Friday. It went by, I guess that's the best I can say for it. Overslept, missed most of my member work shift, then stepped into an overwhelmingly busy night in the deli cafe. Gallery walk night and a holiday weekend. Cafe stuffed with teenagers. Should have had two people on.. one to run the register, and another to clean up after everyone and keep all the supplies well-stocked. *sigh* At least it's only that bad one Friday out of each month. I can grit my teeth and bear it, since I know the next week will likely be quieter.

Other than work it's been a pleasant evening. Spent some time talking with J when I got down to Northampton.. the drive sucked, torrential downpours leaving VT all the way down to Whately. Being able to see while driving is definitely a plus.
Nice to be able to chill here tonight. Good catch-up time, when he wasn't nodding off. *grin*
It's alright, I know my late hours don't gel well with the morning people. They're off on vacation for a week.. so I torment and feed the cats in their absence. Should be a good week, all things considered.

Spent a lovely evening with A on Thursday night.. went out to the Harvest Bistro down the street from my apartment, hung out, played with the birds, wandered through the cemetery.. giggled a lot. *happy sigh*

It's been a mixed week, overall. Should have gotten caught up with some things.. didn't bother. I've been a self-destructive puddle of nerve endings all week. Spent too much time Monday night reading LJ entries, noting an absence, which played right into my crying fit on Tuesday. Worry still eats at me. Nothing I can do, and I hate it so much. I'm so grateful for the understanding that helps me process my upset. Something so simple, and in a way I feel validated, like it's okay for me to miss him so much and still be so worried. Don't know what I can do.. feel like I need to do something, anything.. until someone tells me very rationally that doing anything about it is a bad idea, and that I need to just be patient and wait. So... I'm waiting. Keeping my word, and waiting. Aaargh.
Okay, enough with the ranting uselessly.. this is here more to let the few people who know what I'm talking about who care that yes, I've been depressed. I'll be alright, and yes, hugs help. Thank you.

Wednesday was most pleasant, hung out in Dummerston with Sage. Cherry lambic, good conversation, iTunes for a few hours and waking up to espresso. Much needed decompression.

I'll hang out with my family in CT on Saturday evening, work on Sunday, figure out what I'm doing on Monday, hooray for paid holidays... and tackle the week from there. I'm really looking forward to this next weekend.. visit family in NH next Sat, then head to CT on Sunday to go see the Moody Blues and catch up with Dave. Wahoo!

Do something radical on the 4th. Promote our independence as a nation from liars, murderers and war-mongers. Talk with your family and friends about what Independence means to you on a personal level. Voice your dissent openly, and listen to other points of view with an open mind.. let's find some real solutions by figuring out what we have in common. Boycott blind patriotism and promote thoughtful discourse.. you know... democracy.

Later.

-Me.
