It’s a shame how weeks and months can slip by without much notice.  For me, days blend together at work; the tasks I did last week will only repeat itself this week.  How can I “carpe diem” when days hardly seem worth “carpe-ing?”  I guess this can be life’s twisted way of showing us what we hold important.  For those few days Ding Ding visited, I cherished every short hour of the day.  At work, I would only wish for 6 pm to come faster….but it was all the contrary for those few days.  Albeit short, thanks for the much needed vacation, Ding. I hope you had as much fun as I did.  =)
