What an awful name for a day of the week. Honestly. Hump Day? It sounds so crude and rude. Images of humpback whales are interspresed by pornographic movies of people humping themselves on their way to work ... Do people really get excited about the fact that Wednesday is in the middle of the week?
Its almost like we measure ourselves by milestones and events to bring some sort of cultural meaning into our life. Check off the day and move on... don't call it Wednesday, call it Hump Day. Instead of enjoying the day, lets just look ahead to the weekend because work is not supposed to be fun (right?) and fun is what counts (right?). Geez! No wonder our lives are so fast and fleeting and inconsequential ... even as we insist on being of some consequence.
Well, damnit, I'm going to enjoy Wednesday! Here, on the couch.
Its 11:30 right now and I have paid bills, phoned three music venues to book Pawnshop Diamond for our Northern BC tour in June, played with the kittens, made arrangements for the kids this weekend and eaten. What's more is that the pain has lessoned considerably today. I only just took 1/2 a painkiller because it was getting a bit much. That is over 12 hours since the last time I took a painkiller. Still a lot of discomfort, of course, but hey!, I did break a couple bones!
Kittens charging around right now. I had to scoot them off the coffee table as they were eating my food!
Weather today is periodically slightly overcast. Strong breeze and a satisfying high of 18 C.
