2:18

Now what could Tobi, oh Tobi oops that's me, what could I ever mean by that title?
2:18?
How odd; nothing else.
Could it be a bible verse?

“A reading from the Book of Genesis 2:18-24
The Lord G-d said: “It is not good for the man to be alone.
I will make a suitable partner for him.”
So the Lord G-d formed out of the ground
various wild animals and various birds of the air,
and he brought them to the man to see what he would call them;
whatever the man called each of them would be its name.
The man gave names to all the cattle,
all the birds of the air, and all wild animals;
but none proved to be the suitable partner for the man.
So the Lord G-d cast a deep sleep on the man,
and while he was asleep,
he took out one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh.
The Lord G-d then built up into a woman the rib
that he had taken from the man.
When he brought her to the man, the man said:
“This one, at last, is bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;
This one shall be called ‘woman,’
for out of ‘her man’ this one has been taken.”
That is why a man leaves his father and mother
and clings to his wife,
and the two of them become one body.
The word of the Lord.”
Nope, not that, but maybe?

Could it be referring to the score of a baseball game, tis the season and all?
I do believe two high schools in central Jersey had that score once or twice,… but I don’t think that, that is it…?

2:18, could it be a date?
February 18th , but of what year and is it in the future or in the past, baffling; another wonderment.

Now 2:18 could also be a number of a flight or bus or train schedule?
Could be, but not this time…

Gosh that is so right, it could be a time, but A.M. or P.M.?

Do you give up?
Are you sure you don’t want to give it the old college try?
Logic and simplistic is the most reasonable idea to be the answer, hmm?

Beating around the bush, now what does that mean, really?
Any-who, this time it does refer to 2:18 A.M. and that is when I arose this morning and have not been back to sleep since.
CRAZY!

Yes, I do think so too…but some facts are just that.
But let’s get one thing absolutely straight and that is the fact that I awoke at such an early hour with no reason for a job or child or other person’s needs does not make me crazy but the happening is that crazy part and the fact that I did not even try to go back to sleep is crazy(on me, perhaps), maybe?

Okay, now that ridiculous way of explaining the actual occurrence of my night… I will give a slight simple detail of why, not that I have to, but it is a very good reason…
Pain!
My eyes were burning and the salve didn’t seem to help and my sight was going in and out, and so I grabbed a cup of java and sat at this techno marvel and turned it on and until the short power surge a little after four P.M. this afternoon shutting it down temporarily, it has been on ever since!

We did go out today though, to the annual Christmas in July bazaar at the Cultural Center and we came home with some produce from the Farmer’s Market stand outside, off to the side of the building, fresh and free two jalapeños thrown in, two large cucumbers and four sweet potatoes with a total cost of just, $2, and many ideas for our own crafts, ha.

And you know something?
My eyes are not too bad right now and I am not even that tired, in spite of wearing my cooling vest with temps in the high eighties to low nineties but the contrast of the air to heat ratio did set off my spasms as we returned to our car…big ouches in feet and back!

And so I took my evening thirty milligram dose of Baclofen, my prescribed anti-spasmodic, early… I take 70MG. total for the day, 2, 3,2.

All in all I am not too bad right this minute… since I do love to sit and write, it's so relaxing and when I do write it is so magical due to the wildest of all things… I never know what I will write until I am sitting right here, CRAZY?
I suppose.

On that wee bit lighter close, allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all your blessings and share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
