Emotions Just read my horoscope for today... "The logic of emotions is nonlinear and unilateral." Yes.. I love to love. No More Bichette In Blue Well, it wasn't to be... Finding he wouldn't be an every day player, and knowing his heart wouldn't be in being just a pinch-hitter, Dante Bichette, 38, just announced his retirement. I knew I liked this guy.. In announcing, Dante described a difficult junture for him personally: "To be honest with you, I broke down a bit. I prayed to Jesus to make me a strong man, husband and father.... The family was calling me." Friday, March 22, 2002
It Just Stopped Wow, the wind stopped. For days the wind has blown, steady every minute.. From gusty to just plain steady by this morning. I went for apples and things, and there was that wind blowing me. I got home, still that wind... not more than an hour ago. So, I step away from this PC to go out for a minute... What!? It's stopped, completely. Not died down to a breeze. I looked up at the trees, some high branches, surely they'd still be rustling a little. No. It's completely still out there, quite pleasant with high clouds and sunshine. Wow... It just stopped, as if someone had turned "off" the switch. When You Need Them It's so good to have someone to talk to, when you really, really need to. Sometimes, one might choose to not really drag the other person down with one's own problems... Still, to know you could, to know you could have if you wanted to, talk with someone at the very time you really *need* to.. That's a good feeling. Warm Liquid Coffee Ice Cream  Weird, the taste changes you can feel in such a short time... I have myself eating just a couple things for now, just a transitional diet, of almost entirely fruit. So, my taste buds are only getting a thing or two to taste. This morning, I made myself some coffee, adding some milk as usual... I haven't been that much in the mood for coffee the last couple days though, so it just sat there a while. I went to take a drink, finally. It tasted like warm liquid coffee ice cream! Slight Let Up I was just reading Laura's anti-linear brain, and she wrote something in today's timeline which I was sure feeling especially for a couple nights.. To quote her, "Wind is so disturbing." I think it was Tuesday night, it just rattled everything outside. I imagined things being uprooted out there... Then Wednesday night again, howling, strong constant, then gusty mean winds kept me up. Driving to work yesterday morning, wondering how I was going to fare on two or three hours of sleep (I fared surprisingly well) all over the roads were twigs and little branches from the evergreens alongside.. Talking with others at work, I wasn't the only sleepless in Portland that night.. Thank God, last night, we had a slight let up, and I slept almost through... It's still windy and cold enough to make me glad pull my hood over my head.. It's much better here now, though. I can take it! :-) Alive! I feel good today! If I wasn't me, feeling this, I wouldn't believe it... It's about time. My annual winter hibernation was longer and deeper than usual... I feel good now, though! Two nights and one day into a change of diet, and a bit more exercise, and wow... It's amazing. You'd think I'd do this all the time.. That would get boring though. Then I wouldn't have the experience of coming back to life.. It's funny, people look at you differently when you feel sparkly... My mind is nimble, mmm, I like that feeling. Thursday, March 21, 2002
Molding Cheese That was pretty fun really. Nice little outing.. I went to the kids Science Fair.. Full of experiments like what sort of cheese gets moldy the quickest? None of them did! They just got hard. Or, what melts faster, frozen milk, or regular ice? Ha... (Oh oh, there's a special about James Dean on our local public broadcasting station tonight... with home movies and writings..) Paradoxical Actually I'm quite reclusive, naturally. I'm happy that way! The thing is, sometimes, I am not so great about totally respecting another's wish for time to oneself... Hmm, it's kind of paradoxical. I sure hope this constant blustery wind calms by tonight... New And Improved Oh Lord.. When I think about this, all I can think of is The Ramones, "Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment!" It's actually gaining popularity again... I was just told of someone who is getting it soon.. Yes, shocked! To be all better! Help! I wish people would ask me before they get it... I mean, if they know me. I'd say, "Noooooooooooooo!" Only An Apple I can't sleep tonight. I only had an apple for dinner, and when I eat that light, this happens fairly often.. I have a feeling that's not it though.. Oh it's time. I need lots of work... I know how to do this.... I want her forever. Not a little while or a long while. Do I want too much?
