| Birthday Girl with her Mom in the Ball Tent |
Okay, I’m not real proud as I do
consider myself as some sort of champion for Fridays but last night I was in
bed by 9:30! Something is definitely wrong with the universe. I’ve noted one of
the “benefits” of getting older is an accumulation of fatigue over a work week culminating
on Friday but it’s always been something I’ve been able to ranger my way
through. Not last night, of course, it could have been getting up at 4am so I
could greet my early arriving employees on Veterans Day. I only had two beers
at First Friday but it felt like a lot more due to the weariness.

| Every Ball Must be Inspected |
Something that did compromise this exhaustion
was talking with the birthday girl last night. She was sitting in the birthday gift
I sent her – a small tent filled with balls (hypoallergenic of course). I was
happy to see her enjoying it so much but we both thought it needed more balls.
Before I went to bed I ordered another shipment of balls to be delivered early
next week, proving access to the internet while under the influence is not
always a bad thing; but certainly to be avoided.

| That Smile! |
At any rate I got eight hours of sleep
for the first time in a very long time and it felt great, especially on one of
those signature New England autumnal nights of plunging temperatures after a
brilliant day. We also had some scouring winds that stripped a lot of the
foliage but also moved most of the leaves off our hilltop lawn. It must suck to
live downhill.
