I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Sleepy time when I lie with my love by my side

Not a lot got done this weekend, but did a lot. Finished my end of the hole in the wall project. It came out very nice. Smooth as a baby's bottom and not noticeable if I added that much depth to the wall. Next is just to paint it and then we rehang the pictures that were down there.

Yesterday we saw two friends married. The small service included them and us and their dog. Bette married them in a beautiful ceremony in the woods behind their place (a county park), I played the role of photographer and witness. Nobody bothered us for the ceremony and it went well. Everybody said "I will" in the right places. The rings went on without too much to do. The dog figured out something was up and calmed down. Racheal and Sean we wish you the best.

Spent a lazy Sunday morning sleeping in. Probably one of the last times I can do that before Viable Paradise so I enjoyed it to its full extent. Got little things accomplished, a letter in the mail, the newspaper read, things like that. Now I'm working on the chapters. Last night a bit of one in the future (I don't know exactly which one it'll be) came out and I wrote it out long hand.

So all in all a good weekend. How was yours?

Your wife can perform legal weddings? Cool!

And it's also cool that you could do that for your friends.

Yep, she has the Power. And our friends wanted their own kind of ceremony, so we were able to help. This, I believe, was my wife's second or third marriage she officiated.
