Yay! I didn't go to sleep at some insanely early time tonight!

Maybe the holiday weekend 'reset' my inner circadian rhythm. Or maybe it's just a fluke. But tomorrow's 'Tower Prep', so I should stay up at least until 10 or 11 pm then. :)

It's midnight now, though, so I think I'll head to bed. Gee, I've blogged a lot lately.

PS I did get a bit of bad news tonight. Angie, who's been so good as to give me rides three times a week, has her last day coming up soon (she's a temporary employee, and they've hired someone else to take the job permanently because of some sort of issue where it would have been too expensive to 'buy out' from the temp agency, whatever that means). Anyway, I really need to get her a thank-you gift before her last day. The day before we're having a Books Are Fun book fair. That has a lot of possibilities. :)

Thank you Brandon and Angenette

for coming out on a night of nasty weather to give me a ride home. Although the rain has mostly stopped, the thunder's still going and it's very muggy. I appreciate it.

Proof there are good people in the world

A shout out to Alice, a neighbour with whom I was not acquainted who, upon arriving home from her job at Wal-Mart and ready to enter her home and rest, saw me walking in my store uniform and offered to take me there, even though it would delay her relaxation. I had taken a nap between jobs and had overslept; I'd have been a couple minutes' late otherwise, and I decided to trust this stranger. Thank you, Alice, for your kindness, and for showing that there are good people in the world. You are a blessing.
