It is so beautiful here today! Very seldom do we get 50 degree days in Chicagoish in February. I highly doubt you will find anyone complaining about this though. It was truly a perfect day. The sun is shining brightly, snow is melting (thank god), and the neighbourhood is full of happy children. The girls and I spent the better part of the day running, jumping, climbing, and laughing at the park. It was just so lovely to be out of the house. My aforementioned associated are now in the throes of napdom, I find myself in envy of them. :o) Today is a long day...I came in at 630 am and will be here til around 130 am or so. Gads! Oh well, God knows I need the money. I would rather work here a few extra hours than resort to solicitation on Rush street. The weekend should be lovely. I have decided to stop being a depressing old mope and go out with friends tomorrow. I think many of them were honestly beginning to question whether or not I was still alive. :o) It isn't that I have been depressed, per se, I just have little of relevence to share of late. I feel that I am a burden on my friends should I continue to talk about how worried I am about my present financial state, as well as dealing with my Father's passing. I just feel a bit like a broken record I s'pose. Does anyone like a broken record? I guess I sort of do. It indicates that said record was well loved, presumably, and got a great deal of appreciation. Perhaps even brought someone great happiness, even if only for a moment or two. I have made a couple of new sinister friends in the past few weeks. they are, as if their were any doubt, amazing people. Jaye, Kevin, and the lovely Alex. Smooches to you all. And Brian McNeill, I haven't seen you post lately....you are probably brushing up your scottish accent to send me one mutha of an audio email :o) Oh well, in the words of REO Speedwagon...It't Time For Me To Fly (who thought of Muzak anyway...damn them!) I wish you all the toadiest of weekends. Have lots o' fun, and, in the words of Oscar Wilde, Party like it's 1999. :o) ~stine __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
