Friday, 10/18

Well, this is different.

I'm supposed to be shooting yet another edition of “High School Bowl” this morning. Instead, a team has (sadly) dropped out, which means there's no shoot this morning, which means I have an extra hour and a half all of a sudden dumped into my lap.

It's strange. I'm not sure how I'm supposed to react.

I mean, I'm happy that I have that extra hour and a half in my life. Time is precious, so be gifted even a little more of it than I expected is indeed most welcome. But I enjoy doing “High School Bowl”, as well, and was really looking forward to today's shoot, as it featured a team (not the one that canceled) that shares my strange sense of absurdity and is always fun to interview during the show's halftime segment.

Guess I'll have to wait until the next round for that.

What am I going to do with my newfound hour and a half of time? Well, I've already worked out a bit, and my mom has a new tablet upon which she needs printer drivers installed. Other than that...I guess I'll just be catching up on a few things, noodling a little bit here and there, and then, before I know it, that hour and a half will have vanished, and I'll be back to wondering just how in the heck I've fallen behind schedule, even with that little gift in my back pocket.

Because that's how things roll these days.

We'll see how it turns out. I'm confident I can make good use of the hour and a half. Hopefully, I'll be able to make such good use of it that I can carry some of that time over to this weekend when, instead of doing some kind of work, I can play outside for a few extra minutes in what promises to be almost summer-like weather.

Because to ME, at least, that would be the best possible way in which to use that gift of an extra hour and a half.

Enjoy your (hopefully) nice weekend, as well!
