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...
