ironwood beauty Friday night slowly became Saturday morning and brought me that much closer to my weekend. It wasn't as though the week was any more stressful than any other week, but I had put the busiest part behind me. All that remains is a calm Saturday night at work where I usually pass the time by reading. I do this without any feeling of guilt, because activity on the network is slow and I still get done what I need to do. A part of me also see it as compensation for having to work Saturday. As I drove home through the rising heat, I gave in to my craving for fast food. Then within minutes of finishing my meal, I quickly regretted it. Fast food almost always has a nasty effect on my system. I may not always eat that healthy, but a quick meal from any of the big chains is a huge shock to my body. Sadly this is something that I forget every few months or so and end up repeating the process. The way that some people can subsist on a diet of fast food is beyond me. September might almost be here, but summer still lingers. I remember that when I was in school I wanted the temperature to drop as soon as school started. It didn't seem fair to have to sit inside a classroom when it was still warm and sunny outside. It was supposed to be overcast and cool with rain that would linger for hours. Now with most of my vacation time gone for the year I feel the same way. Three hours of searching online auctions for wooden sculptures kept me awake past noon. To be more specific my latest obsession is ironwood sculptures. The weight of the wood and its rich tones are what appeal to me the most. Suddenly I want to start a collection and scatter them throughout my house. So far I only have one piece, but I love it. I woke in time to see a movie before I went to work and after I saw it I felt that sleeping later might have been the better choice.
