Quitting anger for Ash Wednesday

Actually, I'm just trying not to indulge in it for Lent.

I get mad. Angry at new stuff or angry at stuff from 15 years ago. Whatever, it's all pointless.

So, I'm trying to give it up for Lent.

I'll let you know how that goes.

Irony

I find it ironic that, when our one car breaks down, we suddenly have two.

The Neon needs a new head gasket and is in the shop. I borrowed my mom's car and Mary Ellen left us her car for the weekend, so -1 = 2!

Paper scissors rock

Microwave distorts cordless phone and both of these two trounce my wifi connection.

Is everything 2.4 ghz? Anyone have a phone that's not? I need one!

Sweetness and light

I called Uly that today and then was pleasantly surprised when I looked it up --

sweetness and light
A phrase popularized by the nineteenth-century English author Matthew Arnold; it had been used earlier by Jonathan Swift. According to Arnold, sweetness and light are two things that a culture should strive for. “Sweetness” is moral righteousness, and “light” is intellectual power and truth. He states that someone “who works for sweetness and light united, works to make reason and the will of God prevail.”

A lot of work today

I have a lot of stuff to do today - CityBeat work, bills, service work planning and care of Uly.

I'm trying to get it all done. (caught up.)

Anyway, not much to say. I feel like I have to do a lot more with less time and make better choices in that time.
