What a day can hold...

At some point, I'll probably tell you about last weekend, up at Marty and Kari's. It was fabulous, but stirred in me some things that have left me confused and muddled inside, incapable of writing about it just yet.

Instead, let me tell you what I've weathered today (in no particular order)...

• I have cried no less than 5 times, for a wide variety of reasons. Tears just seem to be my response to everything lately.
• I said goodbye to my best friend for the next three months.
• I ate baked ham and scalloped potatoes with my parents.
• I finished reading one book, and started another.
• I found out that my dog may have to be put down... we won't know for a month or so.
• I took possession of a car for the next three months.
• I drove my friend to the airport.
• I weathered the panic surrounding the 11th hour discovery that her passport was not, in fact, with her plane ticket, but in her home on the other side of the city.
• I took a hot bath.
• I waited for the passport to arrive, while wondering if she was going to miss her flight.
• I battled a severe tension headache into submission with a couple of ibuprofen, some food, and lots of water.
• I wrote a long journal entry, dumping some of my tension into typing with force.
• I held a self-pity party.
• I cleaned, and gave up on cleaning.
• I went shopping and bought books.
• I rented a movie to watch tomorrow afternoon.
• I craved a cup of tea, and then realized that I'm out of the kind I desperately wanted.

And did I mentioned I cried at least 5 times?

Here's to tomorrow being another day. I'm not sure I can survive too many more like today...
