I looked for shooting stars last night but didn’t see a one. Then the spinning of the afternoon crescendo’d but fell away when the clock struck midnight – later, asleep, the soul fairies entered my dreams and took my soul – morning came with the emptiness – I thought about sending a cry for help – I lay there motionless until Arlene forced me to take her down to pee. Then those damn fairies were…
I’d like to say that I am jumping up and down over getting the LaLa but as N says – it’s a mess. He estimates $200K + to finish – how could this job have been so underestimated? So now just trying to figure it all out and it doesn’t look pretty. I spoke with J this morning about how to proceed with work in the meantime – the cafe for internet and scheduled land…
It’s been a little over a month since N and I returned from Charleston and I was at dinner tonight and the Snake said it’s been over a month and it seems like longer cause all these things have happened with you, but N has been pretty constant = he is home now and working on his marriage and having things both ways. I was telling S about the whole dinner conversation and she said…
The past couple of days have been rather good despite all the uncertainty that still exists in our lives. S came by this morning and it was mutually decided that I will keep the LaLa house and that probably makes the most sense. We came to an amicable split and now we just need to implement it. All the sadness from the earlier days is still hovering around us but unfortunately we can provide each…
Shine was a big help this morning in helping S and I to assess how to split our assets and what to do about LaLa. It could be that I keep LaLa and S and I are in it as partners that he will benefit from on down the road. Who knows? I found another area of the city that has charmed me – full of cute boys I might add – and musicians and…
Recurrent dreams of V that are baffling. She is a young girl – maybe 18 – her hair is long and straight – have never seen it this way – and she is smiling and happy. It is a comforting dream but I always wake with the same feeling of loss – perhaps this that I have put way back in my mind is coming to the surface as I deal with the loss of…
What’s great about my company is we are a large family – it’s always a love fest on these MLK trips. S and I went early for this one and got the festivities started with M, K and D – all wives of traders who always go early – all women I adore – and we danced the night away. The next morning, with the sound of the ocean lulling me into the sunlight I…
A very good session with E this evening – a “to do†list – big smile – this is close to my heart – I love to do lists! Meanwhile, left there and ran home to change for a community meeting for Mid City at the Parkway – the place was packed – the bartender was the same human phobe who bartended for N and the Snake’s non wedding (hate that guy) – the whole…
Ducks are getting in a row – clothes laid out for Bahamas – wish fulfillment took 11 hours but was worth it – everything that wasn’t said finally got said through electronic missives yet again – modern world – and so here we are. It’s a rainy day in New Orleans but not the good old soaking rain we are wont to get but rather the Seattle drizzle that makes everyone seem urban and introspective…
Sitting out in the courtyard by a tree that says Branche Du Bois – people are dining outside – the weather is perfect – jazz playing on speakers somewhere up in the eaves – laughter – clinks of silverware and glasses – good work out under my belt – sometimes the day can come around like G said – the day is an organism – alive and unruly – and it does come around –…
