why yes i am comparing my annoying morning to Tilted Arc
Hit a roadblock today behind the kitchen door.
Like, a giant one.
Like, one made of concrete and rusty iron that homeless dudes pee on in the night and keeps people from easily accessing their offices in Federal Plaza.
But that’s all okay.
We are pushing forward. We are shrugging our shoulders and sucking in our gut and finding a way to squeeze around it.
We are Practicing Tenacity.
And we are drinking forty gallons of coffee while we do it.
Meanwhile: concentrating on the other stuff. Long walk to Castle Island (it is 48 and gorgeous. i opened every window in this place). Doctor’s appointments made. Shepherd’s pie and cranberry scones (more on those tomorrow). Writing submissions. A Good Scent From a Strange Mountain. Our Handsome President’s speech on Afghanistan. Christmas cards to work on. Arrangements to make.
You know, for what it’s worth, I always thought Tilted Arc was kind of awesome. Kept things interesting, at the very least.

I’ve hit a road block lately, too. I am getting annoyed really easily with a lot of things in my life.
AND I just came back from vacation. What the crap is wrong with me?
Listen. Whatever’s wrong–it will pass. I just know it.

I haven’t been to Castle Island in years. I should remedy that, and soon, I think.
Good luck plowing through your road block. Coffee always helps. Scones, too.
