Of Meteors and Weekends . . .

Son Ben saw the big meteor that came down over Wisconsin Wednesday night. He has a first floor apartment with a big glass door that leads to a patio off his bedroom. He was lying in bed and looking out that glass door when he saw it. He said it was a thrill. Lucky kid . . .

A meteor would be good right about now, for entertainment and inspiration. Even though I cranked out 400 words yesterday, it felt like a slow slog. Today I'm talking my weekly walk with my friend Linda. She's interesting and kind and a great listener, so I rarely pass up our Friday morning ramble. Then I'm garden building with nephew Joe; we've scheduled 5 hours of hard labor. You can probably guess I'm already thinking writing will be a challenge today. Then it's the weekend, and you all know how my perception of weekends can impact any semblance of writing discipline I have. (See "Permission Denied" posting from March 25 for details!)

Anyway, I've changed the template, but you probably already noticed that. I guess with this blog program I'm using, I could change it up regularly, no sweat, so let me know what you think. In the meantime, enjoy the weekend and keep your eyes peeled for meteors. A thrill would be a good thing for everyone, don't you think?
