Doldrums

So what's a fine young blogger such as yourself doing on-line on a night like this?

I ask myself this question at this very moment (actually, not "this" moment meaning the one you're using to read this but "this" moment when I am writing this bit of..um...writing...) I find that I have reached the Friday night doldrums. This disturbs me a bit. The Friday night doldrums are OK after a killer week at school with several late nights up talking with students about the most difficult of things (usually the future). By Friday all I care about is having someone else cook me a meal, having a beer and collapsing on some relatively horizontal piece of furniture. But you see, I haven't had one of those weeks.

My plan had kind of been to go to a David Wilcox concert with the lovely wife but things didn't work out so well on that front. It seems her work has sort of poked it's nose in so I've missed David twice in a row now. I'm a bit bummed actually and have little interest in rousing myself towards much else for the evening. I expect things will be a bit boring until I/we decide to go to bed. I guess the earlier I do this the earlier I can get out of the Friday night doldrums and onto Saturday which I hope will begin with a good ride of reasonable distance.

Anyways, until next time...
