How Sad a Passage

COUNTESS "This young gentlewoman had a father,--O, that 'had'! how sad a passage 'tis!--whose skill was almost as great as his honesty; had it stretched so far, would have made nature immortal, and death should have play for lack of work." -Act I scene i, All's Well that Ends Well.

Swingeing Detail

Ah, the old standbys, heard echoing through the office halls.  Funny to hear such words so often, and realize they are so little used, in other contexts.  A useful link here, as contrast.

Registration submitted today for New Bedford - one of the geekier moves to date and yet one that nicely reinforces the Ahab commitment.  The thoughts on the way into work this morning are consistent with a general theme - that it has now become a question of timing more than anything.  Late 2018 or mid 2019?  The perusal through the bookstore at lunch, and hovering in the travel and also the cooking sections.  Heh.  The continued distractions.  The

Off to get some groceries.  Fun over the last week watching Canopy rise.  One of the first rodeos, likely not the last.  A bit of money left on the table, but experience gained, and a solid overall win.  Trust your instincts.  Timing is always tricky, but worth it for the learning.  The fun of the psychology of it.  Candlesticks and tombstone technical finishes.  Such language, even here.  (recalling "...books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.")

News that Halladay is dead today late this afternoon.  40.  Not directly an omen, of course, but ever a reminder. 

But...  for now the timing question can be shelved for the Southern Ocean.  Much needs to, and will, transpire over the next span of days, until the May return and the potential June acquisition...  2011 it was the boat, 2012 it was the condo.  Does 2018 hold a similar destiny?

Time, Ozan says, will show.
