Is it me, or are these weeks now zooming by at indescribable speeds? Itβs the weekend, yet again! I know, here in the UK, this has been a shorter week than normal with the Bank Holiday on Monday, but it still had the same number of days as every other week in it, yet it seems to have gone by remarkably fast. Maybe we should have a βLeap Weekβ every now and then, where we can spend it doing just as we please, just so we can recharge our batteries and allow ourselves a nice little break before we grab a hold of time once again and rejoin the whir.
I think the important thing to do, when we get those little moments where we seem to step outside of time for a short while, is to really grab a hold of them. Do something memorable; create something incredible; savour the moment. Record that magnificent βAhhh!β moment within our very core, so we can recall it when everything turns upside down. Itβs good to dream, I find.
Speaking of dreams, I had an odd dream on Monday night. For some reason, I was in an episode of βThe New Adventures of Wonder Womanβ, from the late 1970s. Wonder Woman wasnβt in it, although there was a feeling of expectation that she would turn up at any given moment. βOscar Goldmanβ out of βThe Six Million Dollar Manβ and βThe Bionic Womanβ was also in this episode, although the title characters from both of those series didnβt appear either. We were in an old house, moving boxes, of all things. I had to go outside to the end of the garden path, to wait for a delivery truck to arrive. Whilst I was there, I was the only person around, back in the late 1970s. Over the road was a group of Seventies style shops, and I was tempted to take a photo of them on my smart phone. Something told me that doing this would disrupt the space time continuum, so I decided against it. I was then pondering as to whether to delete the other photos Iβd taken, when my bloominβ alarm woke me as it was time to get up!
Iβm still having timing issues with regards to blogging, although I think Iβm getting slightly better. Iβm getting a few more visits and comments in, which is good, and it isnβt taking as long for me to reply to comments on my blog either. Although, that saidβ¦ hmmmβ¦ Iβll come back to that.
On Tuesday, I started my Epic Mythology series. My intention is for this to grow and grow, exploring an unknown mythological realm where there are no rules and anything can happen. I intend to write this in rhyming form, and tell the tales of anyone who happens to turn up during the course of events. Where it goes and how long it will go on for remains to be seen, but I would like it to become as epic as the Poetic Edda (and the Codex Regius), if that can be done. The Poetic Edda/Codex, for those who are unaware, details quite a lot about Norse Mythology. Obviously, my mythology is brand new, but I can dream. And I could also do with a few Leap Weeks to get myself ahead of this game as well! But, I shall get there!
Itβs generally, otherwise, been a quiet week this week. Brexitβs still rumbling on, we now have to vote in the EU elections, which I have a feeling was planned all along since Brexit was βannouncedβ in the middle of the Eighteenth Century. I wonder what would happen if nobody voted? I know that would never happen, but what if it did? Weβd have no representatives in a body that we donβt want to be a part of. That would make things, ermβ¦ awkward.
In other βnewsβ this week, babies have been born, people have lost their jobs, folk have been banned from driving for illegally using their mobile phones, and, if we read between the lines, we can see that we are being coerced into thinking one way or another. Itβs fun when you spot it!
No direct links again this week, but please take a look at the βYou May Likeβ section over on the right to visit some posts I have enjoyed reading recently.
And thatβs it for now!
Have a great weekend!
