It's Been Busy
and Not Always Good.
Got to paddle this week before going up to 'Baga to teach a kayak fundamental class yesterday. The preceding week was the end of the semester at the nursing college where I teach. That meant writing and correcting exams, answering endless e mails that began with "can you send me my grade" and, finally, breaking into a NASA-like computer system (complete with CIA protection) to post the grades. Just when I felt that wonderful sensation of going on break and being able to relax......the calendar on my computer went caput. Every scheduled event in my future life gone. So I have been scrambling to put it back together, and my greatest fear is that I won't show up for some obligation, something I consider sacred.
Still, it looks to be a nice day. Perfect for a nervous breakdown, sitting in a breezy meadow and crying and wondering just how things happen. Perhaps I can pull the wire off the toaster and give myself an electro shock treatment. Meanwhile, back up your calendar and
Paddle safe...

You just need to tip that kayak over a few times and re-scramble your brain patterns. Works like a charm for me. That and maybe get one of those old fashioned paper planners. While I love the gps, just having it and not my map and compass causes a tingly feeling in my nether regions.
Tingling, huh? Might there be a short in your shorts?
