If it wasn't for the third time that a secondary first was rescinded to the zero count, the first second would have thirded a fourth, fifth and sixth.

If all of the movies that I went to see in cinema during the year 2022, 2021 and 2020 were counted and then averaged out to get an average number of movies I've seen in cinema per year during that three year span it would come to a number that is likely in the subset of numbers that are defined as being real numbers.

A tea cup saucer, a non-rewound cassette tape and 450g of will power walked into a bar.

How is will power measured?

I read this article that indicated that past studies of will power show that we have a set amount that decreases during the day and so the will power to avoid that chocolate bar at night is much lower than in the morning. The article went on to say that some people have developed an infinite will power mindset (what they referred to as a non-limited view of will power) and that those people with that mindset have figured out that the more will power you develop and use, the more will power you end up with.

Moving sideways to pass through a crowded room is likely one method to avoid stamping on the feet of a septuagenarian who is meandering on her way to locating the nearest tea shop. Presuming I ever become a septuagenarian I hope to be able to be the one moving sideways and not the one meandering.

I saw 14 and 1/3 movies per year during the span of years mentioned above.

One third represents me as a person among my siblings, or my my son as one of my children. 14 doesn't mean anything to me at the moment of composing this blog post.

A poly lariat lasso, a straight flush and a stout rinse walked into a bar. You can well expect that the tea cup saucer got together with the stout rinse. How the other four coalesced I will leave to your imagination.

Over the holiday season that just passed, as an infinitesimal part of a brief conversation with my youngest child who is presently 13yo I mentioned that if she read my blog she'd know more about me. She said my blog posts are too long. Later on that same day I was reminded of Deb (RIP) who once frequented my blog and had indicated that the longer the better in terms of my posts.

As I have somewhere between zero and two regular readers of this blog (apart from myself), I figure I can write as short, as long or as inane as I'd like.

During my weekly conversations with another volunteer at my church it was suggested that I look into visiting my brother who lives in Valencia. I have a work blackout of vacation days effective presently and until May 2 and so the plan is to go on Victoria Day weekend.

I'd take TS260, a direct flight from YUL to BCN that arrives in BCN at 13h on Friday May 19. Take the R2N from the airport to Barcelona Sants train station. Exit the train station and wander around Barcelona staying within the vicinity of the train station, then take the Euromed #1161 that leaves Barcelona Sants at 16h10 and arrives in Valencia at 18h57 where I expect my brother and/or his wife would collect me and I'd stay with them Friday, Saturday and Sunday night, have both weekend days to do tourist/local things. On Monday I have a few choices of train to take, but probably I'd take AVE #5071 that leaves Valencia at 7h50 and arrives in Madrid at 9h54. Then I'd have to take either C1 or C10 metro from the train station I arrive in to get to the airport for TS385, a direct flight from MAD back to YUL that departs MAD at 14h25.

Nothing is booked yet.
