July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |
| Actor Matthew Broderick was born on March 21st, 1962, and one of his most famous roles is in the move Ferris Beuller's Day Off . After faking being sick to his parents so he can skip school, he turns to the camera and says "Incredible. One of the worst performances of my career and they never doubted it for a second." Have you ever accomplished anything of significance (even just something fun) by sneaking your way out of something else? Probably more than once. There was a High School math class I remember. It was boring and also unruly. It was a required general math class in 12th grade. I managed to miss a lot of it. As long as I turned in my assignments, kept my grade level high, with the assignments and spent certain days in the class I was often excused. I spent most of the year as secretary to the chorus, completing secretarial projects for the chorus teacher during math class time. Actually that was fun for me. I did not like the class and I acquired experience with the secretarial work. Children use the bathroom excuse or the I need a drink excuse to avoid lots of work related projects like cleaning their rooms or their closets, or hanging up a coat?? Who remembers?
