Clearly everything’s up in the air today. I spent two hours today trying to pay four bills, only one of which was successfully brought to completion.

So insteado posting one of my usual insightful persistant political diatribes, I’m going to link to another.

This is my favorite piece of writing that we’ve encountered in class so far. I’m going to start sounding like a skipping record, because my second favorite piece was The Master Letters, and while I wouldn’t call Pessoa out for #3, I think I wrote of him more effusively than I intended.

– So I’m just posting now, at approximately two. Sorry. Each week gets progressively more sleep deprived. I got ten hours of sleep last night; about what I got in the three preceding days. The better flipside of this is that I’m getting lots done.

– NOVEMBER – is Healthy Skin month.
– TODAY – is America Recycles Day.
– HAPPY BIRTHDAY – Georgia O’Keefe.

– PICTURE OF THE WEEK –
When I was seven-to-ten years old, I was browsing a book on Carnival Cruise lines and I was totally captivated by a thumbnail sized photo of the “Oz Discothèque” on one of their ships.

– NOVEMBER – is the month of Georgia peacans.
– HAPPY BIRTHDAY – Claude Monet.

– QUOTE OF THE WEEK –
“To be an adult is to be alone.”
– Jean Rostand.

– NOVEMBER – is family caregivers month.
– HAPPY BIRTHDAY – Marie Curie, Albert Camus, and Joni Mitchell.

– NEWS OF THE WEEK –
news.com.au – Air guitar in fashion.
It’s an article about an air guitar that actually works.

The fat lady sang.

Between NaNoWriMo and the election and school, I’ve averaged between four and five hours of sleep a night for the last week. Until last night… I just woke up. You may have also noticed, I’ve spent altogether too much time blogging.
