Something Good

Twilight Hue

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
I'm tired of doom and gloom.

Tell me something good that's going on.

It can be personal, or a news story. Just... anything.

(No politics, please.)
Oh, I did like the amazing recent tale of that Norwegian fisherman who snagged a nuclear submarine.



It put a smile on my face hearing it. How many fisherman can say they have those kind of bragging rights?
*grin*

I'll be heading to the PNW soon. As of now it's going to be an undisclosed location. I can't wait for the peace of being surrounded by vast forestry and mountains.

I'd be curious what the captain of that US nuclear submarine would say about it.

Oh he will be the butt end of jokes for decades to come! Heh heh.
He may find solace in the fact that he wasn't the only one. It's been a while, but Norwegian fisherman once pulled a Russian submarine out.

Tell me something good that's going on.
Now I've been happy lately
Thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be
Something good has begun

Oh, I've been smiling lately
Dreaming about the world as one
And I believe it could be
Someday it's going to come

'Cause out on the edge of darkness
There rides the peace train
Oh, peace train take this country
Come take me home again

I’m off to the historic Spa town of Bath, to take the waters, do a bit of pre Christmas shopping, see the sites, escape London for the weekend. Spa this afternoon, Roman baths and Medieval Abbey tomorrow, Michelin starred restaurant tomorrow night.

One thing puzzles me though. We’re staying two night; how come I can put everything I need in a small sports bag, but herself has filled a full suitcase and rucksack?

At O'Hare airport waiting for a flight back to Santa Barbara.

The night before a flight I usually have a lot of trouble sleeping, and since I had to get up at 6:30 this morning I didn't really expect to get any sleep at all.

Somehow or other I managed to get 8 hours anyway, or close to.
