I am drowning in a ginormous pool of February. It is filling up with days of the week and I'm barely staying afloat after the addition of Wednesday. If I don't make it out before it starts filling with Thursday, you might lose me. It won't be pretty, either. I'm already flailing my arms and reaching for anything that might give me a leg up... SOMEONE THROW ME A ROPE!!!!!!
Seriously though. How do I slow down? I'd give you a list of everything I need to do before
I just need some breathing room, people.
You know what I need? I need a drink. But not just a drink. I need a drink coupled with random conversation in a dimly lit bar as I sit back and barely listen to the conversation at hand. But then the conversation needs to get interesting and DEEP in order to keep my mind from trailing off into the dark hole that holds the pieces of my responsible adult life. And just in case I do accidently get pulled into that dark hole, the conversation also needs to be FUN and it needs to pull LAUGHTER from my voicebox. In a dim bar, with a drink.
You know what else I need? THE FREAKIN' SUN TO SHINE!!!!!! I wonder if THAT has anything to do with how I'm feeling.
I am ready, SO READY, for stifling hot, suffocating HEAT... the kind of heat that everyone complains about after they've complained about winter for NINE MONTHS straight.
I digress.
BTK and I will be leaving in a few SHORT minutes to have dinner with a couple from Bulgaria.

Eww, I want to know about the Bulgarians!
I hope you all drank a lot and had the deep conversation you need...
Well...you could come down HERE where the sun IS shining and WE could sit in a DIM bar with a DRINK and have way DEEP conversation and all of your problems would be solved except for the laughing part. I am known to be "not that funny."
Love to you on this Thursday!
jame... you make me laugh in a way that NO ONE ELSE can :) truly.
I would love to enjoy a conversation or two with you and try to make you laugh. It seems like you are good at making me laugh, funny girl. I always have quite the time fun when we hang out. Especially when a bunch of martinis are involved. Yum! Hope you are surviving Friday.
Love, your OLD sister
Boy, would I just LOVE to have conversation with you in a dim bar while having a few drinks trying to figure out anything and everything. We probably wouldn't accomplish much, but I guarantee we would have a lot of laughs, and by the end of the nite it would feel like we figured out everything!! I know it seems far to you, but I am only a phone call away, and if I got that phone call, I would be there in minutes!! Don't resent being busy and overloaded, many are denied that privelege!
Love, Mom
February is the month that makes me scream WHY DO WE LIVE HERE???
It's good know that other fellow Michiganders are feelin' it too.
