balance

The men who are working on construction of the new Epcor building behind my office tower are working in a cloud. Thick mist. It must be strange... annoyingly damp. But I think they probably prefer that to driving-down-rain.

Which, of course, reminds me of working the top of the SuperZip in sideways rain that blows right into the shelter. Which reminds me of working the Burma Zip in a blizzard last October, pulling up pulleys with my eyes closed because snow flurries were being plastered into my face.

Which in a small way makes me glad to be inside an office during inclement weather. But in another way, it kind of made me feel outdoorsy and cool, which is not something I feel very often.

It would be great if I could strike some sort of balance.
