this morning i was trying to lift amy\u2019s red mixer off the top of her refrigerator. up on top of the refrigerator is not the place that i, personally, would store such an INCREDIBLY HEAVY thing. as i was doing so, there was this little “twang” in my back, with lots of shooting pain. ouch.<\/p>\n
so i stood on a chair in order to better maneuver it, and i thought “ok, this is my great excuse for not working out today.” but then guilt overtook me (as it has a tendency to do), and i worked out anyway, and kept stretching my back, hoping for a little relief. even when i got to the club, i kept saying to myself, ok, if it starts hurting any more, i get to STOP. but it didn\u2019t hurt any more so i kept at it. at least now i feel very virtuous. for the moment, anyway.<\/p>\n
i am in charge of the zoo here at amy and jim\u2019s while they\u2019re (theoretically) having a fabulous time in mexico. it\u2019s only theoretical because as far as i know nobody has heard from them. but looking at the website for the place i don\u2019t see how it\u2019d be possible to not have a good time.<\/p>\n
i have managed to have a bad time before at really beautiful places, but not too often. and never again! <\/p>\n
things here at the zoo are pretty quiet right now. sometimes this can be a bad sign, and can mean that the dogs are eating something they\u2019re not supposed to, like the couch. yesterday i let Nubie and Noodle lounge around on the couch and then i noticed that a corner of a cushion had been torn open and some stuffing was lying about. and there was also the remains of something purple and plastic on the dining room floor, but i couldn\u2019t even figure out what this thing might have been. something delicious, no doubt.<\/p>\n
my friend kate e-mailed me to say that she looked up “catgirls” online, and couldn\u2019t believe the huge number of hits for it there were. maybe about a million. no, less than that. maybe thirty thousand, i don\u2019t know. yeah, it\u2019s big, catgirls. big and very important cinema. significant and meaningful.<\/p>\n
i just want to hang out one day on the weekend. maybe even a couple of days in a row. just hang out and…do nothing. that\u2019s what i want. soon.<\/p>\n
that\u2019s all for now, because i\u2019m making pizza for my family and they\u2019re all coming over in a while and i feel it\u2019s going to be extra-good, but i do feel that i\u2019ll probably write a lot more later because i feel (for a change) that i have lots to day.<\/p>\n
ok, except for this one little thing i have to write now – i was saying to a friend that of course i\u2019m not able to actually make money doing the writing, even though it\u2019s the thing i\u2019m best at, and my friend said “that\u2019s because you\u2019re doing it for FREE on your website.” hmm. that didn\u2019t make me feel so good. she then pointed out that i\u2019m actually PAYING for it, because of the web-hosting fees. hmm. felt even worse.<\/p>\n
but then again, i like doing this, it makes me happy. maybe one day (hopefully before i reach 100) i\u2019ll figure out some way to actually make money, instead of spending it, on writing. but until then, i\u2019m pretty content with this.<\/p>\n
maybe i need to be LESS content. maybe that\u2019s the real problem here. <\/p>\n
does there always have to be a problem?<\/p>\n
a promoter, that\u2019s what i need. sometimes when i talk to my friend Thad he starts talking about how i could do all this stuff, and it always seems really overwhelming. i mean, he has some good ideas, but they also seem like a lot of trouble.<\/p>\n
i have to go now because i believe the dogs are trying to kill each other.<\/p>\n
my major job as house\/dogsitter is to make sure that the dogs STAY ALIVE. and that i don\u2019t burn down the house.<\/p>\n
ok then,<\/p>\n
