I should be studying up on Ovid, Metamorphoses Book VIII -
I am sitting on the couch typing this.
I should be doing my laundry so that my house isn’t a wreck for girl’s night.
I am wearing yesterday’s jeans.
I should write those thank-you notes

I should sleep more at night.
I am taking [...]

Yesterday=Really Bad Day
8:00 - got up early to put clothes in laundry, intending to be cleanly for work.
8:45 - went down and found my clothes had been taken out mid-cycle and place on top of washer to make room for some guy down the way’s clothes. graciously (but grouchily) left his clothes alone and went [...]

Maybe if I don’t pick up all the clothes on my floor, if I never wash the smell of Virginia and Cori’s house and the Tonkins and the pool and the sunscreen and the beach sand out . . . maybe it will feel like I didn’t leave at all.

There is a load of clean laundry in basket on my living room floor. Okay, so it’s probably two loads, but I did it all in one big toss . . . so much for sorting. My desk is covered with old mail that I haven’t sorted properly. I washed all the dishes in my [...]
