Last 3 weeks of work begin today.
This is a 4-day week.
Next week is 5.
Last week of year is 4.
It's cold, sure, but surprisingly my knees aren't in any pain. I hit the gym pretty regularly during my time off but only ran twice and did minimal leg workouts.
Listening to the middle of Screaming Trees' Sweet Oblivion today. Probably more appropriate for a month ago but it still warms me up.
I think I just need a scarf and I'll be fine.
There will only be (at most) two more rides this week as there are Broadway plans on Friday.
I began reading Hemingway's In Our Time, which is basically a subset of stories contained in the complete Hemingway short stories edition I have. So I figure for the time being, I will read these in tpb form and that saves me a few trips with a heavier, 500-pg book. The difference b/w In Our Time and my volume seems to be that there are little descriptions b/w chapters. I am even thinking that I might read this all the way through and rather than schlep the big book with me, read it on weekends and trips, like I did with the Chabon book. So a few months from now I will have read an extra book. No one cares but me.
There is one story called "The End of Something" which I know as a Rollins Band tune. Looking forward to checking that out.
We started watching "The Apostle" with Duvall last nite. There's an hour left in it I am really liking it though. I love movies about the journey within and the subsequent journey on the road.
On the highway I passed a cone in the middle of the street. I alerted the construction guys nearby and then a cop at Vesey Street.
As I came up Albany, I noticed that the part of Church Street before me is paved. I really hope that is an indication of what's to come during my return trip.
Thank you for reading.
