Feeling the frustration

Well This morning on the way in to work, I lost power to the front end. Looks like the right front transaxle (suspicious major tear in the cv boot), could be the hub or the transmision. I had the joy of being an hour late and realizing that when I am done, the car is still sitting where I left it. If and when I get it fixed it will also then need a alignment. With all the snow and crap this has made for a joyous day.

WE are the music-makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams;
World-losers and world-forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world for ever, it seems.

With wonderful deathless ditties
We build up the world's great cities,
And out of a fabulous story
We fashion an empire's glory:
One man with a dream, at pleasure,
Shall go forth and conquer a crown;
And three with a new song's measure
Can trample an empire down.

We, in the ages lying
In the buried past of the earth,
Built Nineveh with our sighing,
And Babel itself with our mirth;
And o'erthrew them with prophesying
To the old of the new world's worth;
For each age is a dream that is dying,
Or one that is coming to birth.

Strange

In the last three days I have been contacted by Scott(havent talked to in months), Mackenzie(havent talked to in 12 years), Jared (havent talked to in months), Kammun(havent talked to in months)and Erin(havent talked to in months). So strange for a guy whos phone rarely rings, all these people suddenly reach out. ? Changes are abound tonight.
