I was zooming along last night with anticipation of our Memorial Day Weekend when, BAM! I have a summer cold. It came out of nowhere and knocked my socks off. I have a lot of work to catch up on and will have to slog through the honking, sneezing, headaches and sore throat. With that in mind and unless the pills I started taking work some magic, I will likely be engaged in a lot of hit 'n run posting. I'm going to bed. :(

Thursday Challenge: Architecture -

"Architecture"

It just hit me - between the eyes - that another one of the problems I've been having is these headaches. The migraines appear to be back and they're decidedly taking a toll on my ability to think clearly, process information and maintain any kind of creative balance that's acceptable. Therefor, tonight's post on the theme of architecture at this week's Thursday Challenge, was a fortunate find for me. As I was walking from the office to my parking lot, camera in hand, I stumbled upon this discarded newspaper and took the shot...now tell me, is this serendipity or what?
