Through the Fog of Nyquil
Mar. 21st, 2008 11:42 amBecause of the number of symptoms I was having last night, I took some Nyquil which knocked me out and for a loop all at the same time. I had some wacky dreams that I need to write down because there is a good idea for a short story in more than one of them or a video game. So I am finally feeling a little more conscious and can put words together in the right order sort of.
Yesterday was "Won't you wear a sweater day" to commemorate what would have been Fred Roger's 80th birthday. I did wear a sweater. Fred Rogers meant a lot of me as a preschooler. I always loved and followed the adventures of everyone in the land of Make-believe. And he addressed a lot of subjects with his kind quiet way that kids could relate too. I could never think of Mr. Rogers raising his voice. It just didn't seem in his nature. Of course this is one of my first examples of puppetry. I will always remember the episode where he showed the children how the Land of Make-believe works and the puppets and sets that they used. I found that totally facinating.
Yesterday was also the first day of Spring so Happy (fill in the blank) for those who celebrate it. We had high winds that were blowing small animals down the block. But the crocuses are up as are the Daffodils so I am expecting a snowstorm any day now. Today is more wind but it does seem to be warming up a bit.
Today is Good Friday which is the beginning of the holiest weekend in a number of Christian religions. I wish a Happy Easter season who all who celebrate that this weekend.
Ariel has off from school until next Tuesday then I believe she also getting Passover off (which is during New York Comic Con). Usually Passover and Easter are pretty much on top of each other but not this year.
This weekend is also the Pro-Am which Peter and Ariel are going to participate in. Peter will be at the TV show on Sunday for the final. Due to a number of factors we decided that Peter should go to the taping.
Last night Peter and I went to the WGA party. It was fine but we were in Soho and hadn't had dinner so we found a nice little Bistro called Diva and had an excellent meal. It was nice spending some time as adults who aren't worried about our children breaking something as we ate dinner.
I am grateful that I got some peaceful time with Peter.
