"…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)

The Days to Kill in The Kingdom of Heaven
A nice day, all in all. I woke early, spend an hour or so reading Flipboard, then went out and met Tony for breakfast. From there, we went to Barnes and Noble - I picked up a Jack Kornfield book and a book on art. After that, we saw "Three Days to Kill" with Kevin Costner. It was an enjoyable movie, based on a story by Luc Besson. Then, from there, I came home, had an apple salad for lunch, took a nap, and then spend the evening alternately reading and then watching Ridley Scott's "The Kingdom of Heaven" with Orlando Bloom and Eva Green. I guess this was a weekend for movie. I enjoyed it and I am looking forward to the week to come.

It was a most excellent Friday.
A few of the high points.
Breakfast at Goodies II on Bascom Avenue.
A couple of productive meetings, even though I had the day off.
A wonderful evening spent web surfing and conversing with T.R..
Then, in the slow hours of the evening...a classic...Kevin Costner's Waterworld.
Yes, a most excellent Friday.
