    I don't develop the same kinds of feelings towards the players anymore when they only play for Duke for one year.

    But Duke basketball is not why I'm discouraged.

    Any play projects on the horizon?

    Perhaps it's just a mid-life crisis.

    I am playing Friar Laurence in a production of Romeo&Juliet. We open at the end of March.

    I wonder if twitter would be less of a cesspool if they had the same "wait one minute between tweets" rule that we use around here.

    Sounds exciting! I wish I could act.

    A cesspool is just a vessel, waiting a minute would only slow the parade of turds flowing into it, not fill it up any less.

    I find a few things help when I am in a discouragement funk.

    I don't remember him either, not really. I mean, if you asked me, out of the blue, who Alf Landon was, I might have been able to come up with former Presidential candidate. Maybe. But when you say "Is Alf Landon running again?", I know who you're talking about.

    So, I googled him for you.

    He lived to be 100. He was governor of Kansas in the 30s. Former Senator from Kansas Nancy Kassebaum is his daughter.

    Foremost, the arts. Whether it is music, visual arts, a play, a movie, or a book, getting in touch with the arts reminds me of the vast creative spirit of mankind. Music and a trip to the art gallery usually helps reset my moorings.

    Good advice. I do have rehearsal on Sunday. Friar Laurence is a great part, not tiny but not too big either. Consequently, I don't have to be at every rehearsal. But, it might not be such a bad thing to be at rehearsal all the time. Oh well.

    I think we just need one more post to get back to more than 900 ahead of the beer drinkers.

    Hobbies are another, they set new purpose and get me out of a rut.

    I also find that exercise, especially walking, helps me. A good podcast or music, a long walk, and I’m good. (harder right now in Boston than Georgia, I know. But spring is coming. . . .)

    All helpful suggestions. I went running last night and did a little yoga today. I have a 5k race coming on Saturday.
