thanks to technology, there are TONS of ways to flail!
I mean, yesterday, I flailed on a blog, via email, via Skype, via cell, via instant messaging, via text message, AND I stood on my deck and sighed deeply.
I covered all my bases.
It was a hell of a day — sometimes life smacks you upside the head and leaves you reeling in ways you weren’t reeling even a day before (say, a Virginia Reel.)
(Oh… small digression: did you ever have to take dance classes in gym/phys ed? Different friends of mine did everything from square dancing to ballroom dancing to hip hop dancing in their classes. I think that might have been fun. Instead, the only dancing I ever did was because I had to pee and my teacher wouldn’t let me leave the extra-long lineup to throw the javelin. I don’t know about you, but I think it’s pretty stupid to hand someone under undue physical stress a large, pointy object and let them have at it. Unless, of course, you’re a pirate. Because that’s just how they roll.)
But every day is a new day, right? Today, for example. Totally new.
Oh, who am I kidding? It’s still there, the feeling, BUT TONIGHT I get to see my attractive and witty friends Jennifer and Jaegen, along with their adorable offspring, Agatha and Edmund:


(note that Edmund is correctly attired in Canucks pjs.)
That should make a lot of things better, all at once.
Thanks for all your support, guys. It makes a rough road easier to take.

I did square dancing in gym for 3 years PLUS in grade 8 gym we learned a “hip hop” dance routine set to Ice, Ice, Baby. Oh, yes. I did the running man. I showed it to my parents later at home. I am so ashamed.
