i should really insist on things more often.

i insisted that today be a better day, and it was.

it was a very goot day, in fact.

worked, done by 1pm, changed clothes, went to the gym (is it terribly wrong, you think, to join a gym at a church with no intention of attending said church and listening to zeppelin on the ipod instead of their piped in christian music and having naughty thoughts while running? will i burn in that really hot part of hell for this???), stopped in starbucks for a latte, picked up the baby girl...and that's when it went wrong.

it seems that a boy told her that her boyfriend (ugh) liked another girl. she was near to tears. wasn't it just tuesday he asked her to go to the dance with him? i immediately saw myself beating him up in the schoolyard tomorrow morning. it was a lovely picture.

she hadn't gotten the whole story, and the BF called her tonight after talking to a different friend and everything is cool and she's all happy again and...whatta roller coaster ride...oy. me head is a'spinnin...

so it got better again.

made dinner, went to the grocery, put the groceries away, had an email from a very sweet friend i'd been hoping to hear from, did a bit of writing - actually quite a bit for me - and now i'm here and i'm thinking of going off to bed, to dream perhaps, a better dream than the one i had last night.

g'night folks. sweet dreams.
