saturday night... is still alright for fighting i guess.
i am so sickened by holiday eating.
it's too much.... i've enjoyed it - of course but the end is in sight and i cannot wait till i'm back to a meal and a half a day.... this week has been out of control with food, add to that my inability to sleep and compound to that a rolling nausea that hits now and again making me most vomitous at odd hours, add to that the excruciating pain of vomiting to my internal incisions from surgery and it feels like i am collapsing.
just a few more days.
as for new years eve, i'm torn... to go out or stay home... i don't know i see the allure of each and am equally attracted.... i guess we'll see.
have a fun sunday and i'll talk to you on monday. tune in for fun with Jaime from BOULDER. he's a peach!!!

it is both saturday and sunday right now.
whenever my regular work schedule is interrupted i have a bout of insomnia (and now i must shoot robin williams) anyhoo i thought today i would nip it in the bud by hitting the rack when i got tired and sleeping the night... no dice went to bed at 8:00 up at 11:00 and here we are 1:35 a.m. and i'm AWAKE.
i had a good day today. i did volunteer work for the RED CROSS at beachwood mall, all we (my students and I) did was man the donations kiosk and ask for $1 donations to their wishes for the world holiday thing... anyhow we did o.k. but i must voice the total disgust i feel towards humanity. we're at BEACHWOOD MALL - many people who shop there seem to have some affluence.... but they were not about to drop a DOLLAR for the red cross.... amazing..... people with fur coats, tons of abercrombie & jcrew bags and their lexus keys out would look directly at us and say "no." our hope was found in the youth believe it or not 90% of our donations came from people under 20 years of age...... nice going youth!!!! i'm proud of you. then on my way out of the mall i stopped in thier little deli shop thing and bought a baby bottle of chardonnay (how are you allowed to buy wine in the mall and drink in the mall??? - love it) anyhoo the drive home was me, the dark evening sky, tail lights for miles, a glass of wine and nick drake on the hi-fi...... The world was, for that drive, a good place to be.
have a restful sunday and we'll talk on monday.
