oh life.

So, I think people are trying to tell me things. My friend Michelle recently dedicated a song to me, "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life," and in catching up with venom's life, she too has this song as a theme for one of her days.

So, I guess I am to look at the bright side of life.

Usually that isn't too hard - you just change your mind, I guess, lie to yourself, and say that everything is good, which I personally believe is a good tactic. I mean, life could always be worse, right?

Who cares if you're busy, and there isn't much time to just sit for a bit. There will be little moments, here and there.

Enough about that.

Just to warn you, some of these may get somewhat philosophical because in one of my classes we are talking about definitions of art, or iff you prefer, Art. It's fairly interesting, and I think once I get used to the way the articles are written, I'll enjoy it even more. I even possibly had a possibly intelligent comment today. phew.

And, well, on the way to Christmas in Qatar, I, with my cousin Paul, am going to stop off in Rome, Italy for a couple days! I do believe I'm excited. I'll have you know I have my a list of how many classes I teach, and am checking them off after every meeting (not that I don't love teaching, I truly do - it's one of those little ways I keep myself sane) and now I can have it be a count down of sorts to the big adventure.

Paul and I also decided that we'd document this to enter the next Delta Site-Seer challenge. Couldn't you just see us hosting a globe=trotting travel show?

And here we have the 19th century blah blah blah.

Perfect!

Maybe I could be the traveling oboist - go to different cities with orchestras, and play random gigs with them at night, but during the day, seeing all that there is to see? Hmm, somehow we should work Paul into this, An oboist, and a marine biologist. I think it could work.
