No budget bill! The clowns in DC continue their political theater (more like vaudeville) despite the looming consequences. Dream on politicos--your fate is written on the voting walls!

Pleasant day today. Quite a breeze to keep things cool. Watched a Russian film Roads to Koktebel. It's a Russian version of a father and son road movie. The film was s-l-o-w with long drawn out scenes that worked sometimes and didn't at other times. I'm sure there was a lot of symbolism in the film (dislocation, destiny, sea birds, monuments, and much more). The boy, the indomitable spirit, completes his father's journey when the father takes to drink and companionship versus following their plan. Fate controls a lot of their actions but brings them "home" even if the final place is in the middle of nowhere.

PD dance class tomorrow and weight training as well. I had some caffeine this afternoon and it pulled me through into the evening. It really didn't give me any extra energy--just took the edge off of the drowsiness and lethargy. Still not finding anything that pushes me over the brink into activity and productivity. Dreaming time! Into the mists I go! Ready for the phantom light!
