I slept rather well, with lots of unremembered dreams. Thatch stayed with me all night. DR Laura was so right about him six years ago when I was despairing that I'd ever taken him on. He is so dear to my heart.

Stella has also turned into a lap cat, jumping into my lap at the strangest times. She doesn't like to be held, but she has no problem climbing onto me and settling down for a bit.

I won't get much work on the ballet today, but I have a lot of traveling between the basement and the apartment.

Had a dream in which an old friend I hadn’t seen in years showed up. I knew his name before he arrived but forgot it when he appeared, at least for a while.

I think that, for retirees, every day should be Tuesday.

Tuesdays are so mellow...so warm and inviting. 

Wednesdays just remind you that tempus fugit, and there is no slowing it down.

Agree about Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I’ve thought that for several years now.

I slept, for the most part, very well.

I did dream, but what I dreamed makes no sense.

At one point, I was cooking for my folks and three guests.  I had some elaborate baked potatoes and was oooking steaks.

Thing is, I was cooking those steaks in an oven, which I never do.  But they were large, and I had two.  I should easily have been able to cut them up and provided plenty for all.

But when I took them out of the oven, they had shrunk considerably.  I sliced the steaks up and put chunks on the table.  I was very embarrassed.

I then woke up and pondered the imponderable.

Sounds like a very successful evening last night. I’m stunned, though, at the audience of twenty. I get what BK says about the difficulty in getting people off of their ASSES and into the theeder, even for free. But man oh man, that’s pushing it.

Agree about Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I’ve thought that for several years now.

It seems a bit arguable, I guess, but five-day work weeks were always the same:  Mondays, the work was sporadic, but rushed.  Tuesdays were mellow and much got accomplished.

On Wednesday, management panic would set in about some projects.  It was a hurry-up-and-wait day, so far as I was concerned.

Thursdays were okay, and it was always a goal to get ahead of the curve and most of what needed doing done by Thursday.

But no...nobody was ever available to review and sign stuff on Thursdays because they had meetings or urgent new projects to tackle.

Fridays were always happy day because the weekend loomed, but I often paid dearly to get through a Friday, running hither and thither, getting everything I could signed and ready to mail out or deliver to another office.

Fridays used to be great fun when I was much younger because there was Friday night.  Friday nights became early-to-bed nights in my later years of working.

I believe I have voiced my opinions about three-day weekends.  They were always great, but the Tuesday on which you returned to work was ruined by management panic.

Still, it was better than when i was in school and procrastinating all weekend about reading this or writing that...and then trying to cram everything into a few short hours on Sunday evening.
