Today is Jilly Moose’s birthday, so Happy Birthday!
Yesterday a fun thing happened to me: as I was walking from work to Irish class
downtown, the Wienermobile passed me. It played the “Oscar Mayer Wiener” song,
then the guy inside it saw me and said over the loudspeaker, “Go Pack Go!”
since I was wearing my Packer hat. Later I saw it parked downtown. It would be
awesome to get to ride in it…
This morning started off weirdly for me. I forgot my lunch
and would have to buy it, which seemed especially lame since Travalon had made
a special trip to the co-op last night to get me some lunch for today. Then I
stopped for gas on the way to the bus stop and somehow forgot my wallet in the
car. Luckily I realized it just before getting on the bus, and there was time
to go get it and still catch the bus. Whew! I was just settling in at work when
the fire alarm went off, so we all had to go stand out in the rain for fifteen
minutes until getting the all clear. Then I went back out into the rain to a meeting I had been
invited to, though I wasn’t sure why, and going to it did not enlighten me any
further. It seemed sort of irrelevant to me. At lunch I usually do a rosary
walk, but it was still raining. Not wanting to hide in my office, I ran to the
greenhouse where I had worked as an undergrad and checked out the plants. Some
from my day are no longer there, but it is wonderful just to be around so many
plants. Later in the afternoon I had another meeting… only I didn’t, it’s
tomorrow, and I had it wrong on my calendar, so that was yet another trip out
into the rain for nothing. Not a horrible day, just a weird one… so far.
