Today has just been off. And that pretty much goes with flow of things lately. Even last night someone said to me the moons must be in a weird alignment because people are acting weird lately. I don't know what's going on. I normally don't write about personal stuff on my blog, I put all that on my Facebook, but I need to vent!
Fist, I talked to the Boston PUG group last night, led by Matt Grazier. I was supposed to leave my house at 2pm. I got out to my car and the battery was dead. AAA came in 30 minutes, checked the battery, and it had a bad cell. So they jump started me, I went to Jeep, got a new battery in just a few minutes, and I hit the road at 3:30. Luckily I gave myself a lot of extra time to get there. I stopped at Matt's for dinner, 30 minutes late. Par for the course, his grill wouldn't fire up. We got to the PUG meeting 20 minutes late. I unpack and realized I left the print out of my notes on my desk. So I pretty much had to wing it. But all was good. I stopped for some food after and finally got home after 2am.
This morning I got up at 9am. I maybe got 6 hours of sleep (I need 7-8 to function. I love sleep). I had a golf lesson scheduled at 10. After the 30 minute drive there, I was told it's been pushed back to 11. Then 15 minutes later I'm told they can't take me till 12. So I say fine, I'll go out and play on the course. They said ok. I got out there and there's a league going through which means there's no way I'm getting out there. So I go home.
I load up my e-mail and see that PPA has announced the Super Monday courses for October. I am teaching one of them. I find my ad... and the information in it is wrong.
There was one shining light in all of this. I did get an e-mail from Joyce, Vaughn, and Briana from the PUG Meeting last night, who said:
"You inspired all three of us. Thanks for your presentation to the Pictage Users Group. Vaughn and Brianna are only 16 years old, and starting a little business with photo keychains from a summer course assignment. You showed them the excitement of photography, quite the accompllishment if you know how adolescents are. Well, they left your talk with an itch to shoot wedding photos right away. I'm going to nurture their aspiration to be as creative as you."
Now my moons are in alignment.
PS, friend me on Facebook! I now have Facebook on my iphone so I'll start updating it all the time.

It was awesome having you up for the PUG Richard. Thank you! I like blaming my broken grill on the moons and not the fact that i left in the heavy rain of the past month or so:)
