leaving in the morning.
been sick all day- make's packing up really hard. Got some fun chores done, though- exchanged 5 books I didn't want for two I do and four dollars. I really, really like going into stores, giving them goods, and getting money. Got to do that four different places today. Yay. Also, my car has been vacuumed for the first time in a long, long time! Rexl is ready to be my home again.
wisdom learned over the last 72 hours:
- don't throw a party the same night as another party
- just because I don't Feel sick anymore doesn't mean that it won't come back if I stay up till 7:30 in the morning
- this is the most important one: get rid of my ego. just be. just have fun with the people in my life. I feel very zen at the moment. I know it's kind of trite. And it's something I've been working with for a while. Just very clear right now- my ego hurts my relationships
Other than all the processing that's been going on, I had a very fun weekend. Everyone genuinely seemed to have a really good time at my place. I'm happy I was able to provide that for them and I'm happy that friends met one another. I'm also happy that food tastes so yummy. And I'm grateful for my friends.
I really enjoyed waking up Saturday morning at noon with two friends right there. Going downstairs and seeing a bunch more, and going on a picnic with so much yumminess.
I got better at a bunch of things too, like climbing (a pyramid that was in a cemetary), picture taking, and fire rope dart spinning. Lit up my dart for the third time. I'm finally starting to feel like I'm not going to die every time I spin fire. This is helpful to learning how to do it well.
Tonight my friend Rubin took me to this really pretty view of Oakland/Berkeley and the bridges and San Francisco. Wow. It was up in a woodsy, trail-filled place so it was such an amazing juxtaposition of nature and society. Beautiful together. The beauty of each heightened by the other.
The hanky I'm blowing my nose into just came out of the dryer. It's very warm and soft.
Time for sleep. So I can load up my car tomorrow morning. So many people I wanted to talk to today.
I'll be back next weekend. Sometime evening Friday.
