the babies allow for hours of daydreaming and thinking of everything i can learn, do, learn, buy, do, ignore, etc.in that order. i have a full set of flash cards that i made for myself about the 38 flower essences that Dr. Bach worked with and made public during his lifetime. Someday really soon i am intending to buy the entire set than i can carry it around making tincture bottles for anyone that i can pounce on.
i am starved for adult conversation, in that way where i do not really miss it that much, but i am increasingly more rusty with social norms the more i am caved up with 2 infants doing baby talk all day. so, in effect, my internal monolouge is taking place of more age appropriate interaction. in this instance it is refreshing that i enjoy my own company.
What accumulates in my pockets has taken to interest me more and more. It is said that little boys have lots of trinkets building up, but i think that everyone ends up with an assortment of oddities. The other day i had a yellow rose bud, a pacifier, 4 crumpled dollars & a pile of change, my monthly bus pass, 4 condoms, Lindt dark chocolate truffle wrappers, house keys & cell phone, my Burts Bees chapstick (pacifier for the grown-up), some lint and a dirty tissue. These things sum up my entire life. and i need a better hand to purse organizing system or my pockets might explode.
in other matters, i have a paid week off next week. I tried for 3 weeks in a row to get my fine ass to austin, a failure on all fronts, i will go there next post my holyday extravaganza with my family. For now I am going to Portland for 3 days and than i will be here avoiding the thanksgiving shopping frenzy, but craving the underwear sales, and becoming a better person for it!? my boyfriend, my raison d'etre, will be on the east coast. so i will be bored to tears and sad beyond all human understanding. what will i possibly do as a women with no man and no shopping? maybe i should diet... but on a more serious note i have had package piles building up for about 2 months and for sure they are going to be mailed out next week. i love time off. and paid.
my next paid week off i am ascending to magical wintery worcester. Im buying my ticket on saturday, and aiming to be there from the 22nd til the 30th. new years 2006 SF or quit.
