i was going to write wednesday MORNING things up there on the title line, but i’ve just realized that it’s already past noon. when i’m sick, time has less meaning than usual.
i’ve mostly been sitting here watching all the birds eating outside the window. also squirrels. yesterday one of the squirrels kept bouncing against the window. clearly he wants to come inside. that would be a little too much excitement for me, but just the right amount for mollie.
i haven’t accomplished much today. ok, not one damn thing. i did put more food out for the birds and squirrels. right now there are two female cardinals, make that three female cardinals out there. plus lots of little birds whose names i’d know if i knew any bird names besides the common ones.
anyway, i remembered that my friend gary wrote to me and said that i had the wrong e-mail address for him, but i don’t know where he sent this missive, but i think it was somewhere on facebook. so i went to facebook and got engrossed in reading gary’s list of 25 things. i guess you probably know all about a list of 25 things on facebook because it seems that everybody knows all about facebook except me, and i still am not entirely sure about the point of facebook except for spending lots of time on it. connecting with people, that must be it, but people keep sending me stuff like “here’s a drink for you,” but i never get an actual drink, where’s the drink?
the list of 25 things is this list where you write down 25 things about yourself. facts, goals, stuff like that. gary’s was quite entertaining. i’m not sure if i could think of 25 things about myself. maybe three.
but i don’t know how to write to gary because i don’t know his e-mail address. maybe if you, gary, read this, you could e-mail me and then i could write back.
i’m not as sick as i was. i’ve acknowledged that i had laryngitis the other day, when i couldn’t talk at all. i’m not ready to acknowledge full being sick-ness, and i haven’t gotten the cough that lasts for three months. but i will say i’m tired of being tired and sitting or lying around. mollie thinks it’s a good way to spend life, however. she was quite content that i slept till 9:30 this morning and she could have stayed in bed all day. instead she’s forced to snore on the couch.
WOW, there’s a woodpecker.
it’s pretty entertaining around here, as you can see.
ok then,
wednesday afternoon grace.
p.s. all the valentine’s chocolates are gone, thank god. but i sure wish i had one right now.
