last night i had two stalkers.
i went home from work just briefly enough to grab my grocery list, and headed to the store. on my way out of the fabulousness, i passed jason and debbie, who were also on their way out somewhere. they followed me out the gate, up to the traffic light, down el camino…and it was at this point that i realized they had decided to simply follow me. i continued to the grocery store, they pulled into the parking lot right along with me, and spent the next half hour following me up and down the aisles, critiquing my choices of bananas, hamburger meat, and taboule mix. it was amusing, if a bit strange. afterward, they came over, debbie fixed “american tacos” and we watched american idol. quite a funny show.
christina wrote something in her blog that made me realize how quickly and yet how slowly time passes. she was remembering fall 2000, which was the semester we really became good friends. only two short years ago, and yet it feels like i’ve known her for ages. but now that we don’t live in the same city, i’m losing touch. as i am with many people. i am always torn over whether this is a fact of life, or whether it’s something i could control if i tried harder. i don’t know.
anyway. tonight we’re having a planning meeting for yuri’s night, a big space party to be held on april 12, the anniversary of yuri gagarin becoming the first human in space. i volunteered to be the webmaster, surprise surprise. i have some cool ideas for the design and layout, and i hope i’ll have time to actually accomplish them.
a week ago i was climbing a mountain.
