Wipe Out (A Surfing Term)

It was a fairly good week, considering all I accomplished. At least, for me. The only glitch was missing my Mandarin class this morning. It seems my somewhat strenuous end of the week took a toll on me. After a sleepless hour or so in the middle of the night, I ended up sleeping long past dawn. I'm sure I needed the sleep. I am, however, as sometimes happens after catching up on much needed zzz's, moving like molasses. Both physically, and mentally. But, no worries. Other than the Mandarin class I missed, my only other scheduled event will be to go walking later this afternoon with Mom, which will be good for both of us since I didn't get in any exercise this morning. And lo and behold, the sun is out. It's turning into a spectacular day. Yeehhaa, as the cowboys (of one kind or another) might say.
And so, until then, I will hang out with Eddie, read the paper (newspaper), watch a little TV, and maybe try to finish a book: Rise Again by Ben Tripp. A quite excellent apocalyptic zombie tale. As the drunk in the bar, from the movie The Birds, said so well, 'It's the end of the world!' Of course, he did it in an Irish accent of sorts. 
Albert's not big on halloween, although he does like horror movies of almost every type. I think he just enjoys seeing humans getting killed in all kinds of ways. Don't get the wrong idea about Albert. He doesn't really care for humans very much, but he is a very easy going fella' for a bear. I've grown quite fond of him. Seems kind of odd, but there it is.
Whatever you be doing today, I hope it gives you some enjoyment. Be kind to each other. At least don't be unkind to each other. You can do it.
