"Let's just get married and become Amish."
Today has entirely thrown me for a loop. Actually, this complete weekend has. And the weekend before that, and the weekend before that. If I was going to even try to explain it, I don't think I could. I love life, though. Everything's been surreal lately, but I feel through my mystified, perhaps half-asleep outlook I'm happier than I was before and can actually live. I'm appreciating things to a different extent - a less desperate one. My anxiety still is haphazard and I still have to take something to calm me down atleast once a week or so. But I know that I can handle it.
Friday, I went to Koltin's sister's (Kristen's) soccer game, but it was so cold we watched only maybe a quarter of it. Instead, we took warm refuge in his car. I found it hilarious that a friend of his sister's father said to him the next morning, "Was that girl you had with you in the car hard of hearing? Y'all were awful close." I love people. After the game, we went to his house to watch the Gem's production of 'The King and I', which I've wanted to see for ages. I watched probably a total of ten minutes of it there, if that says anything at all.
Saturday, my parents, Koltin, and I went into Cleveland. I conclude that there is no seclusion in a book store. Gosh. Every aisle had someone in it or passing by. I swear we tried every one of them. I think the employees were amused.
Today so much - there isn't any other word - crap happened. Nothing directly to me, but close enough to kick me more so into reality. And I'm realizing how much stuff I have to do, and how behind I am in everything. I'm really going to have to do something about it. I just realized, too, that next week may very well be just as packed as this one - so I've no free time whatsoever. There's a choir meeting tomorrow, 'The Color Treasure' Tuesday and then theatre, religious education Wednesday, I know something's scheduled Thursday, and Friday's piano and undoubtedly several other yet to be planned things. Plus, 'See How They Run' is off at the Gem, therefore they're going to block 'A Christmas Story', which means they need a stage manager. Oh dear. That will take away most of my nights. At least I'm living, eh?
