Oh that Sarah...wondering about moldy pots and such in my fridge. Even though Taive cleaned it out a little during the wee hours, there are still some scary milk cartons (I am NOT the buyer of said cartons as I do NOT drink milk!) that have not been emptied. I am responsible for some Soy Milk containers that I will deal with soon.
I am a mess, my house is a mess, the sky is a mess...I swear if I don't get to spend some time in the sun soon I will curl up and die.

You know, I received a lot of attention on my birthday which made me very happy. It's weird that I should be bothered by a couple of people ignoring it. I can't help it really, it just hurt my feelings...my brother, a friend....sad for me, I guess

Ha...just read Linn's blog. I guess it is true that part of Riley was hers. She was there when we picked him up and she was there when he was getting used to the place, but, then she moved out...and he IS still part hers! HE seems to know that she 'belongs' to him when she visits.

I just had a nice long chat with Linn. I miss that girl so much! I wish that she and Oscar could live here. It was so good to here the sound of her voice, she can be so soothing. Maybe she should be a therapist.

How sad it will be to end this blog because Tavie ends hers. I will miss it.

I wish that Kitana never had to leave. I miss her.

I forgot to take my happy pills this weekend and ended up sick. Apparently you can not skip two doses of my bit of happiness without causing dizziness, upset stomach, vivid and stranger then normal dreams and so on. My bad.
Seriously, I was so miserable today, it finally occurs to me what an addict goes through, small scale of course, but, still horrible. I know that I am a medically prescribed addict and I now fear missing a dose. It actually started yesterday when I felt like I spent most of the day in a fog(when I wasn't sleeping) I almost fell asleep during a movie yesterday even though I had slept past one and then slept in my chair till almost four. I also fell asleep as soon as I went to bed last night, which I never do. That is of course when the freaky even for me dream started, then I woke up to stumble to the bathroom to vomit and realized that I was much to dizzy to do anything, went back to bed and spent almost the entire day asleep or awake and woozy feeling...blah!!!

My birthday began in a strange way. I went to pick Kitana up at the PATH at 9:00. Two and a half hours later I was still parked by the PATH waiting for Kitana, upset and begiining to believe that she was dead. I tried and tried to reach Tavie, but, she was sound asleep. I finally called Kirsten and had her and her mom searching the internet to figure out any schedual problems, when nothing came of that, I wrote Kitana a note, stuck it in the fence where we usually meet and drove home with tears streaming down my face to get Tavie and tell her that there was no Kitana. I was half way home when Kitana called me to say that she was one stop away and that her bus had been held at the border for two hours. I was so relieved! I couldn't wait to see her and give her a big hug for not being dead, cause that would have been a really sucky start to my birthday. The girl needs a cell phone.
One and a half hours later I was back at PATH with Kitana and Tavie in tow to pick up Sarah and erin. A few hours after that I went back again to retreive Kirsten and her pal Emily. It seemed my birthday would be an endless round trip to the PATH. Instead it was a birthday full of excellant food (cooked by my darling Kirsten), much laughter and teasing and present opening and cupcake eating and Fab Five TV viewing and being able to lean over and occasionally cuddle Kitana.
Emily is such a cutie and so very talented. It was fabulous to watch her and Sarah sketching and now I am the proud owner of two Sarah originals that deserve better then a space on my fridge. Sarah needs to be published. I love her comics. For that matter, erin needs to be showing her stuff too...I love being around gifted people! I just realized that I have not seen Miss Tavie sketching in the longest of times...I think she needs a good kick in her artistic pants.
One of the highlights of the day was being served the birthday cup cakes by a corset wearing Tavie. She looks fantastic! I can't wait till she actually gets to go out and show off her stuff.
After one final trip to return Kirsten and Emily to the PATH, the rest of us indulged in some more creative fun.
I think I want to go drink some of the Canadian Mist that Kitana brought as a part of her Toronto themed gift package full of Roots and Odds t-shirts, Lush bath bombs, leaf shaped bonbons, maple tea (???) and a pin. Then I want to read all the comics and books that I received from Tavie and erin (my Special Sarah CD will arrive later!)
All and all a fantastic way to start the down hill slide into old age! : )
