This afternoon I was in a meeting where a series of charts and graphs were projected onto a large screen. These particular visual aids consisted primarily of two trend lines with certain benchmarks also indicated. The lines were blue and purple; the backgrounds in the slides were green. Apparently everyone else there could differentiate those colors. I could not.

I didn’t contribute much to that meeting, but at least I was able to nod at the right points (ie when everyone else did) and look like I was getting something out of it. I think my secret is still safe.

Good gravy it is tough to be inside right now. I should have faked an injury and stayed home today. The Jr VP and I should be at a park somewhere, playing on slides and shrieking with glee. At least at his school there is a nice big fenced backyard where the lad and his pals usually play when it is sunny. Jr. has a good time with the other kids he hangs out with, and I think he likes making jokes when he’s with them. Example: the other day when I picked him up he looked at me, got a huge grin on his face, and shouted Mommy! Mommy! He and his cronies proceeded to crack up. Good one, boy. Now get in the car.
