hi everyone. i apologise, in advance, of the millions of type-o's that will grace this email. i did something to the mac....i got the "flashing question mark." you mac users know the one i mean. i don't have any of my start up disks here so i have to type on the pc laptop at work. grr. so how is everyone? i'm.....okay? thursday night was tough. i cried for about 4 hours and woke up on friday morning with my eyes swollen shut. i arrived at work where my boss kept asking why my eyes were all puffy. thank god i have allergies, i just blamed those. saturday morning i did a 3 mile charity walk for celiacs. it was a glorious morning and i was finished in just under an hour. then, at the post walk raffle, i had 2 winning tickets. since i don't have much specific use for hundreds of dollars worth of gluten- free food, i gave it to the family that i work for. the rest of saturday i did fuck all. i watched....i don't remember really. yesterday (sunday) i spent a couple of hours at the cemetery. the first hour and a half i was wandering around trying to find my dad's grave....my grandfather and brother are buried there as well...i haven't been there since...christmas time. when i finally found the site, i found that i was ill prepared. i s'pose it would make sense that the grass hasn't grown in or anything, i just wasn't prepared to see it. there it was, a patchy bit of ground with freshly laid sod atop a mound of dirt. it really upset me. i thought i would get upset there, but also, for some reason, never considered that the ground wouldn't be settled yet. after that i just hung round my house. i watched a dvd documentary on Muhammed, then I watched the Big Chill before getting addicted to the finale of The Bachelor, with my sister and brother in law. i don't why i was so hooked on it last night...i think that the bachelor himself is a total dork, and not in a good way. the one girl from chicago seemed nice and reasonably intelligent (though i would have to wonder what a seemingly nice and reasonably intelligent girl is doing on that show) and the other girl was so,like, stupid, or whatever. each time she spoke i could hear a thousand english professors rolling round in their graves. my uncle jim left me a message last night. i called him a few days ago to discuss the state that i am in. he is a lawyer and, i'm sure, will be of great help in sussing out what i should do regarding my financial situation. oh well. what else? ah, the gig was this weekend, yeah? do tell of the meet ups and all. i am fairly certain that my jinnifer was going...and i would imagine that brian mcneill would be in attendance? hopefully you all had a lovely time. i hope you didn't miss me too much. a propos of nothing (or apprepeaux, hee hee jinnifer), white house press secretary ari fleicher announced his resignation today. he is the only bush-esque guy i liked. i wouldn't say i fancied him per se, i just love to listen to him. he is just so articulate. i wish i were that articulate. i apologise in advance for mark casaroto getting his knickers twisted....i'm sure the above makes me sound all right-wing. so i shall bid you all farewell... love and guacamole to you all...well, most of you :o) ~stine ps.......ash are here tomorrow....i think i may go. tim wheeler...yummy :oP __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
