One of the days last week that I was home early from work (sick) there occurred the splendid situation of rain in front of my apartment, and sunshine behind. Delightful!
Last week was odd, some of it in a good way. I enjoyed two work-related training sessions given by Pete Mento (and I mean it; entertaining as well as informative--but I am going to send him an e-mail with incontrovertible proof that Europe did, indeed, have silk long before Marco Polo's famed voyage).
I may have avoided getting completely sick.
My car developed Serious Issues which led to procuring the services of a tow truck--preemptively. I have already been stranded alongside the road twice this year, and that is really quite enough. (Now my car has a new alternator, and is much happier.)
Saturday, after picking up my car, I had a fancy coffee and went to hear Widdershins play, which was a lot of fun.
Sunday I went out for cupcakes with friends, and was compelled to accompany them to Powell's.
There has been but little playing with string--just spinning the fabulous painted roving--and, spurred by envy of the friends taking a 4-day weekend, I have come to the conclusion that I won't make it to Thanksgiving without a break. At least if I don't want to spend this Thanksgiving sick.
Final bit of excitement: I managed to get the cell phone activated, a mere week after purchasing it. I promise not to talk and drive. It is a very cute little device, but I'm still fonder of my mp3 player.
Now, back to being overwhelmed at work.

Sounds like a lovely weekend. And I'm glad you finally got a cell phone!!!
Do take a break if you can. My long weekend was fabulous - now I want a couple more just like that.
