Quote for the week

From Puzzability's Say What?:
W.H. Auden said, "Geniuses are the luckiest of mortals, because what they must do is the same as what they most want to do."
It was a very decent birthday. Although I was glad I'd gotten all my celebrating in on Saturday, because I wasn't thinking very much about it being my birthday while in synagogue most of Monday :-) As someone said on Saturday night, though, "Lucky you, you get a brand-new soul for your birthday!" And that was kind of a cool way to think about it. New year, clean slate.
( speaking of celebrating... )
Postscript: Also, I am now officially down nine pounds in the six weeks since this pair of entries. Without even trying. (I think Yom Tzom Kippur helped cancel out the party indulgence, in more ways than the spiritual.) It feels pretty good, though. I should start walking to and from work more often.
