1. I got a lovely surprise in the mail from this lovely woman, who is a very special friend to me. We go way back in blog years. :-) She sent me a birthday card and I am to open it on Saturday. It will be a pleasure to see her handwriting. (And Kahless, the stamp made me laugh my ass off! So great to know that someone I love gets it! I love you, K.)
2. The therapist is back from vacation and he did not quit when he checked his email. I guess he survived his little stint at the Y.
3. I did a weird thing Tuesday night. I wrote (fiction). Anyone who has been reading me for long enough knows that this can cause a problem for me. I've decided to go for it anyway. I put 'finish the current novel' on my New Year To-Do List. I think that was back in February (because I have New Year's Day whenever the hell I feel like it). Anyway, this has been rattling a few chains inside my head, but I am armed with a mental shotgun and gawd help the critical parental types if they keep flapping their lying jaws. Lying sacks of shit. I'll blast their guts all over the walls and make gory paintings like the cave woman I really am. It's the others I'm worried about now. The scared parts that don't want me to write because they are afraid. I'm not sure what to do about them yet.
4. I've been trying to get caught up on a few things around here, but that's a whole other blog post.
5. I've been drinking beers and it's about that time. I really need to get cleaned up and go to bed. As usual, I procrastinate.

Happy Early Birthday!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad, but not surprised, that your T didn't "quit". You remind me of myself so much and my DT seems committed even tho I put her through hell (not her fault -it's my nature)...your T does love "all" of you...and my gut tells me he will not give up on you.
I've always wanted to write...I hope the fiction writing wasn't a problem for you Tues night.
I've been drinking too...frankly, I don't see the difference between that and all the 'mind-numbing' prescription drugs...cept you don't have to have a docs signature to buy beer.
Get some rest.... Grace
Happy birthday to you!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to you!
Happy Birthday, dear Lynn,
Happy birthday to you!
(You'll have to imagine the singing part). At our house, to get the full effect, you have to sing the last line off-key (deliberately), and you have to say "beep!" in between each of the previous ones..... (Did I mention we're a little strange?) :)
Anyway, I hope you have a very happy birthday!!
And, good luck with the writing. I would bet that you are stronger now than you were the last time you dipped your toes into the fiction writing pond, and I think you will do well.
Happy Birthday!!
ReplyDeleteI read your comment over at Blooming Lotus... I had an exorcism performed on me too!! Weird!!
Didn't help me a bit!!
(Its funny in hindsight... but TERRIFYING in the moment.)
