It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My sister sent me an email from my mother's new email address which is a shortening of her middle name, plus her maiden name. I mean, not just the email address, but the name expanded. This is why Google+ is bogus. Because that's totally my mother, as is her first name + married surname. They both equally identify her to me.

My thumb is still fucked up. Weirdness.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Zen, I think that you need to own your hurt. You are saying that it wasn't a big deal, and maybe it wasn't, but it's bothering you, and you need to acknowledge it and think through it. At least, that's what helps me.

Alas, thinking through it has only made me more hurt and angry. I see no solution.

It's 2:30am, I'm drunk, and I'm going to bed.

Alert the media.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Thanks, meara! I was asking about it in Tech. I've bookmarked the article.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They (I think it's the power company?) are doing work on my street. It started at 7:30 this morning, just like the last two mornings. But today is Saturday! So I dozed in bed for a long time, getting woken up and having crazy dreams. I wish I had just slept a little longer and gotten up. Annoying!

Not that I have more than a couple of hours' worth of stuff to get done today.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I had to take CJ across town so he can work a parade this morning. Now I'm home, surfing the internet and sewing on a patch on his spare uniform. I would rather crawl back under the covers and sleeeeeeeeep.

Plans for the day - do nails, karate group class, clean house, arts & crafts fair. Tomorrow is a massage and then go to the ARP car wash. And do the cleaning I didn't get done today.

OK, at least they waited on the sustained drilling until 10. Noisy!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I have a personal trainer session and then I have to go into the office for several hours today. Tomorrow is errand and cleaning day.

Because books.

I'm having lunch with my mom today. So far that's the extent of my plans. We cleaned all day yesterday, so that's done.

A movie tonight could be an idea.
