A New Song for Today!

I'm so excited...
And I just can't hid it.
I know, I know, I know, I know
I want you, I want you...

Well - I'm excited anyway!

Today was a good day.

I started by making a fool out of myself. I was in a meeting with the Assistant Deputy Minister and I was incredibly nervous. I planned to say "By working together School Authorities can obtain the services of Educational Specialists in Literacy, Numeracy and Spec. Ed." Instead I said, "By working together, School Authorities can get really, really, really, qualified people.... like, experts, you know... like in Literacy, Numeracy and Spec. Ed." Not my most eliquent moment!

But later I got a call with really good news - I really neat possible opportunity - so now I'm very excited! Yaaaaa!

So - a different song is appropriate for today.

You know, I almost always have a song in my head - is that crazy?

A Song that Fits the Mood Somedays!

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

"Fools", said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls"
And whispered in the sounds of silence

Enough about Vikings!

So - it's the 19th...

What's happening?

I have discovered that playing music on my laptop is condusive to an enjoyable work environment. Unfortunately I forgot about that today until almost the end of the day. That is how many of my genious discoveries end up - discarded and unused - useless...

Isn't is strange how knowing doesn't equal doing? Why is that?

Another topic - I just read a book called Timeline - very interesting. The premise is based on quantum physics and the multiple universe theory. Very interesting... It made me think - what if this is true? What if there were infinite multiple universes. What if there was another universe where I came to a key decision and made it differently, and therefore sometimes feel like if I went down another road i know how my life would have been different - maybe there are people I know in other universes - so when I meet them here, I feel like I already know them. Maybe that is where deja vu comes from... Maybe in another universe I had a different job, or fell in love with a different person, or never had children.

Those are my jumbled, mixed up thoughts for today!

Saturday

In the Park... I think it was the 4th of July...

So, today is a better day. We rented all 3 Jurassic park movies - which L and I have been enjoying together - although in J1 we had to skip the scary part with the kids and the rapter... L decided that part was getting too scary for him.

My hubby just asked me for a dinner date tonight - cool! Now, I'm trying to track down our special Valhalla card. I really, really like being taken on dates!

Well, that is all for today. God has a plan - I'm just trying to be patient & wait for him to reveal it... I'd much rather have a road map now!

Latter!
