elvendoll: (summertime)

i'm eerily awake this morning.
i don't think i really slept at all overnight - if i did, it was the very light dozing sleep, where i would tune in and our of consciousness. oddly, i usually still feel rested after nights like this - something about just laying still, with my eyes closed, and letting time pass is relaxing.

on the way into work, when the cd tried to go past leonard cohen's a thousand kisses deep, i kept hitting the back button, and now the song is stuck in my head. its almost tempting to go down to the car, fetch the cd and play it here - only i've always held to the opinion that playing one song one repeat is cruel to coworkers.

i had a surprisingly good weekend.
after a pretty bad week, i was very anxious about having so much time to spend alone, but having Saturday almost all to myself, and staying in a good mood, and getting light chores done was very good and empowering.
i managed to watch a good movie, (shit! i still have laundry downstairs!!!), tidy up the living room, kitchen, and the bathroom sink, do a couple of loads of laundry (and i can't believe i totally spaced finishing it : / ) ate a couple of meals, and unlike i planned, got no reading done.
eventually, [livejournal.com profile] tafkar and [livejournal.com profile] quinnclub came by and kidnapped me to 80's night. i wore my really ripped up jeans, glittered them and myself, overdid it a little on the pre-boozin', and had a really good time at the club. one of the things i like about Saturday nights is how much i get to dance - i definitely need more exercise in my life.
due to the fact that i overdid it on the pre-club drinking, the one drink i had there sent me a bit over the edge, i managed to stay coherent and balanced while at the club, but i got dizzyness and spins within a half hour of getting home. i remember not being able to chat anymore, slamming down my laptop, calling him to apologize for signing off abruptly (which he says i didn't do), and then laying down with the purple lights still on.
i had some good and weird dreams overnight, and woke up to [livejournal.com profile] tobi calling my cell, as it was 12:30 and people should've been en route to my house.
noone was, as she was the first person to show up, at 1, and brunch didn't get underway until 2. but, it was a brunch that included 6 hours of conversation, and left me in very high spirits up until the weirdness of the six feet under season finale.

yesterday was one of three bat mitzvah parties for my sister. the first one, and prolly the worst for my parents - it was supposed to be a beach party, only it got rained out and could not be rescheduled, so there were 40 kids running around my mom's house. *shudder* i'm waiting a little before calling her this morning, to give her a chance to sleep in, in case abi hasn't woken her up already.
she also told me a baby deer was left in our gazebo late last week. i gave my mom the phone number for a local animal rescue group and totally forgot to ask about it again. ever since last night's six feet under, i'm really curious about what happened.

my primary email server is down... i've redirected my mail, but anything sent to me over the weekend didn't reach me, so if anyone happened to have sent me anything, resending it will make sure i read it.

from the looks of it, it might actually be nice out today. yay
tonight, i will make an attempt to spend time on the back porch, reading, before the sun goes down. yeah.
