Sometimes...

I have grand visions of writing grand entries in this blog.
Other times I use it as a tool to update friends and family as to how I am doing.
Sometimes I read something that I think is worth reposting.
Sometimes I put things down for myself.
Sometimes I do it for others.

I like to write at night best.
After Lauren has gone to bed and I am not quite tired.
I like for there to be music on.
Sometimes I write at work.
I do get bored.
I am at work right now

The phone just rang.
I talked to a man who wanted a refund.
He was in Hong Kong.
He was very nice.

I watched the inauguration at work today.
I was blown away by the music composed by John Williams.
I thought both of the prayers were excellent.
I know some non-Christians were angered by the first.
I know some white folks were angered by the second.
A lovely speech.

My allergies are acting up.
I would love a Benadryl
Cat slept on me last night.
But I do not want to become addicted.
To Benadryl?

My favorite part of the day comes in the morning.
I walk down the stairs and see Lauren for the first time.
She gets up an hour earlier than me.
She is awake.
I am groggy.
We smile.

I am at work.

I have very little else to say.
Good day.
