more randomness
I'm home tonight instead of out and about as usual, but I'm finally beginning to feel better. The moon has been hard on me today, but she has been less forgiving in the past. I remember the first month of my big, fancy internship at USA Today, I was so sick on my cycle's first day I had to go to the infirmary and then tell on of my supervisors why I couldn't hold my head up at my desk or eat anything during my lunch break. (I picked the one supervisor who I knew just had a baby, so I figured she would be the most understanding...I am sly like a fox.) But I had a quiet evening good for recouperating. I cooked a nice little dinner of spaghetti squash and spiced, sauteed vegetables and had a glass of wine (for my stomach of course) while I read "Weird Pennsylvania." I had forgotten there were so many strange tourist traps along Route 30. I want to find the house shaped like a boot!
Elections are tomorrow. I don't have to be in to work until 8 p.m. and probably won't be out until about 3 a.m. like last year. The utterly evil campaigns going on in these little towns is probably what gave me my first grey hair that I found a few weeks ago (It seemed so momentous to me though that I plucked it and taped it to a Post-It and included all the vital statistics of time, age, atmospheric pressure, etc^_^). Election night. It makes me think of the Monty Python episode of a tv newsroom as the talking heads awaited the results. Hehe, it's startlingly accurate. I just wish I didn't have to write about the sub-humans... give someone a little bit of power and see what they do with it? bah.
Yesterday was so beautiful outside, just a wealth and range of weather. A warm windy fall day complete with orange and gold leaves whipped into the air, then hard, cold rain, autumn leaves against a dark, thick sky. Sometimes the fullness is so overwhelming, I have to close my eyes and simply listen and breathe it all in.
