Stock in batteries

The art class is going well - TIRING- but it’s a really great way to make myself draw and get better at drawing. The only thing is that when I get home finally - I am beat. Yesterday food went fairly well. Not crazy about the counting shit thing but hey - it does work if you stick to it…

Which brings us to today. Can you say party at my old boss’s (shit is this correct? or should it be boss’ ? No - that looks fucked up - stick with original) and someone ate like she was going on medifast tomorrow? Yep. I think the slice of cheesecake as well as slice of mango cake (that I bought from the Asian bakery) was probably the determining factors in the downfall. Oh well. There’s always tomorrow!

I drove to Napa earlier in the day to see a client. As I passed the vineyards, my mind began to meander to wonder when I would be sitting shotgun on my way to a romantic weekend, wind blowing in my hair, Peabo Bryson singing ‘Can You Stop the Rain’ on the stereo….heart full of love & lust… Yep. WANDER MIND - WANDER…..

Only you can stop these tears from falling… baby can you stop? Can you stop the rain….. (feel free to hum along)

Then I managed to get my stupid wandering ass LOST and was so aggravated that I drove around in circles for 30 minutes before finding the house that I nearly SPIT! End of WANDERING MIND!!!

On the way back passing those vineyards, this bitter spinster envisioned herself on road leading to SPINSTERDOM! (yeah fuck it - I made that up - you can take those RED DOTS out from under it!)

The party at my (ex) boss’s home was lovely - that lovely little shriveled, alcoholic chimney was in good spirits and I hugged the heck outta her. She made a lovely chicken/shrimp rice dish - Wildchild made sushi (she drank 3/4 a bottle of red by the time I showed up - 20 minutes into it :) and the idiot co-worker I can’t stand was SICK! YES! Her house is lovely, it overlooks a valley and she’s picked up various objects d’art which I really enjoyed admiring. Her fireplace was lit and after all the riff raff left, we retired to the couches around the fireplace - warmed by the warm fire sipping white wine (Wildchild, Boss, hubby) and green tea (me) speculating on changes at the Agency and life in general. It was so cozy and nice.

So now I’m home. I bought some oranges and cherries today. I like to keep fruit on hand in case I get hungry in the car, at work and at home. I’m not worried about the indiscretions today because I know it was situational - tomorrow it’ll be back to reality.

Pondering when I’ll get laid again - let’s see - should we count the number of times I’ve gotten laid in the past 4 years? Twice. You know you can’t count that time last July? WTF? We don’t need to bring that fiasco up again…

Hmmmm, that reminds me -

where is that spare box of batteries?

    I know! I quite feel like that a lot of times. So I just visualize myself doing what I dream to be doing. Who cares whether it can happen or not. Anything can happen! I generally feel much better that way. I know I am deluding myself but it keeps me happy and sane. :)

    love,

    So why are you driving to see a client? I thought all that mess was over with the new job.
    Hey, the party was worth a few food slip-ups; you were comfortable and in good company.
    Hope you found the batteries.

    I’ve found myself with meandering mind a whole lot. It’s good for the creative side of your soul, ya know. :) The party sound like it was fun and I’m glad that art classes are going well. Needing new batteries remind me that I need to take a gander at Adam & Eve to buy myself something for Valentine’s day lol.
