An Alarmingly Good Day
The reason it's so alarming, is because yesterday I was in a pit of misery. I didn't get out of bed, I didn't go to school, I didn't bother suppressing my bitterness in therapy, etc, etc.
But today. N-sensei came, and she had heard about my unhinged state, knowing exactly what to do, she hugged me, rounded me into her civic, even as I was unwashed, and we had delicious pasta. I love her, and she is such a dear woman, I'm so glad she has been placed in my life.
I went home, took a shower, scrounged for clothing, and then Grandma had an appointment to get her "?" shaped stitches. I took photos, it took no time at all. The library used book store is right next door, and we browsed, and even bought. I wound up buying the exact hardcover book on Japanese design I had checked out five years ago. It was delightful.
We almost went home, but took the wrong exit and wound up going to see the lovely Jen! Jen is lovely. We chattered and ate and watched Oprah, and did exercises, and Mom and Jen talked about her new beau, Gram read, I petted a yappy little dog and an elderly cat who aged extremely well. Jen also let me burn some of her extensive musical repertoire to CD~.
We had to go as she had work, but guess where I convinced my Mom to swing by? COMIC BOOK SHOP. I was there for five minutes, trying to contain my geekiness, until convincing Mom to come out of the car and join me. We both had fun and talked about pin-up queens, the Hulk's awesome female cousin, Doctor Who, classic comic strips, and fawned over figures. It was the best. They had to close, so we bade our farewells, but in our hearts promised to make a return trip.
Our last detour before home was Trader Joe's. I found Pirate Joe, a monkey, and got a free organic watermelon lollipop. Mom chatted with the employees, and bought delicious hummus and such. I convinced her to get snap pea chips and mochi as well~
Today was very good. I spent in with my family. Gram got her stitches out and has no cancer.
The end.
