"…Living only for the moment, turning our full attention to the pleasures of the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves; singing songs, drinking wine, diverting ourselves just floating, floating….refusing to be disheartened, like a gourd floating along with the river current; this is what we call the floating world…” Asai Ryoi, in Ukiyo Monogatari (Tales of the Floating World, 1661)

Easing Into The Weekend
I am glad I made it to the weekend. The workday wasn't too bad - it was Friday, so it was relatively quiet from a customer standpoint, meaning I actually had time to do some regular O&M work. I took it easy through the day - slept a little late, conversation with T.R., easy drift into the office, then a leisurely lunch. I came home at the end of the day, stopped to get a haircut, took a shower, had pizza for dinner, and am now alternately reading and watching "Ancient Aliens" into the night.
