11:50 AM - The Weekly Recap, Struggling to Be Spring Edition
March 13 to March 20

Music: Poisoning Pigeons in the Park by Tom Lehrer

If it’s Monday, and I didn’t sleep in past noon, it’s recap day.

This weekend desperately tried to be spring-like. It was quite sunny midday Saturday, but then some darker clouds moved in. Fluries began to swoop down, but it was so warm the flakes largely melted on impact, seemingly acting more like rain. Furthermore cloud cover was sporadic, so at times sunbeams dances around the snow. And being the twerp I can be, I refused to zip up my jacket.

I know you can’t change the weather by refusing to acknowledge it, but I would still argue it wasn’t that bad.

Some people may need to remind me of that midweek when the next major storm is expected to hit.

That all being said, here’s the rundown:

Last Monday, March 13, I recounted how another snowstorm mixed up my weekend plans, but that otherwise things were as normal as they ever get (which, admittedly, is only so close).

Tuesday, after a month’s gap I provide a summary of the two previous Valentine’s banquet entries in the hopes of finally finishing the recital of the tale. The brief recaps also buy me one more day to get my notes (and act) together.

Wednesday after many delays, promises, and fudging, we have the concluding entry in the Valentine’s dinner saga. We finally learn how the trumpeter coped with a stolen act, why boys should not be left unsupervised around ice and water, and how the pastor proved it really was a “sweetheart’s dinner.”

Thursday the weekly quote log touches topics including evil clowns, technical difficulties, and the love-hate relationship the press enjoys with politicians.

On St. Patrick’s Day I dug out the old green Matrix coding. Granted, one doesn’t need to have imbued various green liquids to be entertained by the dropping letters – I personally enjoy the effect while sober – but I figured it didn’t hurt.

Saturday I didn’t post but spent my library time trying to catch up on e-mail. I doubt any of you were concerned or even curious, but there’s a free tidbit on me.

To come: A personal obituary notice, of sorts...
