Jump
You would all be so totally proud of me.
I jumped way outside my comfort zone today, and maybe made some new friends.
Today, obviously, is Thursday, which is my day off. I spent most of it reading, because I have this addiction that demands to be fed. The book was going along really well, which was why I couldn't put it down. But the ending really, really pissed me off. Like, I was stomping around my apartment yelling (well, not yelling, because that would just be inflicting my weirdness onto others), but definitely lambasting the author for making the ending so bloody frustrating and just...
Near Death Experiences
You'd never know just how boring my life usually is by the strange events that have occurred over the last week.
I have been nearly crushed underneath a jack-knifing semi truck loaded with road construction debris that tipped over right in front of me on my way to work. If I had been a few seconds faster getting out the door, I would have been too close to that wildly skidding trailer to slow down and get out of the way. Literally, it was that close. Seconds. 15, at the most. That was Tuesday.
My Dad is going in for out-patient surgery tomorrow to have some roto-rooter type surgery to fix a...
Unexpected
So, I have myself a supremely clean apartment, down to a scrubbed kitchen floor, tub, toilet, dishes, clean sheets, (and we all know how much I adore Clean Sheet Day) vaccumed carpet, emptied the vaccuum of all dust and debris (eeewwww), trash & recycling removed, dinner made, and laundry put away.
I decided to reward myself with a chilled glass of white zinfandel (mmmmm....) and just chill out. I spent all day listening to a book on tape called "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night." It was written for kids or teenagers, but I found it fascinating. The hero is a 15 year old...
More Fun Than a Bus
I gave my friend Claudia a ride home from work tonight, which I love doing even though she lives in St. Paul and driving her home takes me miles and miles out of my way.
Claudia is special. She's a 50 year old black woman from Chicago who speaks her mind like no one else I know, who has issues and anxieties, big joys and deep lows, who spent 20 years of her life as a drug addict (addicted to what I don't know, and I won't ask.) But she lives her life so loudly that she is the only person I know who isn't afraid of me when I get loud. It only takes 20 minutes to get her home from work, but...
