The blackberries we picked this morning are buggy. I keep thinking I've washed the bugs off so I eat a berry, only to find more bugs on the remaining berries. Seriously, it's a problem. If I die today, it's probably because I ate too many bugs. (As if there's a number of bugs one can eat before it becomes "too many.")
I swam a half a mile today. It was nice. My eyes burned from the salt water of the pool. After swimming I walked around like a normal person without makeup or fixed hair. I say like a normal person because it was mere imitation, not true being. But at least I did it. "Look at me!" I shouted gleefully to Ali as we walked to our car, "I'm being the person I want to be!" He laughed, and I felt appreciated.
Ali and I came home from our berry picking and swimming and fell fast asleep on the couch. We woke up an hour later flipped the hell out and disoriented. "What did we miss??" Ali asked me, panicked. It took several minutes to realize it was okay to have napped, and okay to still laze around. Good stuff.
I'm feeling retarded today but I don't know why.
Oh yeah, probably it's because my insides are full of bugs. That explains it.
