I had such high hopes for today. I was going to walk to the post office, to mail something. I was going to take my Tablet and take pictures along the way. Alas, the sun defeated me. I couldn’t see the screen for the glare. I tried to get one shot. I haven’t even checked yet if it turned out.
It does not look as striking in photo as it did in person.
Why, look, here it is. I got my Tablet and found it. It took me a minute, being me. This was just a little way down my street. A block or so later I saw a tree with some buds on it and thought, Score! Well, I still couldn’t see the screen but was pretty sure it was in Selfie mode, and I couldn’t get it out. Just now I confirmed it WAS in Selfie mode, so at least I did not take a stupid picture of myself. Anyways, I said to hell with it and took my walk. I will have to do the walk and picture thing on a more gloomy day, which is my preferred kind of weather in any case.
In the meantime, blog posts must be made (because they are not there) (see what I did there?). In the spirit of Wuss-out Wednesday, which I am indeed having, I will take this opportunity to announce that I have decided I will NOT be running the Boilermaker 15K in Utica, NY this July. I just don’t have time to run as much as I need to with all these rehearsals. Perhaps I would have time if I trained really hard after the play, but I can’t take that pressure. I like to start early and build up slow. This way, I can run purely for my own exercise and entertainment, which is what I like. I’ll think about Boilermaker 2020 next year.
I somehow feel that I should have more than one picture. Hmmm….
A toast to Wuss-out Wednesday?
This is a rehearsal shot from A Trivial Murder, the murder mystery we presented this past Saturday to benefit the Herkimer County Historical Society. I think they are actually toasting a dead guy, but let’s pretend they are toasting me. Now I think my Wuss-out Wednesday is veering into Non-Sequitur Thursday territory, which is ironic, since I am actually posting this on Wednesday (by my own clock if not my WordPress timestamp). I’d better quit while I’m ahead.
