Uncaring of the labors of man

The towering waves tear souls and sails

Such fury has the mind awakened.

Rough seas meant yesterday that I got to surprise The Bean at school by picking her up at noon and then taking her for a special one on one day.

We went bowling and then to Friendlies for ice cream and then downtown to get a special surprise for Snoop Mad.  Needless to say by the end of the day she was wiped out.
