I think this year is going to be a year to simply survive, to hold on until its over and I'm on the other side. I have a constant feeling like that first speedy rush of an acid trip, when thoughts become wildly divergent, the stream of consciousness turns into class 5 rapids, and chaos whispers and jabbers around the edges of the conscious mind.

Oh, wow... what beautiful thoughts. I'm glad you're doing relatively well, aside from the loss of the lizard (the one named Havoc?) and the truck trouble. I don’t know how I’d avoid going insane working that much… at one job.
I had a great time in Italy. I feel so enriched :) ha ha. I'm still looking into school options, but haven't applied anywhere yet. Need to take the Subject GRE now. Didn't do too well on the General test :( I need to leave my job soon. I’m in a position where I really don’t have anything to lose but paid vacation, health insurance, and stagnant unhappiness. Weather I end up doing the same work somewhere else or working at Mellow Mushroom, I don’t really care… I know it’s horrible, but I’m just no concerned with getting out on my own anymore. Why can’t I be myself and make a living too?
I’m glad you’re still dancing! I read that the GA Renaissance Festival has belly dancers this year. Do you ever perform at Café Istanbul anymore? I’d really like to go back there sometime soon…

I'm glad you had a great time in Italy. Where did you go while you were over there? I've never been to Italy, but I've always wanted to go. Right now I haven't been anyplace in so long I'd probably settle for anywhere, though! (Well, I went to California this month, but it was all work, no play. Bleah.) My job is starting to drive me a bit crazy. Oddly, it's less the hours (though I know there will come a time that will make me crazy, too) so much as the constant rapid-fire multi-tasking until my brain turns to mush. It does sound like you're more than ready to quit your job. I'm kind of like you, when it comes time to leave a job, I don't really care where I go. I just know it's time to leave and I do. It always seems to work out for the best. Whimsy has been kind to me (it's common sense that never seems to work for me! Guess I suck at it ( ... )

Wow! I'm sooo envious! I'm glad you had such a good trip to Italy. It's high on the list of places I want to visit. Of course, that list is a mile long! And I want to get to Norway and the Czech Republic first. Yeah, I know, the Czech Republic doesn't usually appear on lists of tourist destinations, but I want to see the town my grandfather's family was from. I have an old postcard from it, and the town square looks so exotic, with a Romanesque-style cathedral with those cool Eastern European onion domes ( ... )
