stormdogI may need a new belt soon. Or a new hole in the one I have. I noticed yesterday that I'm using the smallest notch. When I bought it this summer, I think I was using the third one. I suppose if I have to trade in, I'll at least have a nice strop to do fine sharpening on the blades that I don't own.
There was free breakfast today in honor of the holiday. Pancakes, bacon, ham, eggs, and a bagel with cream cheese. It was quite good, particularly th bacon. I don't think I'll be hungry 'till dinner. Which, incidentally, is going to be meat loaf, courtesy of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Speaking offarm_cat, we enjoyed our time spent with the meditation group last night. The website indicated that it ran until eight, but they've changed the format to run 'till eight-thirty, so we left a little bit early so she could run her other errands. We intend to go back next week for the full span though.
The evening is three 25 minute spans of sitting zazen, seperated by five minutes of walking meditation. Including the two of us, there were a total of seven people, so the group was definitely a manageable size for me. The experience was a very calming one. I've read a lot about zen and Buddhist philosopy, and a little bit about meditation, but I've never really done it before. I obviously haven't done it enough to know what I think of it with certainty, but I'm looking forward to going back.
Oh; I almost forget to mention! I am at work today in my satyr horns, my hair down, and the set of pan pipes thatwooisme bought me around my neck. *bounce* I've been mistaken for the devil a few times, but I guess I can live with that.
