"…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)

In Which I Edit A Vent
It's rare, but every now and then I feel compelled to come back and edit something I wrote. In this case, I was venting about UPS - specifically about the poor level of service I've gotten in the last year or so. I would say about 50% of the packages I get through UPS come with some level of hassle. Today was no exception - first, they required a signature for a package I specified no signature required, then they set a delivery window and did not come in their own designated window. I let it get to me and I shouldn't have. I just need to make the simple resolution to not patronize UPS or vendors that use UPS exclusively. I said all of that, only in lot more words. Other than that, it was a good day - work was productive, the evening has been pleasant, the weather is beautiful, and I am sliding into a wonderful summer night.
