Head in the clouds, feet in the fog
Today was deliciously rainy, with fine, elegant raindrops falling for hours. Work was a little disjointed. A couple of meetings, a celebratory gift for one of our colleagues marrying an amazing woman, which we are eager to weave into our culture, and then I offered my office to colleagues to build a desk in, and some work. The walk home was in a downpour, so I got seriously wet for my ride on BART. Then gentle rain on this side. All in all, a great day.
This is disturbing. I reminded myself afterwards that the church is 100 people. STILL!!!
