I am procrastinating on finishing my paper...and wondering why I ever thought it would be a good idea to add a certification on top of concentration...I slept til 8:30 this morning, and I didn't feel like getting dressed when I got up. So here I sit in a lacy camisole and cheekies...thinking I really need to lose some weight.
I had a two-cheese salsa burrito for breakfast.
I'm treading the line between "I'm fine" and "Fuck the world, I'm insane."
This morning I'm going to my brother's house. My mom and dad will be there too. My niece started walking this week! So we'll hang out with her a bit. Then my parents are coming to my house (4 blocks away) to see Carmen Sandiego.
I am going to try to get some big pieces of furniture moved to my storage and probably a long walk with Buddy. This has been the hardest weekend yet. ?

Why are you putting things in storage? They won't go straight to your apt or get sold?

doglove -- I don't really know the details of what's going on, but I do want to encourage you somehow. When things get tough for me, this is my mantra: "Don't think. Just do."
There will be plenty of time to think later. Long walks have saved my life more than once.
I just saw a guy at the bus stop in a suit doing pushups on the bench. I had to double take to make sure I wasn't seeing things.
Probably pumping himself up to look bigger for an interview...or maybe pushups help settle him down. I used to climb trees when I was nervous. Now that I'm in my thirties, though, I don't really get away with that.
My H just expressed his doubt that I would get my paper done before midnight. (To be fair to him, I have a very bad habit of procrastinating and turning things in at the last minute, so he's not outside of his boundary to express his doubt here.) I'm so going to prove him wrong.

I am thinking he was off to church since the woman next to him, sitting on the bench, was dressed up too. ;D

Doglove, it will get easier swim deeps thoughts are a very eloquent way to say what I wanted to say.
I just finished painting my nails. Hot pink on my toes and a gold glitter french manicure on my hands.
I am going to brunch at 1, the party last night was amazing. We ended up going out dancing. Between yoga, a bike ride and dancing until 2am my thighs burn. It was so much fun.
Lastly my neighbor made a vanilla/chocolate tres leches birthday cake with chocolate covered strawberries. I want another slice.

It's all up from here. Hang in there.
My apartment isn't available for three more weeks so I need to store my crap in between moving out of the house and moving into the apt. Pain in the ass moving twice.
I hope you're walking with Buddy right now... I wrote something like this a few years ago, and I thought maybe it might be good to share here. Please: Feel free to tell me to fuck off.
Look at that leaf. Do you see that leaf? It's the perfect shade of summer green. The edges are burned and wilted from the summer heat, but the heart is green. The veins are vibrant yellow. Do you see that leaf? And even if it were to fall, right now, in this moment of sublime August, it will fall with the grace of a thousand vibrant suns, full of the heat of summer, carried by the breath of the universe.
If you weren't there to see it, it would have fallen in silence. Unnoticed. Quietly fulfilling its destiny. Content to nestle close to the ground and decay into nurturing earth.
But you were there to see it. The poetry of the fall. And it brings the sun to you just as it brings the sun to the earth.
SwimDeep that really is beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
doglove I thought of you at the Beatles tribute concert last night. I'm going to try uploading video to FB later today. The one that stuck with me for you was "I get by with a little help from my friends [...] I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends." All of us here and everyone there are your friends and we will keep helping you. Love you lady!
Thank you so much for sharing that, SwimDeep! It's beautiful.
(((doglove))) I hope the time with Buddy helped. I don't know if there's anything I can do for you (besides listen) but if there's anything else I could do to make this time easier for you, please let me know. I've been thinking of you.
Today is kind of a low-key day, which is good, because I'm feeling pretty tired. I've just been doing laundry and other housework, but I'm taking a break for now and sitting down with a drink.

hugs, DL.
gault, The West Wing is probably my most favorite show of all time. I hope you like it!
I went to yoga this morning, then we went to lunch with my brother and his wife. Went grocery shopping, did laundry, made my lunches for the week, and now I'm watching House.
Match guy I was excited about has read the message I sent and been online since, but hasn't reached or to me on the site or via phone/text. He "liked" my profile when it showed up in his daily matches yesterday, according to the email match sent. I'm starting to be wary of this guy instead because WTF. Seems like game playing.
