long weekend. too long.
life feels like a chore right now.
trouble everywhere i turn.
at least today is starting well.
here are the highlights� ** my dad is doing much better.
he was up & moving yesterday (took 2 walks)
they were hoping to get the last of the tubes out last night.
when i left he had the game on & morphine on demand.
both were bringing him pleasure.
it was good to see him being more like himself again.
i think he is beginning to get his optimism back. **did well in the slam semi-finals last night.
it was a hard slam.
tough to tell who was going to advance to the finals.
even the poet in last place was kickin� butt last night.
those are the best slams.
the ones where anyone could win & everyone reads well.
that is what slam should be all about. ** had a rough weekend early on
my wife & i have been butting heads over free time.
who goes out when, who stays home with the child.
who gets what free time when.
the things most people with kids deal with.
we try to take turns but things get mixed up.
things come up & times get screwy.
small misunderstandings become major troubles.
took time to get things worked out.
relationships take work. i forget that sometimes.
[i forget things. i�m old, it happens. deal with it] **i should be leaving for chicago on thursday.
still don�t know if i am or not.
need to make sure that my dad is all set
& that i can afford to take the trip (both $$ and mental)
should know by tomorrow.
part of me really wants to go.
part of me just wants to sleep.
we�ll see what happens. as for tonight, baby duty & relaxing in front of the TV.
i�m tired physically, mentally, & emotionally.
coffee & some dumb film should fix part of that.
see what comes tomorrow. (& what the hell is up with the weather?!>
i hear we might get SNOW tonight!!
if it snows i�ll take a hostage, i swear.
it was 90 last week, what the fuck?!?
i�m hiding under a blanket tonight)
