I'm up

I'm feeling better than I did yesterday. My throat hurts, and my sinuses are still not normal, and I'm still a bit weak, but other than that, I feel great! ;-)

I'll be fine by Monday. :-|

Sound

Sounds travel through space long after their waves can be heard by the human ear.
Sound is eternal.
Sound is the raw material of music,
and music is the raw material of self-expression,
and self-expression is the the raw material of self-identity.
Find yourself in the sound.
Lose yourself in the sound.
Listen to the sound of your lover's heartbeat
and in between you'll hear the sound that started the universe.
Sound goes on forever -
which is why each of us should make the sweetest sound we possibly can.

I'm not as up as I thought

I'm still weaker than I realized.

I have some kind of flu-like virus.

Thanks to all for your get well wishes.

Two out of three ain't good.

My grandma was back in the hospital, briefly, again today. She moved into the nursing home on Friday. This morning she apparently had some sort of attack - another stroke, we guess. Within three hours, she was discharged, so I guess she is doing fine. We're a little more worried about the long-term ramifications. What if this is likely to happen again? She had been hoping to move out of the nursing home, and back into her apartment in a couple of weeks.

My dad doesn't expect to have a job as of Monday. Rockwell is making a huge amount of cuts, and he thinks it is likely that the entire marketing department (14 people) will be let go. They were already sending a lot of their work downtown. He's 58. Not likely he'll get another job. On the bright side, if this happens, he'll be able to work the gallery full time. That's important because he is moving into a new location, and he will have to devote more time to it. And he can do freelance work (graphic design stuff).

At least Nahima is back.

If I were a flavor, what would I taste like?

Yum! I'm mocha. Intense, rich, and a little complex, I'm as tasty as they come.

umm...

Thanks Blonnie... I guess... ;-)
