insomnia brings on the life story
it's been quite a while since i filled out a survey, and what better time than an ungodly hour of the morning for such activity?
1: Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, find line 4. Write down what it says:
him while I’m standing up there?” So I had to pick a smaller
2: Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you touch first?
my overflowing suitcase that looks remarkably like ashley’s
3: What is the last thing you watched on TV?:
CNN
4: WITHOUT LOOKING, guess what the time is:
game time
5: Now look at the clock, what is the actual time?:
i don’t need to look
6: With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?:
the wind in the willows
7: When did you last step outside? what were you doing?:
a couple of hours ago…coming home from the train station from the city
8: Before you came to this website, what did you look at?:
my wrist, but there wasn’t a watch
9: What are you wearing?:
flannel pants, t-shirt
10: Did you dream last night?
yeah, i dreamt that i drove the magic schoolbus, nah, i don’t remember, that’d be cool though
11: When did you last laugh?
a second ago at something one of you guys wrote in your lj
12: What is on the walls of the room you are in?:
eight beautiful windows made in the 1930’s, gorgeous woodwork, lots of books, some artwork
13: What do you really wish you could be good at but most likely never will be?:
whittling. i want to be that old fogie, sitting on the front porch in a rocking chair, carving away at hunks of wood all the time, always producing amazingly intricate pieces in spite of my arthritis and bad vision. oh well.
14: What countries do you really want to visit?:
Italy and New Zealand. scenery from under the tuscan sun and lord of the rings has captured my heart.
15: If your house were burning down, what would you salvage in those frantic seconds? (family, pets, and really heavy stuff don’t apply):
my grandpa’s books
16: If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy first?:
many classy birthday presents for everyone so i won’t have to buy them for several years. that or a meal and a song at waffle house.

I love ovaltine.

today was another great day. went into the city again. did more shopping. got a free jacket. my brother's team won the softball game and the fact that it was in central park at sunset was just awesome. had my first white castle experience, i recommend it highly. sang good songs and acted out scenes from dumb and dumber with my brother all evening. grand times.
how very cool it would be to live in the city, to know it well. to be able to take a lunch break with food from a different non-fast food restaurant each day, eating in a park, watching the interesting people carry on their lives right in front of you, play chess with strangers every afternoon, have access to such a rich library, have public transportation. i think i would love it for a while.
i can feel things coming back. almost like your sense of taste a few days after eating too much big red gum or hot chocolate, but not like blood rushing back to sleeping limbs. not everything dead coming back to life hurts. this is nothing but good.
