Goals/Gaols

Today's goal is to finish writing up all my lower Manhattan site visits. As I was thinking about my goals in general, my head got the word confused with "gaol." "Ha ha ha," I thought to myself, "isn't it weird that the two words are spelled the same way?" Then I remembered that they weren't spelled the same way, although sometimes goals are like little gaols that trap you, aren't they?

Maybe I need to get out more.

  1. I had a similar moment a few months ago when working on a story for a magazine about online training. I was so brain dead from the story that I acutally laughed for a full 20 minutes when my son said, "Holy Crap!"

    It seemed hysterical at the time, but I later realized that I just needed a drink.
