I dreamt I was running with Balt last night and then woke with terrible cramps at 4am. The morning proceded in a fog. Yesterday had felt like Friday, so today was like some crazy day between Friday and the weekend. Luckily the school day went quickly and before I knew it I was out in a field walking Balt. I'd like to run with him, but I'm not ready.
I have a student who is on twitter making turtle drawings for anyone who tweets in a request. Of course I got in on the action and got my picture this evening (it took a while). I am pictured with torch in hand and goggles on. Today I had my first casting failure. It was a turtle design ironically. The metal spilled out and got all over. I burnt my shoes- nothing else. The kid's turtle only got metal in his feet-- he was not happy. I'm at a 7 to 1 success rate now. Not terrible. I should just avoid casting on days I am in a fog.
My husband came home for dinner and together the two of us made a fire and sat reading. He started a movie but I was unable to keep my eyes open long enough to enjoy it. He's a late night type and the older I get the harder it's getting for me to stay up. I pretty much pass out in any position, under almost any conditions if its after midnight.
