The great thing about Monday is that anything can and will happen. Consider today:

After spending all morning fixing the damage from a campus wide power outage, The Poet calls with news of picking up an extra summer class ( more money, always good ) just in time for a crown to break, but that’s OK, because the dentist is reasonable about billing.

Four vultures congregate directly over my office. Really.

Moments later, my boss tells me he is enjoying my book.

Driving home on a major highway, a tire blows out on the trusty Nissan. This is actually good because one, nobody was hurt, and two, wear patterns indicate another tire is at risk, which would have been very dangerous. Triple AAA towed the car across a million zones and without complaint to my mechanic ( closed for the day ).

A final plus: my neighbor once again proves how awesome he is by letting me borrow his car while mine is being fixed tomorrow.

It is, as they say, a Monday.
