Spring Arrives 2006

Tue 21 Mar
Winter stubbornly hangs on, because it was cold and windy today, relatively toward the regular weather in March. Although I had off last night, I didn't really do much outside of retiring early. -- for unknown reasons I was tired most of the day. I have only four weeks left in tax season, and soon it'll be time to prepare for it.
One of our longtime employes left this week, which serves as another notice I should be doing the same. Otherwise the routine continues its way. Meanwhile I learned someone who took the mail down on Friday couldn't handle the job.

Fri 24 Mar
The neurologist did little outside of confirming no organic causes. I did bring up driving which he confirmed that Mom should not do so. So nothing changed, and we'd like to keep it so.

Sat 25 Mar
I have finished reading all of GA vs Randolph, and I agree with the majority. If the police ask permission to come into a dwelling and there is disagreement, then the police may not, absent a warrant or probable cause with exigence. The next thing would be to find out if the conflicting interests each have capacity.
Roberts claims that the ruling obscures the rules Actually the decision clarifies the rule of consent to the police while minimizing the opportunity for coercion.

Sat 1 April
It will be eleven years when this pattern returns in 2017. I thought of several previous ones, although 1972 seems to be the most persistent, probably because Easter was 2 April. The next time Easter will be on 2 April is in 2051.
In 1967, I tried some traps for April Fools' Day around the house. In 1972, I walked -- after delivering newspapers -- to a local pharmacy -- to buy the New York Daily News and to read about the baseball strike. I used to buy it and two candy bars for 35 cents. In 1978, I was visting relatives here, never realizing that one day I'd be living here. I bought "Londontown" by Paul McCartney and Wings. I don't remember anything about the next three Saturdays for 1 April -- 1989, 1995, and 2000. I suppose one round of memories is enough.
This week the post on the gate and my brother's wheelchair were repaired, so we went to PathMark this morning. For the first time in four weeks, I didn't take off any of the Thursdays for appointments.

Wed 5 Apr
When I came home last night, Mom informed me that we have two appointments on Thursday. On the way home, I defied the American Taliban and went to WalMart to buy "Brokeback Mountain". I spent the evening watching it in English, after attempting the French version. This morning I tired the French version again. My ear isn't quite tunned into the language

Fri 7 Apr
Despite having more time by taking off the first job, I still did not get much done. We had a slight problem yesterday morning trying to get to the oncologist because I'd thought the oncologist was where the cardiologist is in Yardley. Anyway, we reachied there in time, then we went to PathMark. I think I'll take Good Friday off to get ready for Easter around the second job.

The pressure increases, for at Franklin Mills, we lost a preparer to Houston temporarily, and the other one is ill. It's simply bad timing, and I certainly won't mention it to the other job that I'm taking off Good Friday.
Our other appointment didn't come in at 2 AM, so I don't know what happened, but I cleaned out gutters and cleaned the livingroom. Clumps of grass and sowing the garden demand attention. I long for the end of tax season in ten days.
Norton the lobster makes his début today as the warehouse near Boston opens. In June, Tommy Hilfiger will come to my main firm, along with Oxford Golf.

Sat 8 Apr
Surprisingly we're not so busy this second-last Saturday of tax season. It's quiet as we approach a rainy midafternoon.
David Wright has a blog, and I wrote a comment in it. He was born in December 1982, and it seems he's starting to blossom as a player. Meanwhile, I'm trying to get thought Brokeback Mountain, version française
It was seventeen years ago that the Astronomy Club presented the observatories, and the planetarium on the fifth floor of Davy Lab. Right now Saturn, which Patrick Moore's "The Sky at Night" focused on in March, is in Cancer, near Praesepe. The first-quarter moon passed it this week. I saw it on Wednesday night.

It was a score ago today when i first met Keith. A flood of memories accompany such an event. I learned much that space of two weeks, yet it kept giving me more long after tjhe events. I suppose it run with the experience of life. Would I ever had thought that my initial encounters that week wouod change my perceptions, and those same perceptions would change with new experiences of Matthew Wayne Shepard and Brokeback Mountain. I suppose I grew up too fast and matured too slowly. I'm probably a score behind just because of my naïveté and innocence.
