DaysWhat are days for?
Days are where we live.
They come, they wake us
Time & time over.
They are to be happy in:
Where can we live but days?
Ah, solving that question
Brings the priest & the doctor
In their long coats
Running over the fields.
Philip Larkin, The Less Decieved 1955
Apparently, days are for cleaning the bathroom & the kitchen, burning every decent Bob Dylan cd for little Dan before he heads out, eating Italian & drinking wine at Vitales, a barn party out in the country & visiting the family.
By the way, cleaning is quite cathartic, I can understand why Mark likes it so much.
It was a good run for the Tigers, the best year that I've watched in my lifetime maybe next year. Christie was complaining that I haven't blogged recently, so you have her to blame for this one.

Thanks Christie! See you tomorrow!
Thanks Christie. Clean is cool when you think of the alternative. It's shaping up to be a fine day.
I love the opening of the blog - what is a day for? In my mind it is to pack in everything possible and then some.
