Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger

A new week. A chance to be more positive & to show those around me how much I care.

I can really wind myself up & get too overwhelmed. Last week was a doozy, but it ended with a garden party for my condo. We dug up some ugly grass & planted lavender & rosemary & put some fencing up. How many chances do adult, urban dwellers get to play in the dirt?

Not enough in my opinion.

I'm going to see PJ Harvey tomorrow evening with a lovely lady that lives in my building. I'm looking forward to seeing her live because she's always brought out so much emotion in me. It will be magical.

This world does not make sense

A friend I went to college with was hit & killed by a drunk driver in Tulsa. He was a dedicated cyclist & all-around great guy.

I went to high school with his brother & have known the two of them for years.

Just sad & angry.

There was good news today that made me smile. My friends Lacy & Jonathan are expecting.

We are fascinated and frustrated by this world so much of the time.
