rigel is there My life seems to be slowing down again and I have yet to decide whether that is a good thing or a bad thing. In fact this indecision left me in a funk for most of the day or as Nicole put it later in the night, she wanted to know why I seemed so blah. I couldn't give her an answer, but spent close to an hour just hanging out with her. It was time well spent. ... Work has been less stressful and I am very appreciative of that fact. I need time to put things into perspective again. My boss spent about half an hour chatting with me this morning before I left. Most of what we talked about had nothing to do with work which made it even better. He was telling me about his latest home improvement project and then the subject of water heaters took over, which was odd but informative. Homeowner talk has a certain charm to it that is hard to describe or to put it another way, I like being part of that club. ... Class went well enough and if anyone is keeping score the girl in the sweater is already seeing someone. Once again I took the direct approach in finding out this information. I asked her what her boyfriend was doing for her on this special day and she said nothing yet. I think that this inquiry confused her more than anything else since it came out of nowhere. I guess that I should have followed up with the line that I hope that he would do something for her since I couldn't but I didn't. My mind wasn't working that quickly. At this point she probably thinks that I am insane, but I guess that I can live with that idea. We'll see if she avoids me on Tuesday. ... My copy of PS (A Toad Retrospective) came in the mail today. It was a nice surprise and took me back to my undergraduate days. Bands like Toad don't seem to be around anymore or if they are I have yet to find them. Years ago all that I knew of them was their album Fear, so now I have a catalog of at least four other albums to explore. Something old is still new to me.
