There was just a hint of fall in the air
today, and while the cooler weather was welcome after such a long spell of hot;
it was also still sunny out for most of the day; and that was much nicer than
the rain last night.
I can’t say the same about the work, since
most of my outdoor chores today were fairly messy thanks to all of that rain;
but that’s just part of life sometimes – even for teen Magi Masters.
Too bad I can’t do those chores using my
Magi talents, since that would be easier and cleaner; but you know how parents
can be about such things! ;^)
Moving along, I did get called to help with
the breakfast shift at the Inn, but didn’t lose much time for the chores at
home because it was a quiet morning there; and I was set free by nine o’clock. Dad and I worked on the chores until about
three – except for a quick lunch break; and then I had some time to hang out
with Michael on his afternoon break before getting cleaned up and heading to
the Inn with him. No, he didn’t help me
out with that; but I’m sure we’d have fun with it if he did!
I obviously need to make more time for
Michael and me, but that’s easier wished for than done; and we didn’t get any
alone time tonight.
We worked at the Inn until eight; were set
free again and didn’t have to stay until close; and then we met up with Rowen
and Tim on our way to my house. While a
teen night had been the plan, we ended up having four junior movie-night
buddies for the first movie; and then the twins, Naomi, and Aiden went to bed
after that while leaving us alone to watch a second movie that didn’t require a
kid-friendly rating. Maybe we should
have stuck with Disney shows, since that movie was fairly terrible, but we
still had fun with it – even though I doubt the people involved in making it
would appreciate the fact that our entertainment came at their collective
expense. I won’t name the flick here,
but it definitely gets put into my personal category of movies that should
never have been made; and reminded me again that my perfect memory isn’t always
a gift when you can never forget anything you see or hear.
Michael, Tim, and Rowen went home after
that movie ended; mostly because Michael and I were worn out by then. A sofa sleepover with Michael would have been
nice, but we decided to be good; and I had some work to get done anyway after
they left. I got ready for bed; did the
family business work and a bit extra while in a time phase, and once this is
done; I’m off to dreamland.
This hasn’t exactly been a best-ever kind
of day, but it has been a good one; and an average, normal day now and then is
good for me. Getting some sleep before I’ll
be awake and at it again will be good for me too; so, until next time;
...May the Magi Force be with you!
