Ugh. I despise arguments and disagreements. The one I am currently having is making me ill. But I think maybe it is over. I have been listening to Counting Crows, “Have You Seen Me Lately” a lot. The version from the unplugged CD. I do that when I feel badly about hurting someone’s feelings. I don’t know why, but the song just seems to fit, or something weird like that.
I think we will be ok though. I hope so, because I will really need the friendly face in California.
Daniel (and Robbie) fly on the Vomit Comet today. The boy says he got a haircut, but I won’t believe it until I see him. I told him I’d be there at 11:30 when the plane lands, and I’d take him out to the tradition post-flight lunch at Pe-te’s. If he really did get his hair cut, I even offered to pay. Boy needs a hair cut! We went swimming the other day and when wet, his hair in the back was as long as mine.
Last night was fun. I didn’t really do anything special. After work I went to Target and got a bunch of random things, then I came home and packed it all in a box and this morning, I shipped it. Away it goes. Then I sat around and worked on my knitting. Phil says he keeps hoping to see me just clicking the needles and having yarn fall away like water, like you see in the cartoons when an old grandma is knitting at light speed. Unfortunately, that’s not how it works. The other night I got really frustrated, and ended up just starting over, because the yarn started to get all frayed and I kept on missing stitches. And Jen is gone and can’t help me anymore. Poop.
