no, that's not a misspelling... it's not "mooing" at midnight... there has been no recent rural cow tipping that i'm aware of. it's mowing at midnight. as in lawn mowing. as in mulching the leaves in my yard (the blanket of leaves that fell last week)

It's not actually midnight, but it was close to dusk when i started... and by the time i was finished, the dim street light was keeping my lines straight in the front yard. i felt sort of odd, but realized the alternative was to wait until the leaves were dry...before a snowfall... and decided this was a great time to get the task accomplished.

walked into work today. my file cabinets had notes on them. please move your belongings into another (inferior, insufficient) cabinet because the one you're using isn't the right height or color. we dont' like your cabinet. signed - the principal. [that was a paraphrase]

...so, instead of being quazi productive today, i was trying to find things and feeling a bit frazzled. when i left on friday, i had a "Monday Morning" pile... so I could just pick it up and walk down to my classroom and viola - perfection! instead I was rooting around, trying to recreate the pile and having limited successes.

but, overall, it was a better day.

my fever from yesterday went away after taking two little white capsules... there's an amazing new drug called 'tylenol' (a neighbor of slightly less new 'asprin') and i just felt loads better after swallowing two of those yesterday. i'm a whole new person. functional and all.
