. Friday evening my daughter had her half-dozen
friends for her sleepover. And Saturday I attended a gala thrown by a
client. The governor and city mayors past and present attended, and I
was out til 11:00 p.m. When I returned home I recalled that my spouse
had volunteered to tend our 6-month-old niece. Screaming until 1:30
a.m.
Three butterflies So this week I mostly staggered through,
semiconscious, trying to recover from last week. Everytime I thought
of working on the weblog some other activity, usually closer in
character to sheer vegetation, came to mind.
Tonight my son is having his sleepover, so the entry will be brief.
Well, it will be what it ends up being, if this is brief this is
brief.
One nice break along the way was that for the past month some kind of
butterfly has been passing through the Twin Cities. Last week I caught
a cloud of them visiting our garden.
