truesday - 29 july 08

hello tuesday.
hello self.

S: it seems that today is just another in the routine of mid-summer. it is past holiday and early vacationing time and still not quite yet festival and late summer time. if dogs had days I reckon that such days would be these.

T: what do folks do then?

S: wake, work, limit productiveness, sweat, and soldier on. (and apparently really crazy masochistic people move)

T: that doesn't sound like too much fun.

S: quite right, unless one finds fun in relaxing and the oppressive slowness of tropical living.

T: so how do folks get motivated to do things?

S: they don't. that's the point. this is the time for wandering, lounging, and un-ambitiousness.

T: what should we do today then for fun?

S: rough plan activities and then set forth.

T: do tell; what's the plan then?

S: leave work, ride up to something fun & indoors for post work interest: looks like the blanton has a new exhibit of Japanese woodblock prints called the floating world (till 5). perhaps find a nice shaded patio (dog & duck) or cozy establishment (tx chili parlor / opal divine's ) and read while relaxing over a pint. or depending on similar minded folks' turn-out, then lounging conversation and stories of summer productiveness, or the lack thereof. and there's always the chance for live evening music as well: antone's has some women blues as well as other usual venue's music assortments.

T: not half bad.
