Yet Another Sunny Sunday
Posted By Kathleen David on March 30, 2008
Now if the temperature was just a bit warmer.
Today is going to be pretty quiet. Ariel has her teaching assistant job this morning but the rest of the day is not scheduled. Peter will be getting back from the Virginia Festival of books later today. And the U.S. Open will be broadcast on ESPN at 2 pm this afternoon.
I’m looking forward to tomorrow and the beginning of the baseball season. Then there will be something to watch when there is nothing to watch. But with the writers strike, there will be more new stuff this spring than we have seen in a while.
We did turn out the lights for an hour which got a call from a neighbor who wanted to make sure everything was OK since the house was dark and both cars were in the driveway and she saw us outside earlier in the day. I explained what we were doing for Earth Hour which took a bit more explaining that I thought it would. So that is how I spent 20 minutes of our lights being off.
I will have everything done and ready to ship tomorrow. The paint job turned out pretty well. I think I am going to Sharpie it to give it a very cartoon feel and complete the look. Then I have to get ready for Icon. Then I have a puppet project I want to complete before NYCC for the amusement of one of the guest. Then I have some time to get that doll done for Wendy’s class.
I am grateful for the ability to amuse people.
“I’m looking forward to tomorrow and the beginning of the baseball season. Then there will be something to watch when there is nothing to watch.”
Tsk, tsk. While you may read or surf while watching a game (there ARE those “extended moments”), you should never dismiss baseball quite so off-handedly. It IS the American pastime and a game deserves attention as a real-time event, with consequences—not a mere diversion. This is something that is difficult to find these days…save for the race for the Democratic nomination.
