This round of grading is done. And now the rest of the day I, so deeply immersed in the effort, may just stare at a screen and think, I should really get back to those grades …
But what I really should be doing is getting on with the three or four other projects before me.
What I’ll probably do is look forward to all of the grading I’ll have to do next week.
Anyway, did you see Poseidon in today’s installment of Catober? They’re taking turns. Today was his solo debut for this Catober. He took this role very seriously. Tomorrow it’ll be back to Phoebe’s cuteness. See them all here.
I did not go on a bike ride today. A second rest day seemed important. But I did shoot this video on a ride last week, and I’m trying to clear out some old stuff, so here you go, a road that deserves a slower pace.
This evening I stepped outside to water some plants and take out the garbage and I found some great big blooms on some great big bushes.

It is the first week of October Catober and these guys are just having a show. I choose to see this as a sign of an exceedingly mild and pleasant end to the calendar year, and a warm and dry beginning of the new one.

Because now I have to mildly worry about that for the next four months.
Anyway, a light day today, if only because I thought every other day this week would be thin and they were and I’m tired, and so on. But there will be more tomorrow, plus Catober!
