feeling beat up
It's 3:30 on Memorial day weekend, and I'm drained. Sunday we tell the kids. First half of the weekend will the tension leading up to that, and the rest of the weekend will be dealing with the fallout ( Read more... ) -
noontime
About a year ago, when I was still trying to figure out what to do about my marriage, I used to go through these stretches where by noon I was so anxious and stressed that I all I could was to walk down to Chick-Fil-A, by lunch, and sit a table by the window. I'd get out my iPod, put on George Winston, get out my journal, and write.

too many pots on the stove
Right now I feel as if I have too many unfinished or on-going things around. It's as if I had a huge stovetop full of pots, all about to boil ( Read more... ) -

Ohio is a very long way
Went to pick up oldest son this past weekend from his first year at college.
Oberlin is a very long way from Atlanta. 700 miles each way. I left Sat morning at 6:15am, and still didn't get up to Oberlin until 7:30.
Driving both up and back was uneventful. Sunday was much better, both because we shared the driving (and I napped when not driving) and ( Read more... ) -
a place to put my stuff
Today I take over my apartment. I'm not moving in for about two weeks, but I had to take it when they were ready to lease it in order to secure the unit. So around 4pm I'll go over, get my keys and my garage door controller, and see where I'll be living for at least the next year. I do have one thing to put in my new place - I bought a phone.

very full up this morning
I spent quite a while on the phone with B this morning. She had put together one of those long quizes (the kind that ask things like "What food do you like to cook" right next to "What's the kinkest thing you've ever done in the bedroom."), and answered it in her MySpace. Some of her answers got at her insecurities, and that got at my ( Read more... ) -

bad diet
I forgot my wallet today, so I didn't have enough money for a real lunch. I did have my change purse, with all of $2.
So I had a bag of Fritos (1.07) and two cokes (.25 each - we get a break on soda in our machines.) Bleeh .. not a great lunch. I didn't feel great when I got home - I wonder why?
