Is digressing like a ... tree

It's 4:44 PM.  It could have been 4:44 AM because I had been awake really early this morning.  Anyway, that was not where I wanted to go with this blog.

I had finished work about 30 minutes ago.  The day went quite well because I spent lots of time writing up a Use Case document.  Very meaty stuff for those of you who are Business Analysts.  Let me tell you about Use Cases...

I'm sorry... back to the blog.

I had decided to take a shower after my work because it was garbage day today, and after putting the garbage on the road, and then having a coffee, banana, and a tiny glazed cinnamon roll, I needed to really get to work.  I new I needed to work on that Use Case document...

Anyway, did you ever really realize that you can't read books while in the shower.  And so that means you really are supposed to think.  So I did.  I suppose one could sing, but that requires thinking if you want to get the words right.  Sometimes, I admit, I will sing, but then I make up the words if I don't remember them.  I sing "Far and near the fields are teeming..." sometimes.

But I digress...

I thought about time and how when I was younger and I visited the homes of my friends, and how I thought their parents were older.  Quite a bit older.  And then I ran the numbers and thought that they couldn't have been over 40. So then I thought deeper.  Why is it that I thought they were older, when now I realize they weren't.  What changed?  And I thought to myself that that is getting pretty deep for shower thinking. So I quit and jumped out of the shower.

Digressing.  It's a most interesting thing.  Because it opens up a whole new bunch of ideas and branches to climb on to.  And when one branch is done, well... you just move to another.

Did I ever tell you about....
