11° Of Seperation
12/06/07 05:03 PM | Up Chucks
When Jenni left for work it was 11° outside. It was much nicer under the covers. I have this day off from work, this very cold day. This is good because I have a lot stuff I want to get done today, well what's left of it. I stayed up late last night, long after Jenni, who doesn't have the day off, went to bed. We watched the last three (until next year) episodes of Life. Then we watched the last two episodes of Reaper after we found out that the last new Life wasn't on until 10:00, Jenni was already drifting and nodding a little at the end of Reaper, but managed to stay awake through Life. Never let it be said that Jenni slept through an entire life!
Meanwhile... Meredith down in Stuart Florida, where it is currently 73° has been having a couple of rough days, wisdom teeth. She had two removed today, and was supposed to work this evening. I feel for her. She didn't work, since she had one tooth removed on each side and is not able to talk, something important for a sales associate, don't cha think?
I wasted much of this day. I intended to get up fairly early and do the post here, take some snow photos, and wash clothes. I ended up sleeping until a little after 11:00. I did get a few shots of the bright white cold blanket. I didn't wash clothes because I decided to make coffee, and Green-bean Casserole for my beloved when she came home. She had an early Doctors appointment herself. I figured to be done by 2:30 PM would be about right, my mistake. She didn't even see the doctor until after 2:30 and got home just after 5:00.
Now it's 5:38 and Captain Distraction is back to the post that will not die. When I started this issue, or episode or entry if you will (you will, oh, yes you will, you have no choice) I had nothing in mind for the direction of it, (Obviously) other than the clever 11° title which should make you all very happy. If I had made myself bacon (and I could have) for breakfast I would have made a cheesy Kevin Bacon 6° thing too. During my many distractions I thought more than once that I needed to get in and finish the post, that led to a ...Meanwhile Back at the World Headquarters thought, and that grew legs as they say in writer parlance. So I had to do some photos for that, and I had to figure out how to make them comic book looking, so I did that, that all took more time than the casserole took to bake, but such is an unorganized day off kind of experience, so even the interruptions had their interruptions.
I also thought about how to best plan for Jenni's surprise vacation experience coming spring shortly after my 48th birthday. I have a great destination in mind, and I think she has no clue about the place I plan on taking her. Here is her first clue, which, as vague as it is, is still a starting point.
Mystery Vacation Clue #1: This destination is a place that neither of us have ever spoken about (more available at the links).
This will be a Camera intensive voyage too. (Hey wait that's another clue.)
I thought I was going to start building an itinerary, and investigating places to stop and stay, eat, etc on the journey which will not take Interstate Highways where they can be avoided. But the interruptions that interrupted the well planned out directionless drift of my day must have seen me coming and now I'm left with, well all that to do before spring. I have time.
Tomorrow is First Friday. Get out and visit as many of the Galleries and artists shows as you can. It's called Culture and we need to show the world that we have and get it. Flux and The Domont Galleries will be hosting multiple artist shows with affordable pieces for sale to an art starved community. Maybe I'll see you at both, maybe you will be picking out something personal as a gift for a loved one? Something not available at Super-Plastic Discount Universe at any price.
