This morning was foggy, so I tried to take the back way to the school to look at foggy ponds. Well... I did manage to see several foggy ponds, but I didn't quite manage to make it to school in an efficient manner. I had plenty of time, so I wasn't late, but I went fairly far out of the way a couple of times. *shrug* At least I can say I never was really lost. Just didn't know where to turn, is all. Because honestly? I never would have guessed that one-ish lane, overgrown road would turn into a road with a double yellow line.

Now, however, I am basically just waiting for my dentist's appointment which I have to leave for in about 45 minutes. Not quite enough time to do anything with. Especially in my brain-dead state. I'm seriously considering asking Geoff if he'd be responsible for Page tomorrow morning, as I just want to sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep. That actually might be a need, not a want...

And yes, I do have homework. And yes, I am avoiding it at the moment. I have to figure out what problem I'd be willing to analyze that I'm also willing to share with the teacher and or the class. Not many current problems (that aren't already under some action plan of some sort) come to mind that fit both bills. But I'm sure if I can't find something real, I can come up with something that sounds real. After all, that's what writing fiction is all about.

This book is starting to annoy me, though. Its persistent optimism is grating, seeing as it says everything is in your own power where success is concerned. That's certainly true, but only up to a point. Environment and actions of others DO affect your own efforts toward success, and sometimes, they can't be worked around. Not without betraying yourself and/or something/someone as precious.

But then, I'm in a bitchy mood, and bitchy moods are not necessarily compatible with forced optimism.

I should go. I ought to clean my teeth before I go get them cleaned, and all that. And open house at the school is tonight. yay.

At least tomorrow looks to be a relatively laid-back day. I need one or three of those.
