Spring in January huh? I can dig it.

I’ve almost tried to ignore it however, I’m not sure I can deal with having, and then not having spring right now. I’d almost rather skip fake spring today and hunker down for the worst months of winter to come. Low expectations and all.

Hey, how come no one told me you don’t have to double space at the end of your sentences anymore? I hate it. I can’t do one space. I have to do double. I just tried there and I can’t do it. I’m leaving the double space in between sentences now. Tough loogies.

I’ve been thinking a lot about my social life lately right? Why I tend to be different then some, not seeing my friends all the time, not wanting to go out all the time, etc. Last night John had someone over, I didn’t know they were coming and I hate to admit it, but it kinda ruined my night. We ended up having a nice time of course, but I was still pissy. Part of it is surprise, I like to know exactly what’s ahead of me from day to day. But part of it is I don’t want to be social! Especially in my own home! I see it as a respite, John sees it as a chance to have someone over and feed them and enjoy the company. We’ll have to figure this one out.

But tonight I go “double dipping” with my friend Michael. Michael is another one of my friends I see every 3-4 months. This is how many of my friendships are, and I love them! We go to Barnellis, we get these yummy turkey sub sandwiches, then we “dip” on over to the Portillos side and get cheesefries. We’ve been doing this for a couple of years now and its perfection. We chat and chat and get caught up and then do it again a couple of months from now. I enjoy it. What the hell.

Then home, for a night alone, (my favorite, is that bad?) and watch the Constant Gardener. I read the book, it was my “quit smoking book” that took my mind off of it. So I’m not sure I even knew what I read.

Almost done with Vanity Fair, my “Novel Without a Heroine” has a heroine who is falling apart. Oh my.
