Maybe Summer Is Just Ending

For a while I thought I might be developing allergies, but now I think I just need to pluck my nose hairs more often. Honestly, I've been much less sneezy and stuffy since I brought out the tweezers.

Then again, this is a personal observation, so I may just be crazy.

Happy Workers

The trick to getting projects done is to throw yourself in to them, and just pick a place to start from. If you can actually start from where you've chosen, all is good. If you can't, well, you just have to adjust your starting point and work from there. Whichever the case, you work on the portion you've chosen, finish it, and move on to another area. If one thing is taking a long time to do, feel free to switch around, just to keep from getting bored. The point is, keep working, and eventually you'll be done.

Ye Auld Anglishe

I have tried to read the Canterbury Tales by Chaucer before, but that was years ago. I am learning again, what I learned then, that the best way to approach the material is with a running start, and to not allow yourself to slow down. The way it is written is very phonetic, and if you ignore the words on the page and just listen to the sound of your voice, you can make much better sense of everything.
