Made no effort, except telepathically (see ESP Conversation below), to contact J yesterday. Nor did yours truly do so today. Am very proud of self -- and slightest bit lonesome, if compelled to be completely honest. Is not as noticeable, though, as am very busy with new and improved job situation. Been desgining half-assed publications for hours. Love getting caught up in semi-creative efforts.
Had startling conversation with Unhinged Mother Figure (UMF) this morning. Is really quite unconscionable to be required to address such serious topics as "Mom, please get a divorce" and "Please take medication" all before lunch. But did so quite valiantly. Was told by UMF that it was "nice to hear such mature reasoning." Yes, well... have had loads of time to think it over and discard not-so-mature ideas.
Am looking forward to spending weekend in BigCity with gal pal, drinking, dancing, indulging in anything but bicycle riding. J will be in the great-out-of-doors with well, don't know with whom. Am quite sure, though, will be with all burly males who, having met yours truly, will bring to light the error of his ways. And then will, on Monday, receive the ever-so-necessary "let's start again" email.
Hmmm. Yes, this is it. Have gone off deep end of rational thought and am flailing about waters of the completely unhinged. Good thing am terrific swimmer.
