Life Without Practice

We all live lives without practice - you only live once, and this ain't no rehersal. Life is what happens along the road. Plan as we might, things sometimes take another path. This is an on-going diatribe from my perspective. Don't live like it's a rehearsal!

Walk This Way

Okay, it's a minor thing in the world, but so is my existance. A new walkway is in place. This phase of Proj3 is complete, but I'm sure there will be more soon. I finished all the paver cutting yesterday. A dusty, dirty job in 30 degree heat (sorry US friends that's what, about 86F). Nice to be finished, but one doesn't spend a lot of time squatting and kneeling in a regular day, so I was pretty joint-sore and hunchy feeling by the end of the day. Not even enough energy to post to the LWoP blog!

Went out for some Indian food at a place that's been mostly just okay for decades "Light of India" in the Glebe area of Ottawa. We had Lamb Passanda, Bindi Bhaji, a pile of lime pickles, some nan and pulao rice. It was all very good! A nice suprise. I was expecting merely adequate.

Folk Me!
Today's the Ottawa Folk Fest and so we're going to pack a nice picnic lunch, load up the bikes and cycle on over for a loungy afternoon. Hope the festival is as good as it's been in past years. We skipped last year, mostly because they had booked the Canadian Idol kid to perform - what a joke, I stayed away on principal. Why not just have a Britney Spears look-a-like and make a full day of it - oh, hey - that Mulroney goof (the second one) could host -then it would be a perfect shallow, smarm-fest.

Anyway, hopefully the organizers were royally abused and ridiculed last year, and they are sticking to the festival's roots this year.

Wrap it up
Gotta get some breakfast and feed the cats! Weekend is here - yahoo. Oh wait a minute - it's always the weekend for me!

Your immediate assignment for today. Do this right this minute! Go get yourself a cup of coffee or tea - but make it something you haven't had before, or for a long time. Get the super mocha-choka-half-caf, or root around in your tea shelf for the last ceylon-chai-extra rich teabag. Let me know how it works out! Email addr at the left.
