Ain't nothing he's bad at.


I mentioned very briefly yesterday that Rick is excellent at everything - and he is. He is the most deliberate person I know. He makes me think of that saying, "How you do one thing is how you do everything." In this photo, he's flying one of his planes. He's not going full throttle, he's not doing anything foolish or impetuous. He's doing something beautiful - with intent...or "con carino", as he likes to say. He is conscientious enough about the impact he has on others to not just say things off the cuff, or without a solid foundation. He believes in respect, honesty, and fairness.

Plus, he has a mean golf swing, makes good eggs, and has an amazing smile.

I'm pretty sure I like him.


LAST NIGHT I totally had a nightmare that freaked me out. I don't remember a lot about it; only that I was in a house and there was something really scary and evil in it. I didn't see any shadows or monsters or ghosts or anything, I just had a feeling that something scary was in there with me. When I woke up at 1:50 a.m., I was still scared. I fell asleep and woke up exactly one hour later. I got scared again, and was kind of too creeped out to go back to bed, but I was exhausted and managed to fall back asleep and stay that way until the alarm rang this morning. I rarely have nightmares anymore, so it was weird. I was all, "Oh snap, I'm scared."

No foot injuries today, thankfully.

Group was exhausting, and I'm very glad that I don't have to work on Fridays. After work, I met Big Rick at Murray's, and then Rick Rick (see above) came and joined us. We spent a little bit more time together talking after dinner and then I went home and cleared up some internet issues with my dork provider. I got a phone call from my cousin Joann, who had a baby in October, and so I've made plans to see her and Isabella tomorrow for lunch. I'm excited to catch up with her.


I'm off to take a shower and go to bed now. It's lame that I'm so tired, but I'm coming to a certain level of acceptance regarding the fact that I am just old.

Goodnight!
