Another Sunday emerges out of the turmoil that was last week and it is all mine to do whatever I want to do with it. My responsible self wanted to take care of unattended details such as paying bills, doing laundry, having quiet time with my business to resume order. Instead, I went hiking in Carefree. The day was paradisaical, starting with getting lost and doing the Carefree / Cavecreek loop a time or two adamant we would NOT ask for directions. Though the intended hike was Seven Springs, the destination became Spur Cross something or another. The outcome was perfect. An easy hike, argumentally subjective. Ending with was was meant to be sandwiches, chips and wine in the back of the Expedition. However after discussion became fried chicken and strawberry shortcake at the Horney Toad. With tired bodies and satisfied bellies, Sunday concluded.
Work is continued bedlam but with the addition of a new character, Katie Lane. She is not only going to fit in but I suspect will snowball us all with her extreme personality and rival Emo's humor. First day on the job someone askes her how she knows me. With straight face she says we were once Lesbian lovers ????? With fits of laughter, Katie has intregrated herself into our Overflow community.
Many events of this past week clamor to stand out. And the winner is:
Rodney hits the wall.
Friday night was dinner at Carvers which is a blog entry in and of itself. Late night happily installed in bed there is a tremendous crash about 1 AM that can be none other than that a car has crashed into the wall behind my house. I always knew it would happen for some reason. And so it did. I did the obligitory call to 911 and barely dressed for the occassion to go rescue the victim. Who turned out to be Rodney. My pal Rodney crawled to the sidewalk and I tried to console him while we waited for help. There we sat, I holding Rodney's hand and telling him he was OK while he babbled incoherently. We bonded, though he will never remember it. I suspect Rodney has bigger troubles than just hitting the wall.
