Giving Thanks 

Much Music's in town, I've been reading Ali's Blog and I went to Andrew's for Thanksgiving dinner this weekend. All together, this gives material for a blog.
I guess it's boils down to what my Mom and I were talking about the last couple of times she's called. She was talking about the Toronto job thing, but it applies pretty generally. The basic points were:

  1. Life, such as it is, is pretty good.
  2. You never know where a rejection can take you
  3. Go easy on yourself

Now, I don't want you to think I was crushed after Toronto, because that's just not true. And, once I'd stopped trying to reassure Mom of the same and listened to what she was saying, I realized that these are good general points. You don't need a crisis to stop a second and take stock, although crisis is generally when we do that.

Well, I'm not in crisis [though exams can feel that way sometimes]. I just feel that things are pretty good. And I want to write about what's right for a change.

--> This is going to be long, I can tell. Forgive me: I'm out of Constitutional and I need a break before attacking evidence and, maybe possibly, the paper.

To be continued....
