Wednesdays...

are usually my favorite days of the week, on par with Mondays that is. Now, gazing out the window, I notice the bright blueness of a sunny day -who cares if it's cold? I guess those who can't afford warm clothes, but that's another story all together, wouldn't you say?

Through the chatter, I swim, past an encore of snowfall records, Federal bail-out of the auto industry, with something about a Car Czar, debates about restructuring, more on the recession, foreclosures here and there, Illinois governor's arrest, fraud investigation, a man-in-charge trying to get more than he deserves, bleep-full recorded conversations, the possibility of impeachment, major drama in the Senate House, O'reilly and his book, Secretary of State C. Rice heading back to Stanford, talking about how great a job her team has done for the past eight years serving the country, talking about the future, about the Palestinian state as if anything was achieved, but enough with her already, for there is also the 60th anniversary of the Human Rights Declaration celebrated somewhere - I suppose, and lets not look at the mess in Greece, the disappointments of the Middle East, Sudan's Darfur, the Somalian high seas, Zimbabwe, the fence at the border down south, Mexico's drug smuggling machine and its wide death trails...

Beyond, the stars say there is friction in the air, challenging configurations, and the Moon is in Taurus, a bit on the edge, hoofs thudding at the ground, steam coming out of its snout, so take a deep breath, and embrace serenity if you can. Friday looks even worse, with two grand squares and all, definitely not a good time to get too excited.

Closer at home, well, I've gone through one of my short stories, trimmed it here, polished it there... I think it is ready to be added to www.reehtales.com. The story's name is 'Green eyes.' I wrote it a long time ago, thinking of people I knew and hadn't seen for years. Anyway, 'Green eyes' will be accessible through the Stories page. Just go to short stories and click on... well, you know.

Now, it's time for me to get back to messing with the next tale. Be well and have a glorious Wednesday.
